Trial summary

CRBD is related to different degrees of irritation caused by the volume of the balloon in the urinary catheter, and when CRBD occurs, it may cause severe postoperative pain and trauma by self-removal of the catheter, further leading complications. Read more about this study

About this study

CRBD is related to different degrees of irritation caused by the volume of the balloon in the urinary catheter, and when CRBD occurs, it may cause severe postoperative pain and trauma by self-removal of the catheter, further leading complications. Although many drugs can improve CRBD, measures that can be immediately intervened by non-nursing staff at any time and even have different side effects on patients due to drug use.Therefore, the author wants to use this study to explore the reduction of catheter balloon volume can effectively reduce the degree of CRBD, is a non-invasive and immediately executable nursing treatment.the quality of clinical care and hospitalization of the patient can be further improved, reducing the patient's inappropriate, thereby improving the quality of medical care.

Read the detailed description

Catheter-Related Bladder Discomfort (CRBD) has been attached importance in recent years. Reducing the discomfort of patients with effective treatment is a part of our medical and nursing care that needs to be paid more attention to. The literature has pointed out that CRBD is related to different degrees of irritation caused by the volume of the balloon in the urinary catheter, and when CRBD occurs, it may cause severe postoperative pain and trauma by self-removal of the catheter, further leading to urethral injury and subsequent urethral stricture, and complications such as bleeding, surgical wound dehiscence, and arrhythmia. Although many drugs can improve CRBD, measures that can be immediately intervened by non-nursing staff at any time and even have different side effects on patients due to drug use.

In the past 20 years, only one piece of literature has discussed the effect of catheter balloon volume on CRBD, and the sample size is relatively small and even not related to the Asian region. Therefore, the author wants to use this study to explore the reduction of catheter balloon volume can effectively reduce the degree of CRBD, the investigators will collect in different procedure(stone procedure, herniarraphy, nephrectomy), and the investigators used different urinary catheter balloon size(10ml and 5ml), tp investigate the patient with the severity of catheter-related bladder discomfort.In addition to reducing the side effects of patients due to drug use, is a non-invasive and immediately executable nursing treatment.

Further, if post-evidence nursing intervention can effectively reduce the CRBD generated, thereby increasing the patient's comfort, and allowing the patient to cooperate more with the treatment to achieve an effective therapeutic effect, thereby improving the quality of care and the enlargement of recovery.

Eventually, the quality of clinical care and hospitalization of the patient can be further improved, reducing the patient's inappropriate, thereby improving the quality of medical care.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Urinary catheter balloon sizeProcedure or surgery

    The investigators will collect 120 participants divided into two groups ,in different procedure(stone procedure, herniarraphy, nephrectomy), and the investigators used different urinary catheter balloon size(10ml and 5ml), tp investigate the patient with the severity of catheter-related bladder discomfort.

What is being measured

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

  1. Degree of Catheter-related Bladder Discomfort

    Likert scale 0.1.2.3,the minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 3. The larger the number, the more serious the discomfort is.

    Measured: Return to the ward after surgery 0 hours.3 hours.12 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Visual analog scale for pain severity

    0 to 10,the minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 10. The larger the number, the more serious the discomfort is.

    Measured: Return to the ward after surgery 0 hours.3 hours.12 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Urinary catheter balloon size in people with Catheter-Related Bladder Discomfort and Urinary Catheter, run by Buddhist Tzu Chi General Hospital.

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 9 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 21 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

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 Ou Shiuan-Ru, Head Nurse (+886 38561825, qp761009@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Degree of Catheter-related Bladder Discomfort (time frame: Return to the ward after surgery 0 hours.3 hours.12 hours). 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 21 Sep 2023.
