Official Title: Efficacy of Bladder Catheters Lubricated With a Biofilm Disruptive Gel, in Reducing Catheter-associated Bacteriuria (CAB) Compared to Standard of Care: A PILOT Clinical Tr

Brief Summary: This is a 2-week, single-site, randomized study in adults requiring short-term (≤ 14 days) catheterization. Subjects will be randomized 1:1 to either the biofilm disrupting gel (BLASTX) or SOC (McKesson Jelly) lubricated catheters. Urine and/or catheter DNA analysis will be obtained at catheter insertion, 2, 5, 7 and 14 days after catheterization.
