About this study

Official title: Comparison of Air-filled and Water-filled Catheters for Use in Cystometric Assessment

A comparative study was conducted and the patient underwent a conventional urodynamic study. In order to successfully determine if the Air-Charged (AC) and Water-Perfused (WP) measurements are equivalent, the two sources of intravesical pressure (Pves) and abdominal pressure (Pabd) were collected concurrently at various fill volumes for the bladder.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study was to compare the use of water-filled and air-charged catheters in determining equivalency between the two technologies during cystometric assessment.

A total of 25 patients (9M/16F) were recruited. All patients underwent cough and Valsalva manoeuvre pressure tests to measure vesicle pressure (Pves) and abdominal pressure (Pabd). A single dual-lumen catheter (T-DOC 7Fr Air-Charged® catheter) was used to record air and water pressures simultaneously.

The primary outcome was to determine if the maximum pressures during Valsalva manoeuvres, as measured with a single dual-lumen water-perfused and air-charged catheter, are equivalent when the bladder is filled to 200 cc during a urodynamic evaluation.

Exploratory endpoints included the following:

  1. To determine if maximum pressures for cough, as measured with a single dual-lumen water-perfused and air-charged catheter, are equivalent when the bladder is filled to 100, 200 and Maximum Bladder Capacity (MBC) cc during a urodynamic evaluation.
  2. To determine if maximum pressures for Valsalva manoeuvres, as measured with a single dual-lumen water-perfused and air-charged catheter, are equivalent when the bladder is filled to 100 and MBC cc during a urodynamic evaluation (as well as 200 cc which is the primary objective).
  3. To determine if the maximum voiding pressure, as measured with a single dual-lumen water-perfused and air-charged catheter, are equivalent.
  4. To determine if the clinical impressions of the urodynamic study are equivalent for the water-perfused and air-charged catheters.
  5. To determine if the compliance of the bladder is equivalent when measured by air-charged catheters as compared to water-perfused catheters.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Vesical Pressure During Valsalva Manoeuvres

    Maximum vesical pressure during Valsalva manoeuvres was measured with an air-filled catheter and the water pressure was measured from the fill port. Air-filled catheter and water pressure measurements were compared.

    Measured: Measured during a single urodynamic evaluation

  2. Maximum Abdominal Pressure During Valsalva Manoeuvres

    Maximum abdominal pressure during Valsalva manoeuvres was measured with an air-filled catheter and the water pressure was measured from the fill port. Air-filled catheter and water pressure measurements were compared.

    Measured: Measured during a single urodynamic evaluation

  3. Maximum Detrusor Pressure at Valsalva Manoeuvres

    Maximum detrusor pressure during Valsalva manoeuvres was measured with an air-filled catheter and the water pressure was measured from the fill port. Air-filled catheter and water pressure measurements were compared.

    Measured: Measured during a single urodynamic evaluation

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Maximum Vesical Pressure During Coughs

    Maximum vesical pressure during coughs was measured with an air-filled catheter and the water pressure was measured from the fill port. Air-filled catheter and water pressure measurements were compared.

    Measured: Measured during a single urodynamic evaluation

  2. Maximum Abdominal Pressure During Coughs

    Maximum abdominal pressure during coughs was measured with an air-filled catheter and the water pressure was measured from the fill port. Air-filled catheter and water pressure measurements were compared.

    Measured: Measured during a single urodynamic evaluation

  3. Maximum Detrusor Pressure During Coughs

    Maximum detrusor pressure during coughs was measured with an air-filled catheter and the water pressure was measured from the fill port. Air-filled catheter and water pressure measurements were compared.

    Measured: Measured during a single urodynamic evaluation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing TDOC air-charged catheter in people with Urodynamics, run by Laborie Medical Technologies Inc. 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 1 inclusion and 4 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 31 Jan 2020. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Sep 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Maximum Vesical Pressure During Valsalva Manoeuvres (time frame: Measured during a single urodynamic evaluation). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 31 Jan 2020.
