About this study

Official title: Evaluation of a Novel Medical Device to Facilitate Gel Instillation During Change of Long-term Indwelling Urinary Catheters - a Randomized Controlled Study

A randomized, open label, controlled, parallel group study to investigate difference between regional standard procedure and a novel modified procedure (using an additional novel device to facilitate gel installation) for changing long-term indwelling urinary catheters.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized, open label, controlled, parallel group study, which comprises one visit that includes: assessment for eligibility, randomization to one of two treatment alternatives, followed by the actual intervention and evaluation of outcomes.

The interventions are either change of catheter according to the regional standard procedure (the comparator group) or change of catheter with the additional use of the novel device to facilitate gel instillation and a slightly modified procedure (the experimental group).

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Novel gel installation device procedure and Standard procedure in people with Urinary Catheters and Retention, Urinary, run by Region Skane at 1 site in Sweden.

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 3 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 20 Oct 2017. 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 Sweden. 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?

Treatment duration (min) (time frame: During procedure). 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 20 Oct 2017.
