Trial summary

There has been preliminary data showing that pyridium can decrease the risk of difficulty urinating after midurethral sling. This study is designed to have two groups of patients. One group will receive pyridium pre-operatively, while the other group will have routine preoperative care. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Randomized Control Trial Assessing Pyridium for Post-Sling Urinary Retention

There has been preliminary data showing that pyridium can decrease the risk of difficulty urinating after midurethral sling. This study is designed to have two groups of patients. One group will receive pyridium pre-operatively, while the other group will have routine preoperative care. Both groups will have their bladder tested prior to going home. It will be evaluated if there is a difference in the difficulty to urinate post-operatively in both groups.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective randomized controlled trial. It will have two arms with 48 patients in each arm, a total of 98 patients. Patients will be randomized with a block randomization schedule generated by computerized random numbers using a 1:1 allocation to pyridium and routine perioperative care. The study is powered to see a difference in incidence of urinary retention after midurethral sling using 25% as the historic control for our institution. Statistical sample size was based on a decrease in incidence to 5% in the pyridium arm. This is with 80% power and alpha 0.05. After the patient's surgery, including a midurethral sling, the patient will have an active voiding trial performed as described by Pulvino et al. The patient's bladder will be backfilled with 300cc of sterile saline. If the patient cannot tolerate 300cc, the patient will be filled to maximum capacity. The patient will be allowed 20 minutes to void. The patient must void greater than two thirds the volume that was instilled in the bladder to consider it a passed voiding trial. The timing of the voiding trial will be at the discretion of the surgeon, accounting for factors such as complexity of concomitant surgery, the patient being alert, ambulating, with tolerable pain.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants Considered to Have Passed Their Voiding Trial

    Pyridium affect - A patient's bladder is backfilled with water prior to having foley removed. If they can void 200cc of 300cc instilled in the bladder, they are considered to have past their voiding trial.

    Measured: Day 1

  2. Incidence of Urinary Retention

    Incidence of participants that do not pass their voiding trial and go home with an indwelling foley

    Measured: Day 1

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Pain Scale

    Pain scale from 0-10. 0-being no pain, 10-being the most pain

    Measured: Day 1: 6-8 hours after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Phenazopyridine in people with Urinary Retention, run by Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai 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 4 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 29 Oct 2019. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Oct 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants Considered to Have Passed Their Voiding Trial (time frame: Day 1). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 29 Oct 2019.
