The Peezy Device Compared With Midstream Clean Catch in an Obstetric Population: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Listen to this summary

This study aimed to compare the rates of contamination in urine cultures collected from pregnant women using the Peezy urine collection device versus the standard clean catch midstream method. The randomized controlled trial found no significant difference in contamination rates between the two methods, with contamination rates of 61.3% for the clean catch method and 52.5% for the Peezy device, even when accounting for body mass index. Thus, the Peezy device did not demonstrate a reduction in contamination rates in this obstetric population.
