| Scientific title | Prospective randomised controlled trial of the usability and complications of two devices for suprapubic catheterisation in gynaecological surgery (TOSCA) |
| Study objectives | To identify the most acceptable method of suprapubic catheterisation after colposuspension. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Not provided at time of registration |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Surgery: Gynaecological |
| Intervention | All patients undergoing surgery for stress incontinence and extensive pelvic dissection which requires urinary catheterisation will be eligible to enter. Randomisation will be performed by a telephone link to a computer programme. Catheters will be inserted in theatre under general anaesthetic or spinal, irrespective of allocation. Procedures will be carried out by clinicians who have been trained in the insertion of both types of catheter. Data will be collected by questionnaire (three forms: one for the patient, one for the nursing staff, one for the surgeon[s]). |
| Intervention type | Device |
| Phase | Not Applicable |
| Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s) | |
| Primary outcome measure(s) |
The primary endpoint will be patient acceptability. |
| Key secondary outcome measure(s) |
The secondary endpoint will be complication rates for each catheter, the ease of performance of catheterisation, including any complications reported by the surgeon, and the ease of management of patients (while on catheter) as reported by the nursing staff. |
| Completion date | 01/09/2003 |
