INSTANT: INtravesical Antimicrobial Agents v STANDard Oral Antibiotics for the Treatment of Acute UTI in Women With rUTI
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Women have problems with oral antibiotics, including vagina and bowel infections. Also, bacteria causing urinary infections are becoming more resistant to oral antibiotis. Placement of antibiotic directly into the bladder does not cause these problems and are at doses that are may be able to stop bacteria from being resistant to antibiotics.

Phase 4 |
Detailed Description
Each participant once enrolled returns with an active Urinary Tract Infection (UTI), confirmed by urine void. Participants will complete an UTI questionnaire, and if consistent with a simple non-febrile UTI will be randomized to one of two arms: oral nitrofurantoin treatment for 7 days, or intravesical gentamicin instillation once a day for three days. Patients will be followed for symptom relief with a repeat voided urine in 7 to 10 days, and with a repeated questionnaire for symptom relief.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in microbiologic effect of a chronic acute Urinary Tract Infection [baseline, 7-10 days]
Microbiological culture growth of susceptible organisms obtained on day 0, compared with voided urine culture as no growth in 24-48 hours obtained at 7-10 days
- Change in symptomatic relief of a chronic acute Urinary Tract Infection [baseline, 7-10 days]
Completion of a Symptom Urinary Tract Questionnaire. Tracking the symptoms in the past 24 hours. Indicating how severe and how bothersome they were. Severe ranging from 0 (Did not have) to 3 (Severe). Bothersome ranging from 0 (Not at all) to 3 (A lot)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- To establish the clinical FTE needs for providing urgent intravesical treatments [baseline, through stufy completion, an average of one year]
Nursing needs to provide intravesical treatments of acute Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) in women with chronic recurrent UTIs. Measured in amount of participants and FTE requirement for nursing staff.
