The catheter is used in patients which require longterm urinary catheterization over at least 1 month.\n\nThe endpoint is bacteriological exam and the laboratory is blinded to the therapy status. Weekly urinary cultures are drawn and a sonication culture of the catheter tip is performed to detect and characterize the biofilm. A colonization rate of \\>95% is anticipated in the control arm.
