Product Surveillance Registry
Cardiac Rhythm DisordersUrological Disorders17 moreThe purpose of the Registry is to provide continuing evaluation and periodic reporting of safety and effectiveness of Medtronic market-released products. The Registry data is intended to benefit and support interests of patients, hospitals, clinicians, regulatory bodies, payers, and industry by streamlining the clinical surveillance process and facilitating leading edge performance assessment via the least burdensome approach.
Modern Urodynamics System Efficacy (MUSE) Study
Urologic DiseasesUrodynamicsThe goal of this prospective observational trial is to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of the Glean Urodynamics System (GUS) for use in the clinic to collect vesical pressure data in adult males and females with lower urinary tract symptoms. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: • What is the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of GUS for use in clinical to collect vesical pressure data in adult males and females with lower urinary tract symptoms? Participants will undergo a planned conventional urodynamics exam after which the Glean Sensor will be inserted and ambulatory urodynamics will be performed with the sensor indwelling in the bladder after which the sensor will be removed.
Antibiotic Strategy and Asymptomatic Bacteriuria in the Context of Intra-vesical Botulinum Toxin...
Urinary Tract DiseaseThe study aims to demonstrate that the "thrifty antibiotic strategy" applied to MS or SCI patients with asymptomatic bacteriuria prior to BoNTA intravesical injections does not increase the rate of symptomatic post-injection UTIs compared to the current peri-operative antibiotic strategy. Patients included in the study will be randomized in two balanced-parallel groups, 4 days (+/- 2 days) before intra-vesical BoNTA injections. Group 1: Experimental group: "Sparing antibiotic strategy" No antibiotic therapy will be administered during the peri-operative period. Group 2: Control group: Recommendations - Peri-operative antibiotic strategy An antibiotic therapy will be administered during the peri-operative period. The antibiotic will be selected according to the type of bacteria isolated and the antibiotic susceptibility testing, and started two days before and pursued until two days following intra-vesical BoNTA injections. The main objective is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of "antibiotic saving strategy" compared to peri-operative antibiotic strategy (current recommendations) for occurrence of symptomatic UTI after intra-vesical BoNTA injections in the management of asymptomatic bacteriuria (AB) among multiple sclerosis (MS) and spinal cord injured (SCI) patients undergoing clean intermittent self-catheterization (CISC).
Does Antibiotic Prophylaxis at Urinary Catheter Removal Prevent Urinary Tract Infections
Urologic DiseasesUrinary Tract DiseaseAt the end of most urological procedures, the doctor inserts a urethral catheter for a period of up to 5 days. According to AUA's guidelines, prophylactic antibiotic is indicated during catheter removal. The aim of our study is to check the influence of the antibiotic treatment on urinary tract infections after catheter removal
VR to Reduce Pain and Anxiety During GU Scans
Urologic DiseasesUrogenital Disease1 moreThis study aims to test the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) in reducing pain and anxiety in children undergoing voiding cystourethrograms (VCUG) at Children's Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA). A voiding cystourethrogram is a genitourinary diagnostic scan that provides important urological information, specifically the filling and releasing of the bladder. This information can help diagnose urological issues in children. However, this procedure requires catheterization, which is understood to be a painful and anxiety-provoking procedure. This study will test the effectiveness of VR as a non-pharmaceutical intervention to relieve pain and anxiety in pediatric patients undergoing VCUGs.

Analysis of the Virtual Acute Care at Home Experience
ConditionsInfections8 moreThe purpose of this study is to examine the implementation, intervention effectiveness, and dissemination of a digital acute care delivery model for improving selected health outcomes in the Hospital at Home population.
HPI Effect in Robotic Urological Surgery on AKI
Prostate CancerRenal Cancer1 moreIt is a single-center randomized controlled trial that aims to figure out the effect of the hypotension prediction index (HPI) on the prevention of acute kidney injury (AKI) after robot-assisted urological surgery. The primary hypothesis is that HPI software guidance prevents postoperative AKI by reducing the duration and severity of intraoperative hypotension (IOH).
Infectious Complications After Cystectomy: A Prospective Observational Study
Bladder CancerInfections8 moreIn this study, we evaluate peri- and postoperative parameters of patients undergoing a cystectomy and try to find risk factors for infectious complications. In detail, we analyze their medical history, demographic data, lab values, microbiological tests as well as histological and radiological findings. Furthermore, after discharging our patients, we send them several follow-up questionnaires at regular intervals and offer them free follow-up examinations.
Quality and Outcome Measurements of Urological Patients
Urologic DiseasesProspectively, all available parameters of urologic patients treated at the study sites will be acquired and stored in multilayered databases. Upon a given samples size, neuronal networks will be trained to define clinical endpoints. Beside uro-oncological patients also patients with other urological diseases will be enrolled.
