Hyperhidrosis
Conditions
Brief summary
To evaluate the gravimetric sweat measurements in subjects who meet the subjective criteria for a diagnosis of palmar hyperhidrosis compared to subjects without hyperhidrosis.
Detailed description
This is a Non-Interventional Study To Assess Sweating, As Measured By Gravimetry, In Subjects With Primary Hyperhidrosis And In Healthy Individuals . The objective of this study is to determine the threshold gravimetric measurement for subjects with palmar hyperhidrosis.

| Comparison of Mean Average (Standard Deviation) Total Palmar Gravimetric Sweat Production (GMSP) Between Subject Groups (Adult Patients With Hyperhidrosis Versus Healthy Adult Volunteers). | Gravimetric assessments were conducted in a temperature controlled room on two separate occasions over a five minute period (two assessments/palm), assessing both palms. | Gravimetric assessments were conducted in a temperature controlled room on two separate occasions over a five minute period (two assessments/palm), assessing both palms. An individual palm GMSP was determined by subtracting the Weight (g) of individual gauze in contact with palm after five minutes - Weight (g) of individual gauze prior to palmar contact. For this analysis, each participant could provide two results (1 Total GMSP/occasion) as: Total GMSP 1 \[g\] = Right palm GMSP 1 \[g\] + Left palm GMSP 1 \[g\] Total GMSP 2 \[g\] = Right palm GMSP 2 \[g\] + Left Palm GMSP 2 \[g\] Mean average \[g\] (standard deviation) Total GMSPs were compared between Subject Groups (adult patients with hyperhidrosis versus healthy adult volunteers). |

Outcome results
Comparison of Mean Average (Standard Deviation) Total Palmar Gravimetric Sweat Production (GMSP) Between Subject Groups (Adult Patients With Hyperhidrosis Versus Healthy Adult Volunteers).
Gravimetric assessments were conducted in a temperature controlled room on two separate occasions over a five minute period (two assessments/palm), assessing both palms. An individual palm GMSP was determined by subtracting the Weight (g) of individual gauze in contact with palm after five minutes - Weight (g) of individual gauze prior to palmar contact. For this analysis, each participant could provide two results (1 Total GMSP/occasion) as: Total GMSP 1 \[g\] = Right palm GMSP 1 \[g\] + Left palm GMSP 1 \[g\] Total GMSP 2 \[g\] = Right palm GMSP 2 \[g\] + Left Palm GMSP 2 \[g\] Mean average \[g\] (standard deviation) Total GMSPs were compared between Subject Groups (adult patients with hyperhidrosis versus healthy adult volunteers).
Time frame: Gravimetric assessments were conducted in a temperature controlled room on two separate occasions over a five minute period (two assessments/palm), assessing both palms.
Population: Full analysis set including all enrolled subjects.
