About this study

Official title: Midstream Urine Collection Device Compared to Catheterized Sample: Contamination and Patient Satisfaction.

Urine culture and microscopic urinalysis will be compared between 2 collection methods: PEEZY midstream urine collection, and urethral catheter collection.

Read the detailed description

Female patients presenting to the Baylor Scott \& White Health (Temple, TX) Urology clinic for complaints of lower urinary tract symptoms will be included. They will be approached by a clinical research coordinator and given more information. If they meet eligibility by screening, consents will be completed.

Patients will proceed with their regular clinic visit with their clinician. Just prior to the physical exam, patients will use the PEEZY device to give a urine specimen in the privacy of the bathroom. The package with PEEZY includes the simple instructions for use. Patients return to the clinic room and the physical exam proceeds. An in-and-out catheter is used to obtain a post-void residual as well as a control urine specimen. After the remainder of the patient routine exam is complete, they will fill out a brief questionnaire.

The 2 specimens will then be delivered to the lab. The clinical research coordinator will store consents and questionnaires that include the subjects study identification number in individual opaque envelopes that will be kept in a locked drawer accessible to only the investigators.

What participants receive

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

  • Midstream urine collection deviceDevice

    Also called PEEZY

    Non-invasive midstream urine collection device

  • Catheter for urine collectionDevice

    Also called Straight catheter

    In-and-out catheter obtains urine through the urethra.

What is being measured

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

  1. Contamination of urine specimen with urethral and vaginal flora

    Contamination defined as: presence of urethral or vaginal flora on urine culture OR epithelial cell presence in urinalysis

    Measured: 2 specimens from each subject (1 from each arm) will be taken to the lab for urinalysis and culture immediately after specimens are given. Culture results will be reported in 48 hours. After results are recorded, no further assessment of this outcome.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Visual Analog Scale (this is the only title for this scale)

    On a questionnaire: patient rates level of distress experienced during each urine donation method. The scale is from 1 to 10. On this scale 10 is associated with the word "agonizing", 8 is associated with "horrible", 4 is associated with "uncomfortable", 2 is associated with "annoying", and 0 is associated with "None". Unbearable distress is marked near 10. No distress is marked near 0. On this scale responses can only be reported as a number from 0-10, and a lower number indicates a better outcome. There are no subscales.

    Measured: Performed one time immediately after intervention. This will not be repeated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Midstream urine collection device and Catheter for urine collection in people with Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms and Lower Urinary Tract Infection, run by Baylor Research Institute at 1 site in United States.

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 3 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 5 Jun 2019. 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 United States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Contamination of urine specimen with urethral and vaginal flora (time frame: 2 specimens from each subject (1 from each arm) will be taken to the lab for urinalysis and culture immediately after specimens are given. Culture results will be reported in 48 hours. After results are recorded, no further assessment of this outcome.). 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 5 Jun 2019.
