Trial Outcomes & Findings for Lubricant Versus Lidocaine Gel for Pain Control During Urodynamics (NCT NCT01612156)

NCT ID: NCT01612156

Last Updated: 2015-01-19

Results Overview

Subjects will be asked to report their pain level using the Wong Baker pain scale at the beginning of the exam, after a cotton tipped swab test, after the urodynamic catheters are placed in the urethra, and then 30 minutes after the completion of the exam. The Wong Baker pain scale ranges from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain possible).

Measure
2% Lidocaine Gel
Subjects in this arm will have all urethral catheters and urethral cotton tipped swabs prepared with 2% lidocaine gel before use in the examination. 2% lidocaine gel: 2% lidocaine gel will be used to coat the urethral catheters and cotton tipped swab before use during the examination.
Water Based Lubricant
Subjects in this arm will have all urethral catheters and urethral cotton tipped swabs prepared wtih water based lubricant before use in the pelvic floor examination. Water based lubricant: Water based lubricant will be applied to all urethral catheters and cotton tipped swabs before use in the pelvic floor examination.
