Brief Summary

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common serious bacterial infection among infants. Suprapubic aspiration and bladder catheterization are considered as the gold standard by the American Academy of Pediatrics for the diagnosis, yet it is painful and invasive. In contrast, the bladder stimulation technique has been shown to be a quick and non-invasive approach to collect urine in young infants. Actually, the investigators don't have data on bacterial contamination rates for clean-catch midstream urine collections using this technique

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Bacterial contamination rates of urine samples per bladder stimulation and urinary catheterization

    Bacterial contamination of urine sample is defined by: * the growth of two or more micro-organisms, * or the presence of a non-uropathogenic germ (lactobacilli, Staphylococcus Coagulase negative, Corynebacterium), * or a bacteriuria\> 0 colony forming unit(CFU)/ml but \<104 CFU / ml for bladder catheterization and \<105 CFU / ml for clean catch urine collected by bladder stimulation, or leukocyturia \<104 / ml

    at 48 hours after inclusion date

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Pain of bladder stimulation

    through intervention completion, an average 30 min

  • Pain of bladder catheterization

    through intervention completion, an average 30 min

  • Diagnostic performance of the dipstick urine test

    through intervention completion, an average 30 min

  • Risk factors associated with the failure of the bladder stimulation technique

    through intervention completion, an average 30 min

Study Arms (2)

Urinary catheterization

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Device: urinary catheterization

manual bladder stimulation Technique

EXPERIMENTAL
Procedure: manual bladder stimulation technique

Interventions

Urinary catheterization with pain controlled

Urinary catheterization

manual gentle tapping in the suprapubic area at a frequency of 100 taps per minute for 30 seconds followed by lumbar paravertebral massage maneuvers for 30 seconds. The renal and bladder stimulation will be performed in less than 3 minutes, with a maximum of two attempts spaced about 20 minutes
