A novel double lumen suprapubic urodynamic catheter was developed to bypass urethral catheterization complications. This device offers reliable continuous pressure monitoring, improving patient outcomes in urodynamic studies.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Medical Devices
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Urethral catheterization can cause discomfort and complications.
  • Continuous pressure monitoring is crucial for accurate urodynamic assessments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a new 7.5 FG double lumen suprapubic urodynamic catheter.
  • To provide a reliable method for continuous pressure monitoring.
  • To avoid the adverse effects associated with urethral catheterization.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an adapted central venous catheter.
  • Introduction of the device via a peel-away sheath.
  • Use of a guide wire for insertion.

Main Results:
