Effect of Standardization of Urine Collection Using PEEZY Device as Compared to Clean Peezy for DAB

This study aims specifically to compare the rates of contaminants between standard clean-catch urine collection and urine collected using the PEEZY device. In particular, this study will compare the rates of contamination as stratified by BMI status (i.e., BMI < 30 and BMI ≥30). Based on previous studies through LUHS and the Wolfe lab, we anticipate a reduction in contamination from sample collected using the PEEZY device, particularly among those pregnant women with BMI ≥30. To investigate this hypothesis we have designed a prospective unblinded randomized controlled trial comparing voided urine specimens obtained for asymptomatic bacteriuria in pregnant women presenting for obstetric care with use of standard clean-catch (CC) sampling method versus specimen obtained using PEEZY collection device.

About this study

Recruitment procedures

  • All patients scheduled for "NOB" (new obstetrics) appointments at LOC will be screened for eligibility by residents and fellows
  • Residents and fellows will recruit participants at LOC and obtain informed consent.
  • There will not be any advertising for this study and no recruitment materials will be given to eligible participants.

Study procedures

  • Residents and fellows will use a REDCaps database to assign randomization, generate de-identified study labels, and provide study participants with assigned urine collection device as well as instructions on use.
  • Participants will use a private bathroom to void and collect their urine specimen using either the PEEZY device or standard clean catch method as assigned.
  • Urine specimens will be handed to LOC nursing staff who will separate into 3 aliquots - 1 for clinical lab and 2 for Wolfe lab.
  • Wolfe lab aliquots will be labeled with the subject's study ID and placed at 4°C for <4 hours before transport to Dr. Wolfe's laboratory for inventory, storage and analysis
  • Clinical lab specimen will be labeled with patient label and transported to clinical lab for standard urine culture per routine obstetric care.
