Risk Factors and Clinical Implications of Double-J Ureteral Stent Bacterial Colonization
Condition(s) studied
Study summary
This prospective cohort study will evaluate the risk factors associated with bacterial colonization of Double-J ureteral stents and examine its clinical implications. Adult patients undergoing temporary ureteral stent insertion for routine urological indications will be followed until stent removal, when urine and stent cultures will be obtained. The study will assess the association between colonization and factors such as indwelling time, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, prior urinary tract infection, prior antibiotic exposure, and stent-related symptoms.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Bacterial colonization of the Double-J ureteral stent — At the time of stent removal, assessed from 2 weeks up to 52 weeks after stent insertion.
