Summary

The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether providing a standing, take-home prescription for empiric Macrobid (self-start model) is superior to standard call-in/urgent care triage (triage model) among patients undergoing intradetrusor Botox®. Urinary tract infections. (UTIs) are the most common complication with intradetrusor Botox®, and patients have to call in to the triage line or present to a health care facility to be evaluated. Thus, the research team will compare Unplanned Healthcare Utilization, i.e. the frequency of triage calls, MyChart messages, Urgent Care visits, and Emergency Department visits related to urinary symptoms, between participants in the self-start intervention group and those in the triage control group. The team hypothesizes that patients in the "self-start" intervention group will demonstrate a lower frequency of healthcare utilization events when compared to those in the standard of care control.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Macrobid® Capsules 100 mg

Subjects will receive Nitrofurantoin (MACROBID) 100mg BID for 5 days (or a suitable alternative if resistant/allergic), a sterile urine cup and standing lab orders for urine culture. Suitable alternates for Nitrofurantoin (MACROBID) include: Trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole (BACTRIM) 100 mg twice a day for 5 days, Ampicillin-Sulbactam (AUGMENTIN) 500 mg twice a day for 5 days, Cephalexin (KEFLEX) 500 mg four times a day for 7 days, Ciprofloxacin (CIPRO) 500 mg twice a day for 7 days, or Cefexime (SUPRAX) 400 mg daily for 7 days. These medications prescribed as part of this study are clinically available Food and Drug Administration approved antibiotics for treating urinary tract infections.

OTHER

Standard Medical Care (SMC)

Subjects will receive standard of care post-procedure discharge instructions which instruct the following if a urinary tract infection is suspected: contact the nurse triage line, send a MyChart message to their providers office, or seek evaluation/treatment at an Urgent Care/Clinic.
