Intermittent Urethral Catheterization
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of the study is to evaluate safety and performance of a new catheter coating,compared to the current SpeediCath coating.
Interventions
ZN-D catheter is a catheter, similar to the CE-marked SpeediCath, but with a newly developed coating.
ZN-C catheter is a catheter, similar to the CE-marked SpeediCath, but with a newly developed coating.
The Speedicath cathere is CE-marked and commercially available.

Pre-assignment details
40 subjects were included in the safety population. 4 subjects discontinued because they were unable to catheterize with given catheter. these drop-outs were distributed evenly among the catheter types: 1. subject: ZN-C 2. subjects: ZN-D 1 subjects: SC These subjects were excluded from the ITT population as no endpoints were registered for them
