Reduction of Bacteriuria in Subjects Practicing Intermittent Catheterization
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Silver-nitrate coated catheter ("Catheter A") and Degradable silver particle-coated catheter ("Catheter B") for Bacteriuria. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The main objective is to investigate two types of antibacterial catheters regarding their antibacterial efficacy. The study will investigate if silver added to the coating of a urinary catheter exerts antibacterial activity that will have an impact on bacteria quantity in the urine bladder among users of intermittent catheterization.

Timeline
Interventions
Catheter A releases silver ions into the urethra and urinary bladder upon catheterization.
Catheter B releases both silver ions and degradable silver particles into the urethra and urinary bladder upon catheterization.
