Sponsored by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois · Observational
Urinary tract infections (UTI) affect the urine pH and may lead to salt precipitation such as struvite. Bacteria with urease activity are known to alkalinise urine, but not much is known on how pH is changing over time during UTI.
This study aims at following urine pH progression at the time of diagnosis of UTI and during the treatment phase.
Description of the change in urine pH over time will help understanding the risk of struvite formation and potential timing of intervention.
Adults presenting with UTI symptoms will be screened for infection and instructed to monitor urine pH during the course of treatment and 1 week after. Urine pH will be measured by the patients using calibrated pH-stix. Type of bacteria, antibiotics, and the type of diet will be monitored during the study.
6,688 studies on the registry are indexed under Infections; 807 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 50 is below the median of 240 across 2,136 observational studies indexed under Infections.
