NCT04059159

Brief Summary

The Connected Catheter is a fully internal, urethral indwelling urinary prosthesis designed for improved bladder management in males with urinary retention disorders requiring catheterization. It is a sterile, extended-use device that resides fully internally to the male lower urinary tract for an intended use life of up to 7 days per catheter.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexmale(Gender-based eligibility)
Gender Eligibility DetailsDevice is currently only designed for use by males.
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Males age ≥ 18 with clinical diagnosis of significant urinary retention
  • Must be clinically suitable and capable of safely managing bladder using an intermittent voiding or indwelling strategy
  • Must have stable urinary management history as determined by the investigator OR:
  • Must have urodynamic profile suitable for Gen 2 Connected Catheter (including bladder capacity \> 200mL without uninhibited bladder contractions)
  • Subject's lower urinary tract anatomy must fall within the ranges serviceable by the Gen 2 Connected Catheter device, as specified in the Investigational Device Instructions for Use (IFU).

You may not qualify if:

  • Active symptomatic urinary tract infection, as defined in this clinical investigation protocol (subjects may receive the device after UTI has been treated)
  • Significant risk profile or recent history of urethral stricture (e.g. stricture within past 90 days)
  • Significant risk profile or recent history of clinically significant (uncontrolled) autonomic dysreflexia
  • Significant intermittent urinary incontinence (between catheterizations)
  • Uninhibited bladder contractions and/or Vesicoureteral reflux that is not reliably controlled with medication or alternate therapy (e.g. Botox injection)
  • Pre-existing urinary pathologies and/or morphological abnormalities of the lower urinary tract or bladder (assessed during in-depth medical screening, including cystoscopy and urine analysis)
  • Urinary tract inflammation or neoplasm
  • Urinary fistula
  • Bladder diverticulum (outpouching) \> 5cm in size
  • Chronic pyelonephritis (secondary to upper urinary tract infection(s) within past 6 months)
  • Impaired kidney function or renal failure
  • Active gross hematuria
  • Active urethritis
  • Dependence on an electro-magnetic medical implant (e.g. cardiac pacemaker or implanted drug pump) or external device
  • Any unsuitable comorbidities as determined by the Investigator or complications related to use of certain medications
  • +2 more criteria
