Trial summary

Thirty patients who underwent radical cystectomy and bladder substitution and thirty people with native bladders will be enrolled in the study. After meticulous explanations each person will undergo sterile catheterization of the bladder/neobladder with a 14 Fr Foley catheter. Read more about this study

About this study

Thirty patients who underwent radical cystectomy and bladder substitution and thirty people with native bladders will be enrolled in the study. After meticulous explanations each person will undergo sterile catheterization of the bladder/neobladder with a 14 Fr Foley catheter. After catheterization the bladder will be fully emptied. Randomly assigned volume of sterile saline will be injected to the bladder via the catheter by one sub investigator and the bladder capacity will be measured via a portable ultrasound scanner for non-invasive bladder volume measurement (BladderScan BVI3000) by another sub investigator. The volume injected and the measured results will remain in a closed envelope till the completion of the trial. After each measurement the first sub investigator will completely empty the bladder/neobladder and the process will repeat itself for a total of six measurements for each patient or first mention of discomfort (whichever comes first), after which the bladder will be drained once more and the catheter removed.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Uri Lindner, M.D (972-3-5302701, uri.lindner@sheba.health.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Efficacy and Accuracy of a Portable Ultrasound Scanner for Non-Invasive Bladder Volume Measurement (BladderScan BVI3000) in Patients After Radical Cystectomy and Bladder Reconstruction (time frame: 12 Month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00512174, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
