4-aminopyridine and Urinary Tract Infections

4-aminopyridine has been researched along with Urinary Tract Infections in 1 studies

Urinary Tract Infections: Inflammatory responses of the epithelium of the URINARY TRACT to microbial invasions. They are often bacterial infections with associated BACTERIURIA and PYURIA.

Trial Outcomes

Change From Baseline in 12-item MS Walking Scale (MSWS-12) at Visit 3

"The MSWS-12 is a multi-item rating scale that asks patients to rate limitations of their mobility due to MS during the preceding two weeks on a 5-point scale (from 1= not at all to 5=extremely). The scale assesses a range of activities of daily life that rely on walking, such as climbing stairs, moving around the home and walking distances outdoors. The MSWS-12 also addresses the quality of walking, with questions on the smoothness, speed, distance, effort, and mental concentration involved in walking, as well as the need for assistive devices.~For each visit, the MSWS-12 score was calculated by summing the 12 components and transforming into a scale with a range of 0 to 100.~MSWS-12 Score = 100 * [(Sum of Items 1-12) - 12]/48" (NCT01328379)
Timeframe: Baseline Visit 1 (double-blind study day 1) and Visit 3 (end of double-blind week 4)

Change From Baseline in EQ-5D Visual Analogue Self-rating (VAS) Score at Visit 3.

The EQ-5D is a brief questionnaire that asks patients to rate general state of health. The VAS score rates the general state of health of a patient with 100 for the best imaginable health state and 0 for the worst imaginable health state. (NCT01328379)

Change From Baseline in EuroQol Group 5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) Scores at Visit 3.

"Patients completed a brief, generic health status questionnaire: The five specific dimensional scores value patients' health related to mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain and discomfort, and anxiety and depression. Each question has 3 distinguishable choices that can be analyzed using a 3-point scale (i.e. 1 = no problem, 2=some problems and 3= extreme problems).~A response of 1 indicates that the patient has no problem with the dimension tested and a response of 3 indicates that the patient has extreme problems with the dimension tested. For each visit, the average score of 5 dimensions was calculated by averaging the scores of 5 dimensions. EQ-5D final score ranges from 1-3." (NCT01328379)

Change From Baseline in Six-Minute Walk Distance at Visit 2

The Six-Minute Walk, a test of endurance, measures the distance that a patient can walk in a period of 6 minutes. Six-minute walk distance will be reported in feet. (NCT01328379)
Timeframe: Visit 1 (Baseline) and Visit 2 (start of third week double-blind treatment period )

Change From Baseline in Walking Speed Near Maximum Plasma Concentration at Steady State (CmaxSS) of Placebo and Dalfampridine-ER (5mg and 10mg), Using the Timed 25 Foot Walk (T25FW).

"The T25FW test is a quantitative measure of ambulatory function that is widely used by MS specialists to assess the global impact of the disease and its progression on the patient's physical disability.~A patient will stand with the toes of his/her shoes on the starting line (identified by a taped mark on the floor) and timing will begin when any part of the patient's foot crosses the tape. Timing will end when any part of the patient's foot crosses the finish line (identified by a taped mark on the floor). Time will be recorded in seconds and rounded to the nearest tenth of a second using a stopwatch provided for this study." (NCT01328379)
Timeframe: Baseline Visit 1 (double-blind study day 1) and approximately 3-4 hours post dose at Visit 3 (end of double-blind week 4)
