18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. 18 years or older
  2. Absence of symptomatic UTI
  3. Absence of upper/lower tract obstructions
  4. No known allergies to the study products
  5. Willing to comply with all study procedures and available for the duration of the study

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Placebo Comparator

Arm Label

BLASTX Lubricated Catheter

McKesson Jelly Lubricated Catheter

Arm Description

Subjects for which catheterization is prescribed will be catheterized with a Foley lubricated with BLASTX. This gel lubricates with the same viscosity as McKesson Jelly and has a biofilm disruptive active ingredient.

Subjects for which catheterization is prescribed will be catheterized with a Foley lubricated with McKesson Jelly. This jelly lubricates with the same viscosity as BLASTX but has no biofilm disruptive active ingredient.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Urine microorganisms DNA analysis
Change in microorganisms in the test group compared to the control group.
Catheter microorganisms DNA analysis
Change in microorganisms in the test group compared to the control group.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Incidence of Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)
Number of instances of clinically symptomatic UTI in the test versus the control group

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a 2-week, single-site, randomized study in adults requiring short-term (≤ 14 days) catheterization. Subjects will be randomized 1:1 to either the biofilm disrupting gel (BLASTX) or SOC (McKesson Jelly) lubricated catheters. Urine and/or catheter DNA analysis will be obtained at catheter insertion, 2, 5, 7 and 14 days after catheterization.
