Systematic review and practice policy statements on urinary tract infection prevention in adults with spina bifida

Abstract: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a source of morbidity and healthcare costs in adults with spina bifida (ASB). UTI prevention strategies are often recommended, but the evidence of various approaches remains unclear. We performed a systematic review to inform a best practice policy statement for UTI prevention in ASB. On behalf of the Neurogenic Bladder Research Group (NBRG.org), we developed an a priori protocol and searched the published English literature for 30 outcomes questions addressing UTI prevention i… Show more

“…The use of antibiotic prophylaxis in children with NBSD performing CIC to prevent UTIs is debated with no clear evidence [13,[18][19][20][21]. In our sample, we found no differences in the UTI incidence between the ABP group and NABP group, but we observed a significative reduction in the UTI risk in patients performing a constant antibiotic prophylaxis (CABP group).…”

“…Colonization of urine is very common and diagnosis of UTI relies on both culture data and symptoms. 50 Proponents of early use of CIC would argue that proper bladder management reduces the increased risk of UTI with bladder instrumentation, but the risk. In the study from Hopps and Kropp, for example, of the 65 infants in the expectant management group, the most common reason for conversion to a high-risk and initiation of CIC was a febrile UTI (n=29, 45%).…”

“…We used four key publications selected by project staff to represent different aspects of care coordination research (clinical integration, implementation of technological advances, social network analysis of provider relationships and interpersonal relationships between providers) as seed articles for a forward search 1 2 6 7. We screened studies included in 127 systematic reviews on care coordination to obtain a broad range of care coordination approaches 3–5 8–131. The reviews addressed common chronic conditions managed in primary as well as specialty care, cancer care, palliative care, comorbidity and complexity, personnel specialising in care coordination, frameworks and strategies to promote coordination, technology supporting coordination, settings for temporary care such as emergency departments and care models applied to specific populations.…”
