INtravesical Antimicrobial Agents v STANDard Oral Antibiotics for the Treatment of Acute UTI in Women With rUTI (INSTANT)

June 4, 2019 updated by: Deborah J. Lightner, Mayo Clinic

INtravesical Antimicrobial Agents Versus STANDard Oral Antibiotics for the Treatment of Acute Urinary Tract Infection in Women With Recurrent Urinary Tract Infection (INSTANT Study)

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.

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.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in microbiologic effect of a chronic acute Urinary Tract Infection
Time Frame: 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
baseline, 7-10 days
Change in symptomatic relief of a chronic acute Urinary Tract Infection
Time Frame: 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)
baseline, 7-10 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To establish the clinical FTE needs for providing urgent intravesical treatments
Time Frame: 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.
baseline, through stufy completion, an average of one year
