What participants receive

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

  • balloon catheter for suprapubic bladder-drainageDevice

    Also called UROMED, suprapubic tube, suprapubic device

    suprapubic tube removal was allowed when the anastomosis was watertight, Day 5

  • balloon catheter for transurethral bladder-drainageDevice

    Also called UROMED

    transurethral catheter withdrawal was allowed when the anastomosis was watertight, Day 5

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of postoperative pain related to urinary drainage objectified by numeric rating scale (NRS) questionnaire within 5 days

    To analyse the development of the postoperative pain related to urinary drainage patients completed NRS questionnaire three times a day: in the morning, at noon and in the evening until discharge of the catheter (regular 5 days after the surgery)

    Measured: postoperatively on day 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 in the morning, at noon and in the evening

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of patients with bacteriuria

    Second void urine sample after catheter removal

    Measured: 5th day after the surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing balloon catheter for suprapubic bladder-drainage and balloon catheter for transurethral bladder-drainage in people with Prostate Cancer, run by St. Antonius Hospital Gronau at 1 site in Germany.

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 5 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Apr 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change of postoperative pain related to urinary drainage objectified by numeric rating scale (NRS) questionnaire within 5 days (time frame: postoperatively on day 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 in the morning, at noon and in the evening). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Apr 2014.
