Impact of drainage catheter material, size, and anti-dislodgement mechanism on percutaneous nephrostomy exchange intervals: a systematic review protocol version 1; peer review: awaiting peer review
2023
Overview
Background: Percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) is a commonly performed procedure by interventional radiology and urology to treat urinary obstruction. In this procedure, a catheter is percutaneously placed into the renal pelvis for urinary diversion or hemorrhagic cystitis. Material type, catheter size, and catheter shape (anti-dislodgement feature) ultimately contribute to the inherent traits of longevity in drainage catheter device. Reviewing the relative strengths or weaknesses of products in the existing clinical market may help clinicians critically appraise the devices they use with evidence-based findings from this review. Furthermore, a deeper understanding of the relative strengths and weaknesses of existing devices may help inform the next generation of drainage catheter devices to prolong the interval between exchanges without detriment to patient safety.
Methods: The following electronic databases will be queried: PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane from their inception to January 2023 to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and cohort studies to investigate the differences that our interventions of catheter material, size, and dislodgement mechanism will have on the exchange interval (standard of care 90 days
vs. 60 days
vs. 45 days
vs. 30 days). The primary outcomes will be the drainage catheter exchange frequency.
Ethics and dissemination: We aim to share our findings through high-impact peer reviewed journals. As drainage catheters and minimally invasive interventional radiology procedures become more popular, it is important for healthcare providers taking case of these populations to understand which variables might optimize patient care and minimize emergent exchanges. Data will be made available to readers.
