Brief summary

This is a single-center randomized controlled trial in comparison of Parylene-Coated versus Silicone Catheters in the Prevention of Urinary Tract Infections and Crystallization.

Detailed description

This study was a single-center randomized controlled trial, enrolling patients with indwelling urinary catheterization time greater than 2 weeks, and comparing the incidence of urinary tract infections in the two groups with different indwelling urinary catheter times by retaining mid-stream urine specimens for bacterial cultures on the 3rd, 7th, 10th, and 14th days after urinary catheter placement. And after removal of the urinary catheter,1-cm sections were taken from the head end and center of each urinary catheter, and the crystal deposition inside the catheter was observed using a scanning electron microscope. The incidence of urinary tract infections and crystal deposition on the inner wall of the catheter were compared between the patients in the matte catheter group (Parylene-coated) and the patients in the glossy catheter group (plain silicone) during the period of catheterization, so as to evaluate the effectiveness of the two types of catheters in the clinical application.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infection (CAUTI) Incidencethe Day 3,Day 7, Day 10 and Day 14 after catheterizationThe mid-stream urine specimens on the 3rd, 7th, 10th and 14th days after catheterization were taken for bacterial culture to compare the incidence of urinary tract infections in the two groups at different times of indwelling urinary catheterization. Diagnostic criteria: patients with urinary tract infections that occurred after indwelling urinary catheterization, or within 48 h of catheter removal. Urine bacterial culture of Gram-positive cocci colonies ≥104cfu/ml and Gram-negative bacilli colonies ≥105cfu/ml was judged as urinary tract infection.
Crystal deposits on the inner wall of the catheterDay 14 after catheterization① After removing the urinary catheter, a 1-cm section was taken from the head end and the center of each urinary catheter, and the crystal deposition inside the catheter was observed using a scanning electron microscope, and the average scores of the two groups were calculated according to the scores in the table below, comparing the effectiveness of the two groups of urinary catheters in preventing crystallization. ② Record the details and number of blockages that occurred during the indwelling catheterization period, and calculate the blockage rate of the two groups.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Evaluation of urethral irritation responseDay 1 after catheterizationPatients were asked about their feelings after 24h of indwelling catheterization, and the occurrence of urethral irritation reaction was recorded according to their subjective feelings.
Measuring the temperature of bladder urinethe Day 3,Day 7, Day 10 and Day 14 after catheterizationThe temperature of bladder urine was detected and recorded by connecting the machine end of the temperature measuring probe to the corresponding interface of the monitor on the 3rd, 7th, 10th, and 14th days after the patient's indwelling urinary catheter.
