Chlorhexidine Antiseptic Irrigation of the Bowel Segment During Radical Cystectomy and Urinary Diversion After Chlorhexidine Irrigation in Patients Undergoing Radical Cystectomy
Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
Summary
This is a single arm, interventional pilot study of using chlorhexidine irrigation intra-operatively and post-operatively among patients undergoing radical cystectomy with urinary diversion. The intervention comprises of using irrigation of ileal conduit or ileal neobladder intra-operatively and then for irrigation of either post-surgery with Irrisept ®. The sterilization of urine will be assessed at 10 days after cystectomy. Incidence of symptomatic urinary tract infections within the 30-day post-operative period will be estimated.
Description
Th research team proposes to increase the rate of sterilization of urine from patients with urinary diversion and reduce the incidence of UTI up to 30 ± 7 days post radical cystectomy and urinary diversion using 50 ± 25ml of Irrisept ® irrigation solution lavage of the bowel segment during surgery for a contact time of 2 minutes. For patients who obtain an ileal conduits irrigation using 50 ± 25ml of Irrisept ® will be performed daily for 10 days +/- 3 days and for those patients obtaining ileal neobladders irrigation using 50 ± 25ml of Irrisept ® will continue for 21 days +/- 7 days. The irri…

Interventions
- DeviceIrrisept® Antimicrobial Wound Lavage
Irrisept® Antimicrobial Wound Lavage is a single-use, manual, self-contained irrigation device comprised of a 450mL bottle of 0.05% Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG) in 99.95% Sterile Water for Irrigation, United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and an applicator (labeled Irriprobe®). The solution is aseptically filled in a Blow-Fill-Seal (BFS) bottle. The CHG acts as a preservative to inhibit microbial growth in the solution.
