Study Summary

The investigators will determine the efficacy of an innovative short regimen of methenamine hippurate on prevention of post-operative UTI in patients requiring short-term catheterization after pelvic reconstructive surgery through a single-blind, randomized controlled trial. Primary outcome will be the rate of symptomatic UTI within 3 weeks of catheter removal. The investigators will study cost-effectiveness, antibiotic resistance profiles, and adverse drug effects. Findings may reduce antibiotic use and nosocomial UTIs.

Primary Outcome

This is defined as any symptomatic UTI requiring treatment with antibiotics as determined by the development of 2 or more of the following symptoms, in the absence of vaginal symptoms: urinary frequency; urinary urgency; dysuria; fever over 38oC/100.4oF; suprapubic, flank, or back pain; and/or chills.
