About this study

Official title: Interest of Rocamed Urethral Device for Treatment of Acute or Chronic Urinary Retention in Males

Prospective non randomized study of the feasibility of the insertion of Rocamed urethral device by hand manipulation, i.e., without use of cystoscopy, sonography or fluoroscopy. Patients with an acute urinary retention treated by Foley catheterization in the Emergency department have a few days later a trial of Foley removal in the ambulatory unit of the Urology department. In case of failure of the Foley removal trial, i.e., recurrence of urinary retention, patients will be proposed either the insertion of a new Foley or insertion of the urethral device. After signature of an informed consent, insertion of the urethral device will be performed after instillation in the urethra of a local anesthetic gel. Device insertion success rate and complications will be studied. The device will be left in place for one month. Tolerance and complications during the month with the device in place will be studied. At one month the device will be removed: the ease of retrieval of the device and complications will be studied. Patient and doctor satisfaction with the urethral device will be compared to patient and doctor satisfaction with the Foley.

What participants receive

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

  • Exime is the name of the single use temporary prostatic stent used instead of the Foley catheterDevice

    Insertion after instillation of a local lubricant anesthetic gel in the urethra like for Foley insertion. Calibration of the urethral meatus with a 22F Bougie. Insertion of the Bougie until abutment against the posterior wall of the bulbous urethra just below the striated sphincter. Note depth of abutment on the scale of the Bougie. Retrieve the Bougie and glide the device to the same depth until abutment against the posterior wall of the bulbous urethra. At this stage the stent is correctly positioned. Stent release: unlock the Luer connection between pusher tube and stylet . Retrieve pusher tube, stylet and flattener tube.

    Control of correct positioning: ask patient to stand up to verify the absence of any urine leak. Ask patient to void immediately to control clear urine output.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of patients in whom the device will be inserted only by hand manipulation

    Measured: Day 0

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Patient tolerance during device insertion: analogic visual scale 0-10 (0 : no pain / 10 : worst pain imaginable)

    Measured: Day 0 (Day of device insertion)

  2. Patient tolerance during one month: analogic visual scale 0-10 (0 : excellent tolerance / 10 : intolerable)

    Measured: 1 Month

  3. Flowmetry with device in place ml/sec

    Measured: Day 0 (Day of device insertion)

  4. Patient tolerance during retrieval of the device : analogic visual scale 0-10 (0 : no pain / 10 : worst pain imaginable)

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Exime is the name of the single use temporary prostatic stent used instead of the Foley catheter in people with Urinary Retention, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

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 6 inclusion and 5 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 1 Sep 2021. 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 France. 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?

Percentage of patients in whom the device will be inserted only by hand manipulation (time frame: Day 0). 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 1 Sep 2021.
