Official title
Intraoperative One-Time Catheterization in Short Gynecologic Procedures and Its Potential Effect on Symptomatic and Asymptomatic Bacteriuria
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This is a prospective randomized controlled trial to look into the reduction of catheter associated urinary tract infections in the postoperative period. It will specifically look at short gynecologic procedures such as D\&C (dilation and curettage), hysteroscopies and LEEP procedures and the need to perform intraoperative catheterization. If a patient urinates immediately before a short operation then there is no need to drain the bladder with a catheter during the procedure. The investigators hypothesize that eliminating catheterization during these short procedures may decrease postoperative urinary tract infections. The hope is that this study would provide evidence to support a change in practice.
