Gentamicin Intravesical Efficacy for Infection of Urinary Tract

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common problem after surgery for pelvic organ prolapse and stress urinary incontinence. This prospective, randomized, single-masked (subject), two-parallel armed study aims to determine the effect of a single postoperative intravesical instillation of 80 mg of gentamicin sulfate in 50 mL of saline versus usual care on the proportion of women treated for UTI within 6 weeks following surgery for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) or stress urinary incontinence (SUI).

Treatment and study plan

Gentamicin Sulfate

Drug

Subjects in the gentamicin arm will receive an bladder instillation of 80mg of gentamicin sulfate in 50 mL of normal saline through a standard-of-care Foley catheter.

Other names: gentamicin sulfate transurethral bladder instillation with catheter clamping for 1 hour

Catheter clamping only

Other

Subjects in the control arm will have their standard-of-care transurethral catheter clamped for 1 hour post-placement to maintain subject masking to study arm.
