Study Description

Brief Summary

Superiority study evaluating the efficacy of a prepackaged cleansing cloth and standardizing cleansing protocol vs. previous standard-of-care for catheter care and maintenance.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: ReadyCleanse Cloths
N/A

Detailed Description

A superiority study evaluating the efficacy of a complete cleansing system composed of 5 prepackaged, moistened cloths with a standardized cleaning method compared to the previous standard-of-care for catheter care and maintenance. The primary objective is to investigate if the implementation of prepackaged cleansing cloths with a standardized cleaning protocol for all indwelling urinary catheter (IUC) care and maintenance provides a reduction in CAUTIs. The ReadyCleanse complete cleansing system will replace the previous standard-of-care. The ReadyCleanse intervention will be compared to the previous standard-of-care retrospectively.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Other: ReadyCleanse for IUC

ReadyCleanse Cloths will be used for the standard of care for indwelling urinary catheter care and maintenance. The old standard of care will no longer be used.

Device: ReadyCleanse Cloths
ReadyCleanse cloths and the standardized cleansing procedure will be the standard-of-care for catheter care and maintenance; patients will undergo routine perineal care for a minimum of twice per day and after each incontinent episode.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. CAUTI Rates [16 months]

    Infection rate/1000 catheter days based on days of use.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. HCP Feedback [Begins 3 months after start date through completion of study, up to 16 months after study start]

    Healthcare provider feedback survey will be delivered to all staff that have utilized the ReadyCleanse cloths for indwelling urinary catheter care and maintenance. Purpose of the survey is to investigate healthcare provider preference and opinion of device.
