Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Number of Participants With Urinary Tract Infection
Urinary tract infection (UTI) will be diagnosed based on urine culture positive at 50,000CFUs per mL with one or both of the following: fever \>38 Celsius, or significant fussiness and irritability with voiding per parent report. Asymptomatic bacteriuria is known and expected in this population; therefore culture positive results alone will not be sufficient to meet the definition of UTI.
4-8 days post-operation
Study Arms (2)
Antibiotics Group
EXPERIMENTALPatients randomized to this arm will receive prophylactic oral antibiotics following the surgery and catheter placement (Septra, 3 mg/kg/dose once daily), and will continue the medication for until the day before catheter removal 4-8 days post-operation.
No Antibiotics Group
NO INTERVENTIONPatients randomized to this arm will receive regular clinical care without prophylactic antibiotics, including catheter placement/removal.
