About this study

Official title: A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Antimicrobial Coated (Silver Sulfadiazine) Ureteral Stents With Non-coated Stents

This study will be conducted to compare the efficacy of antimicrobial coated ureteral stent with non-coated stents in prevention of UTI in patients with ureteral stents

Read the detailed description

The efficacy of antimicrobial coated of ureteral stent with silver sulphadiazine in prevention of UTI in patients with ureteral stents will be studied by comparining the results of urine and stent cultures with patients who had non-coated ureteral stents. The impact of antimicrobeal stent coating on patients' quality of life will be evaluated with comparing the scores of ureteral stent symptom questionnaire between both groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of urinary tract infection (UTI)

    UTI will be diagnosed with urine and stent culture of stent removal

    Measured: up to 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Quality of life

    The impact of stent coating on quality of life will be assissed with ureteral stent symptom questionnaire (USSQ)

    Measured: up to 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Antimicrobeal coated stents in people with Quality of Life, run by Mansoura University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 6 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 13 Sep 2016. 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 Egypt. 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?

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?

Incidence of urinary tract infection (UTI) (time frame: up to 3 months). 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 13 Sep 2016.
