Summary

The main objective is to investigate two types of antibacterial catheters regarding their antibacterial efficacy. The study will investigate if silver added to the coating of a urinary catheter exerts antibacterial activity that will have an impact on bacteria quantity in the urine bladder among users of intermittent catheterization.

Conditions

  • Bacteriuria

Interventions

DEVICE

Silver-nitrate coated catheter ("Catheter A")

Catheter A releases silver ions into the urethra and urinary bladder upon catheterization.

DEVICE

Degradable silver particle-coated catheter ("Catheter B")

Catheter B releases both silver ions and degradable silver particles into the urethra and urinary bladder upon catheterization.
