Bacteriuria after out-patient cystoscopy.

B Richards, J R Bastable

    British Journal of Urology
    |November 1, 1977
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Post-cystoscopy bacteriuria risk is linked to patient sex and prior urinary infections. Chlorhexidine irrigation helps prevent infection in new cases, but not in patients with a history of urinary issues.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Medical Microbiology

    Background:

    • Post-cystoscopy bacteriuria is a common complication.
    • Risk factors include patient demographics and irrigation solutions.
    • Previous urinary tract infections (UTIs) may influence outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate factors associated with bacteriuria after cystoscopy.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of chlorhexidine irrigation in preventing bacteriuria.

    Main Methods:

    • Correlation analysis of bacteriuria presence 48-72 hours post-cystoscopy.
    • Comparison of infection rates based on sex and prior UTI history.
    • Assessment of chlorhexidine 1/5,000 versus water as irrigants.

    Main Results:

    • Higher infection rates observed in women compared to men.
    • Chlorhexidine irrigation demonstrated a protective effect against bacteriuria in patients without a history of UTI.
    • This protective effect was not observed in patients with a prior history of UTI.

    Conclusions:

    • Patient sex and history of urinary infection are significant predictors of post-cystoscopy bacteriuria.
    • Chlorhexidine irrigation is effective in preventing bacteriuria in specific patient groups.
    • Further research may be needed for patients with recurrent UTIs.
