Lactobacillus intravesical para reducir los síntomas urinarios después de una lesión de la médula espinal
The objectives of the proposed research among this population are: 1) to define clinically meaningful change (i.e. differentiating states of health and illness) with respect to urinary symptoms, urine inflammation, cultivable bacteria, and the urine ecosystem; and 2) to determine the optimal intravesical Lactobacillus RhamnosusGG (LGG®) dose to be used to reduce urinary symptoms in a future clinical trial.

Descripción detallada
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common outpatient infection world-wide, and for people with spinal cord injury (SCI) and neurogenic bladder (NB), it is the most common infection, secondary condition, cause for emergency room visits, and infectious cause of hospitalization. Despite its prevalence, attempts to ameliorate UTI among people with SCI are stymied by long-standing diagnostic challenges which arise from evidence gaps around "gold standard" diagnostic tests (urinalysis and urine culture) that have lower sensitivity and specificity for UTI in this population. A high prevalence of chronic inflammation leading to persistence of white blood cells (WBC) in the urine confounds the utility of WBC count, pyuria, and leukocyte esterase as biomarkers for UTI; nitrites in urine indicate the presence of only specific (but not all) organisms, many of which are present to a greater extent in the urine of people with SCI; and people with SCI have a high prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria. These physiologic changes render the gold standard diagnostic tests less useful for identifying UTI in persons with SCI.
SPECIFIC AIM 1
2 urine samples (sampling at least 2 weeks apart) for urinalysis, urine culture, uNGAL, and NGS (16S rRNA and shotgun) under the same conditions. In addition to completing the USQNB-IC prior to urine collection, participants will complete the USQNB-IC 3 days after urine collection
SPECIFIC AIM 2 Intravesical LGG dose (group: high or low) will be obtained, USQNB-IC, urine collection for urinalysis, culture, NGAL and next generation sequencing as described above. And patient satisfaction questions.

Experimental: Low Dosage Group
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. Participants will receive 2 LGG capsules and will repeat this process the following day ("Low" dose). Subjects will remain in the study for up to 29 months, with participation ending after one completed intervention (2 doses) and post-intervention assessments are complete. If urinary symptoms do not occur warranting instillation during the ensuing 29 months, participants will be asked to return any remaining kits (including LGG®). Participants will be instructed to complete the USQNB-IDC weekly until study completion. |
For the LGG instillation, participants will be instructed to mix the contents of 1 LGG capsule into saline. After mixing, participants will draw up the liquid LGG mixture into a syringe and instill via the intermittent catheter after the last catheterization prior to going to bed. Participants will receive 2 LGG capsules and will repeat this process the following night ("Low" dose). Subjects will remain in the study for up to 29 months, with participation ending after one completed intervention (2 doses) and post-intervention assessments are complete. If urinary symptoms do not occur warranting instillation during the ensuing 29 months, participants will be asked to return any remaining capsules

After mixing, participants will draw up the 45cc liquid LGG mixture into a 60cc syringe and instill via the intermittent catheter. Participants will receive 4 LGG capsules and will repeat this process the following day twice for a total of four doses ("High" dose). Subjects will remain in the study for up to 29 months, with participation ending after one completed intervention (4 doses) and post-intervention assessments are complete. If urinary symptoms do not occur warranting instillation during the ensuing 29 months, participants will be asked to return any remaining kits (including LGG®).

Number of Participants With Successful Reduction of Urinary Symptoms
Periodo de tiempo: Participants (low and high group) fill out the USQNB-IC at the onset of their symptoms, and 48 hours after the last dose. Definition of "success" is 20% reduction in number of endorsed symptoms between the first and final USQNB-IC.
