URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS

This study compares two ways to drain urine in men with blocked bladders before prostate surgery: self-catheterization (done by the patient several times a day) versus a permanent tube. The goal is to see if self-catheterization leads to fewer infections. About 106 men over 50 wi…

This early study tests whether adding vitamin C to the drug methenamine hippurate (Hiprex) helps prevent recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women. Twenty women will take either Hiprex alone or Hiprex plus vitamin C for six months each, and researchers will compare how m…

This early study tests whether a personalized mix of viruses (called phages) can safely treat urinary tract infections caused by drug-resistant bacteria. Six adults aged 18–65 will receive the phage cocktail through a catheter every 12 hours for 2–3 days. Researchers will monitor…

This study tests whether electroacupuncture can prevent recurrent lower urinary tract infections in women. Over 300 participants will receive either real or sham electroacupuncture for 6 months, tracking infection episodes and antibiotic use. The goal is to see if this needle-bas…

This study looks at whether giving women a single dose of antibiotics right before a clinic-based urethral bulking procedure (for stress incontinence) can lower their chance of getting a urinary tract infection afterward. About 150 women will be split into two groups: one gets th…

This study tests whether rinsing the kidney with an antibiotic called dioxidine right after stone-removal surgery can stop infection-related stones from returning. About 95 adults with infection-type kidney stones will get either standard surgery alone or surgery plus the rinse. …

This study looks at whether a personalized exercise program, started in the hospital and continued at home with video supervision, can help older adults recover after being hospitalized for pneumonia or a urinary tract infection. The goal is to see if this approach is safe, impro…

This study measures how much of the antibiotic gepotidacin passes into breast milk after a single 3000 mg dose. Eight healthy lactating women will provide milk and blood samples over 72 hours. The goal is to understand drug exposure for nursing infants, which could guide future u…

This early-stage study will give a single dose of the experimental antibiotic gepotidacin to 20 hospitalized children aged 2 to 12 who are already receiving standard antibiotics for a bacterial infection or as a preventive measure. Researchers will measure how the drug moves thro…

This study examines the impact of removing urine dipstick tests for diagnosing urinary tract infections (UTIs) in hospitals in the North Denmark Region. Researchers will compare data from before and after the change, looking at UTI diagnoses, antibiotic use, lab tests, and patien…
