NCT02942641

Brief Summary

Objective: Acute urinary retention (AUR) is a common problem in hospitalized patients. Either indwelling urethral catheterization or clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) can be the choice of treatment. In chronic urinary retention, most physicians prefer CIC to chronic indwelling urethral catheter on the basis of the claim that the rate of catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) is lower. Method: The patients were randomized into indwelling urethral catheter and CIC groups. The primary outcomes of the study were catheter-associated asymptomatic bacteriuria and CAUTI. The secondary outcomes were pain, hematuria, cloudy urine, and quality of life.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI)

    the presence of symptoms or signs compatible with UTI and no other identified source of infection, along with ≥103 CFU/mL of ≥1 bacterial species in a single catheter urine specimen or in a midstream voided urine specimen from a patient whose urethral catheter has been removed within the previous 48 hours.

    up to 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Pain

    up to 12 months

  • Hematuria

    up to 12 months

  • Cloudy urine

    up to 12 months

  • Quality of life

    up to 12 months

  • Catheter-associated asymptomatic bacteriuria

    up to 12 months

Study Arms (2)

Indwelling urethral catheterization (Foley)

EXPERIMENTAL

Foley catheter as the intervention.

Procedure: Indwelling urethral catheterization (Foley)Device: Foley

Clean intermittent catheterization (CIC)

EXPERIMENTAL

CIC as the intervention .

Procedure: Clean intermittent catheterization (CIC)

Interventions

Hospitalized patients who developed first-time AUR were randomly divided into two groups depending on the type of assigned intervention: CIC and indwelling urethral catheter groups. Patients in this group received indwelling urethral catheter as the intervention.
