Summary

This is the first ever comparative effectiveness study of an antibiotic-sparing novel self-management intervention to prevent complicated urinary tract infection (UTI).

Conditions

  • Spinal Cord Injuries
  • Neurogenic Bladder

Interventions

DRUG

Lactobacillus RhamnosusGG

LGG® (Culturelle Probiotic LGG®) will be used. This is the product we have used in the past and for which we have demonstrated safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy. For the LGG® instillation, participants will be instructed to mix the contents of 1 LGG® capsule into 45 cc sterile 0.9% saline. After mixing, participants will draw up the 45cc liquid LGG® mixture into a 60cc syringe and instill via the intermittent catheter after the last catheterization prior to going to bed. Participants will be asked to return any remaining capsules at the end of the study. Participants will be instructed to complete the USQNB-IC at the time of symptoms (in real time), and then continue completing the USQNB-IC at the determined frequency for the phase.

DRUG

Saline bladder wash

Participants will draw up the 45cc of normal saline into a 60cc syringe and instill via the intermittent catheter after the last catheterization prior to going to bed after trigger symptoms occur. Participants will be instructed to complete the USQNB-IC at the time of symptoms (in real time), and then continue completing the USQNB-IC at the determined frequency for the phase.
