Project: Long-term urinary catheter for anti-infective application with sensor
Acronym | pURIcat (Reference Number: 11932) |
Duration | 01/04/2018 |
Project Topic | We will develop a long-term urinary catheter for anti-infective application with sensor (LUCAAS). Antimicrobial agents firmly coat, and are integrated within, polymers forming the device. LUCAAS will reduce catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) and other opportunistic urinary infections, sense infection status in the bladder, and prevent the formation of resistant bacteria. Pre-clinical proof-of-concept will come from tests undertaken at a University-hospital in Denmark. |
