Comparison of Urethral Reaction to Full Silicone, Hydrogen-coated and Siliconised Latex Catheters

Abstract: Indwelling urinary catheter may induce an inflammatory reaction or even stricture of the urethra. Catheter encrustation and urinary infection are other disadvantages associated with long-term catheterisation. In the present study, 77 male patients were catheterised randomly as part of their normal treatment with 1 of 3 different types of catheter: 22 siliconised latex, 28 hydrogel-coated latex and 27 full silicone catheters. The mean duration of catheterisation was 2.2 days. The urethral inflammatory reaction … Show more

“…Therefore, hydrophilic stents reduce mechanical irritation and cell adhesion at the surrounding tissue A hydrogel is defined as a wettable polymeric biomaterial able to swell in water and to retain a significant fraction interface [1]. However, in contact with urine, hydrophilic internal stents are exposed to the risk of accumulating other four sample solutions.…”

“…Twenty-two of the included studies were parallel group randomized controlled trials 13,[15][16][17][18][19][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] and one was a cluster-randomized cross-over trial 35 comparing two or three types of indwelling urinary catheters. The 22 parallel group randomized controlled trials included 5,236 hospitalized adults (mean n=208, range n=27-1,309).…”

“…Catheter induced inflammatory re sponse has been studied by Talja et al in 1990. 6 The urethral inflammatory reaction was assessed from cytological urethral swab specimens. These authors made an interest ing observation that neither the age of the patients nor the duration of catheterisation had any effect on the inflammatory re action.…”
