MeasureTime frameDescription
Discomfort Measured on a VAS Scale 0 Being no Discomfort, 10 Being Worst Imaginable Discomfort.14 daysParticipants were to test the catheter by self-catheterising a minimum of 4 catheters each day for 14 days. At the end of each study period participants were asked to indicate how they would rate the discomfort experienced during the catheterisation procedures. Discomfort was measured by the participants own rating of discomfort on a VAS scale from 0 (no discomfort) to 10 (worst imaginable discomfort)

Outcome results

Primary

Discomfort Measured on a VAS Scale 0 Being no Discomfort, 10 Being Worst Imaginable Discomfort.

Participants were to test the catheter by self-catheterising a minimum of 4 catheters each day for 14 days. At the end of each study period participants were asked to indicate how they would rate the discomfort experienced during the catheterisation procedures. Discomfort was measured by the participants own rating of discomfort on a VAS scale from 0 (no discomfort) to 10 (worst imaginable discomfort)

Time frame: 14 days

Population: Six participants discontinued the study in the first test period, i.e. before visit 2 at which the first catheter evaluation was to be given. The primary outcome was the catheter evaluation on discomfort, and these six participants did not contribute to the ITT analysis of the primary outcome.
