Antibiotic Bladder Instillations: Dr. Sachin Malde (Part 1)

In this video, Dr. Sachin Malde discusses the following: ● A bladder instillation treatment is filling the bladder with a chemical, or a solution, through a catheter. ● Non-antibiotic instillations are typically used to treat bladder pain, they use chemicals that replenish the depleted GAG layer—or glycosaminoglycans—of the bladder. ● The majority of instillations conducted at Dr. Malde’s practice are antibiotic because his patients are typically experiencing pain caused by underlying chronic infection. ● For antibiotic instillations, gentamicin and amikacin are employed for the majority of typical UTI causing pathogens. ● Enterococcus, however, can be resistant to gentamicin. Therefore, vancomycin can be utilized. ● Though treatment frequency varies between practices, Dr. Malde typically recommends beginning with daily instillations, for a two week period. From there, they reduce the frequency in response to the patient’s symptoms. ● Once the antibiotic is instilled in the bladder, Dr. Malde recommends holding it in the bladder as long as possible and, ideally, overnight. ● Dr. Malde explains that, after a few initial treatments at his clinic, bladder instillations can be administered by the patient at home. ● Although patients can experience some discomfort due to catheterization, to minimize this a much smaller catheter is given. ● Because the antibiotic from an instillation does not absorb into the blood, the common side effects associated with antibiotics are usually avoided. ● Similarly, the risk of infection via the catheter is very low because the antibiotic itself would eradicate any potential new infection introduced by the catheter. ● Bladder instillation is not effective if the location of the infection is in the urethra, ureters, or kidneys. ● Bladder instillation is a good option for patients who experience C. diff, thrush or allergy with oral antibiotics. ● Antibiotic instillations are intended for use alone, not in tandem with oral antibiotics. ● Studies report a 70-80% success rate for bladder instillations.
