Evaluating the Efficacy and Patient Experience of Catheter-Free Intravesical Instillation

Evaluating the Efficacy and Patient Experience of Catheter-Free Intravesical Instillation: a Prospective Observational Study


Sponsor

Jahn Ferenc South Pest Teaching Hospital

Enrollment

300 participants

Start Date

Oct 1, 2024

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This study aims to evaluate a catheter-free method for delivering medications directly into the bladder, known as intravesical instillation, which is commonly used to treat conditions such as interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), recurrent urinary tract infections, bladder cancer, and post-chemotherapy or post-radiation cystitis. The study investigates whether this method, which eliminates the need for catheterization, reduces discomfort and complications while maintaining treatment effectiveness. By collecting data on patient experiences and outcomes, the study seeks to determine if this approach provides a safer and more comfortable alternative to traditional catheter-based treatments.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is testing a new way to deliver medication directly into the bladder without using a catheter. Traditionally, bladder instillation requires inserting a tube (catheter) into the urethra, which can be uncomfortable. This study evaluates whether a catheter-free method is equally effective and more comfortable for patients. **You may be eligible if...** - You are between 18 and 80 years old - Your doctor has determined you need bladder medication for one of the following conditions: interstitial cystitis (painful bladder syndrome), recurrent urinary tract infections, non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, post-radiation cystitis, or post-chemotherapy cystitis - You had a negative urine culture within the last two weeks (no current infection) - You have given consent to participate **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have an active urinary tract infection or had one within the past month - You have a bleeding disorder or frequent visible blood in your urine - You retain more than 100 mL of urine after urinating - You have a mental condition that prevents reliable cooperation Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

DEVICECatheter-Free Intravesical Instillation with a special syringe adapter

The intervention involves catheter-free intravesical instillation using a specialized urological adapter. This device is attached to a syringe and inserted approximately 6-8 mm into the urethral opening, allowing the instillation solution to reach the bladder without the need for catheterization.
