Abstract

L'invention concerne des procédés, des systèmes, et des produits de programme informatique permettant d'obtenir un échantillon in vivo et/ou de traiter un sujet. Ces procédés consistent à positionner un cathéter transurétral allongé dans l'urètre prostatique d'un sujet, le cathéter présentant un ballonnet d'ancrage à la vessie, au moins un port d'entrée de bio-échantillon éloigné de manière axiale du ballonnet d'ancrage à la vessie, et un canal d'écoulement de bio-échantillon s'étendant de manière axiale, en communication fluidique avec le port d'entrée de bio-échantillon, maintenu intérieurement dans le cathéter. Le ballonnet d'ancrage est gonflé pour positionner le cathéter, de sorte que le port d'entrée de fluide se trouve à proximité de l'urètre prostatique du sujet, et que le fluide prostatique est aspiré de l'urètre prostatique jusqu'au port d'entrée de bio-échantillon, et jusqu'au canal d'écoulement de bio-échantillon. Le cathéter peut comprendre un ballonnet de traitement thermique et/ou un ballonnet de dilatation, et l'échantillon aspiré peut être obtenu simultanément, ou pendant, ou à peu près au moment de l'application du traitement. Ce cathéter peut être configuré pour permettre à l'urine de le traverser pour être drainée, lors du traitement/recueillement de l'échantillon, tout en maintenant l'urine isolée de l'échantillon de fluide prostatique recueilli.
