Studying repeat urine leaks and bladder infections after kidney transplant
Part of Infections, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how often kidney transplant patients get bladder infections after transplant, especially around routine follow-up visits. It may help the clinic find ways to lower infection risk after transplant.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Attend routine follow-up care at the NYP–Weill Cornell Medicine transplant clinic
- Have had a kidney transplant (ongoing follow-up clinic care)

This observational study follows people after surgery to remove the bladder to learn how often infections happen and what they look like. It may help doctors better prevent and manage complications after this operation.
This trial tests whether taking a probiotic supplement helps people recovering from a kidney transplant. If you are between 18 and 75 years old and had a smooth recovery in the first month after surgery, you may be able to join.
This study looks at urinary tract infections that can happen after a stent is removed. It will compare approaches around stent removal to see how to lower the chance of infection afterward.
This study is creating a registry to learn how the immune system responds to BK virus in people who have recently received a kidney transplant from a deceased donor. Researchers hope this information will help improve treatment for BK virus infections.
This early-phase study is testing a combined bladder and kidney transplant approach for people whose bladder problems damage the kidneys. The goal is to see if this treatment can improve bladder and kidney outcomes and be done safely.
This study looks at how bladder x-rays taken before a living donor kidney transplant might relate to how well the transplant works afterward. It could help doctors understand if certain bladder findings predict better or worse outcomes.
