Official Title: Incidence of Symptomatic and Asymptomatic Bacteriuria After Urodynamic Study With or Without Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Women With Urinary Incontinence
Brief Summary:
Urodynamic Study (UDS) represents a series of agreed-upon clinical tests and is used to evaluate the functional status of the lower urinary tract, providing a pathophysiological basis for urinary symptoms. Urodynamic Study involves catheterization of the lower urinary tract. The prevalence of urinary tract infection after UDS ranges from 1,5% to 30 %.
Studies of prophylactic antibiotics for UDSs have offered data of contradictory and limited predictive values. Some investigators concluded that prophylactic antibiotics were valuable and others have not.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of antibiotic prophylaxis before UDS in women, using different antibiotic regimens.
