About this study

Official title: Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infections

According to the Israeli Ministry of Health requirement, this study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of the UroShield system is patients that require urinary catheterization. This was designed to compare standard treatment (urinary catheter alone) with the UroShield treatment in occurrence of catheter associated Urinary Tract infection, pain, discomfort, Biofilm prevention and trauma.

Read the detailed description

This study is aimed at assessing the effectiveness of the NanoVibronix™ UroShield™ System in comparison to Urinary catheter alone in patients requiring urinary catheterization.

  1. Primary objectives
  • To observe the effect of UroShield in reduction of patient's complaints relating to indwelling Urinary Catheters
  • Pain
  • Discomfort
  • To observe the effect of UroShield in the reduction/prevention of Biofilm
  • To observe the effect of UroShield on the occurrence of bacteriuria and/or UTI's on patients with Indwelling Urinary Catheters
  1. Safety Objective To assess the safety parameters of the UroShield system
  2. Secondary Objectives
  • To observe the effect of UroShield in reduction of Foley Catheter related pain medication in patients with Indwelling Urinary Catheters
  • To observe the effect of UroShield in reduction of antibiotic medication in patients with Indwelling Urinary Catheter
  • To observe the effect of UroShield on the clogging of Urinary Catheter when used chronically and the need to replace the catheter
  • To observe the effect of UroShield on the decrease of Tissue damage of patients with Indwelling Urinary Catheters by measuring cell count before and after removal of catheter

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing UroSshield in people with Urinary Tract Infection, run by Nanovibronix at 1 site in Israel.

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 7 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 25 Mar 2009. 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 Israel. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Ofer Shenfeld, MD (972-2-6555560, shenfeld@szmc.org.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

primary end points (time frame: up to 14 days). 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 25 Mar 2009.
