About this study
Official title: Comparison of Urodynamic Volume Measurements Using Room and Body Temperature Saline
The purpose of this study is to compare first urge, strong urge, and maximum capacity, and perception of discomfort during urodynamic testing between room temperature and body temperate saline. Twenty-four non-pregnant females referred to the urogynecology clinic for bladder testing will be enrolled into the study. Each patient will serve as her own control, undergoing the bladder testing with both room temperature and body temperature saline.
Read the detailed description
This is a prospective observational study. Patient scheduled to undergo evaluation of urinary incontinence by urodynamics in the gynecology clinic will be asked to participate. Patients will be counseled and consent forms signed. The nurse will open the envelope which randomizes the order of instillation and set up the first fluid. Normal saline in 1000ml bags are used for instillation. The bags being used for body temperature fluid will be heated using an Olympic Warmette to between 98 and 99 degrees as determined by 3M Tempadot Thermometers. Urodynamics will be performed using standard clinic protocol recording first sensation, first urge, and maximum capacity. The patient will ask to comment on the discomfort of the test using a 5 point Lickert scale for both pain and urgency (see attached questions). Patients will be allowed to void. The bladder will be filled again with the second solution with identical questions used to determine first sensation, first urge and maximum capacity. During each filling the patient will be tested for stress incontinence at 200 and 300 mls as per our protocol. Following the instillation of the second solution the patient will again be asked her perception of pain and urgency an identical scale. Maximum bladder capacities from each temperature saline tested will then be compared against maximum bladder capacity as estimated from the patients' bladder diary. The patient will then be managed as is appropriate for her test results.

A Phase 4 study testing Urodymanics in people with Urinary Incontinence, run by Tripler Army Medical Center 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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jul 2006. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact micah j hill, D.O. (808-433-5943, micah.hill@haw.tamc.amedd.army.mil), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
first urge. 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?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00355433, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 24 Jul 2006.
