Trial summary

This will be a descriptive study measuring the post-void residual of patients in the third trimester and postpartum. Also, bladder scan values will be compared to the amount of urine obtained from a Foley catheter to determine the accuracy of the bladder scanner in the third trimester and postpartum.

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT00782730
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Bladder Scan GroupPatients who agree to enroll in the trial and allow their known bladder volumes and residual bladder volumes to be measured by actual volumes retrograde instilled, and also by bladder scanner ultrasound.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Define normal post-void residual volume in third trimester pregnancy and post-partum.

    Measured: 12-24 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Calculate the validity of measurements form the bladder scanner ultrasound for bladder volumes during the third trimester of pregnancy and post-partum.

    Measured: 12-24 hours
