Brief summary
Investigation of novel non-CE marked intermittent catheters. The study was a randomized, single blinded, cross-over investigation comparing two new catheters for females with a comparator catheter.
Detailed description
The CP324 study investigated a novel non-CE marked intermittent catheter, designed in two different variants, Variant 1 and Variant 2, respectively, and was conducted in Denmark. The study was a randomized, single blinded, cross-over investigation comparing the two new variant catheters with a comparator catheter in 15 female IC users. For each participant, the study thus contained three test visits/treatment arms (Comparator, Variant 1 and Variant 2, respectively), to which the 15 participants were randomized using a randomization sequence of six (i.e., there were six different random options for the order in which the participants tested the three catheters). There were 4-14 days between the test visits.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Residual Urine at 1st Flow-stop During Nurse Catheterization | Immediately after the procedure/catheterization, up to 5 min. | The residual urine at 1st flow-stop during nurse catheterization (i.e., catheterization performed by the nurse) represents the volume of urine left in the bladder, the first time the urine stops running out of the catheter during bladder emptying/urination. This was assessed using a pressure sensor with time-logged weighing, meaning that a flow-stop was registered measuring the hydrostatic pressure at the outlet of an intermittent urinary catheter. Simultaneously, the collected urine was weighed and converted to volume, and the residual volume at first flow stop was calculated as the difference between the total urine volume collected and the volume collected at the first flow-stop. |
| Residual Urine at 1st Flow-stop During Self-catheterization | Immediately after the procedure/catheterization, up to 5 min. | The residual urine at 1st flow-stop during self-catheterization (i.e., catheterization performed by the participant) represents the volume of urine left in the bladder, the first time the urine stops running out of the catheter during bladder emptying/urination.

Recruitment details
Between December 2020 and May 2021,15 users were recruited for the study from one site (Denmark) and encompassed the safety population.
Pre-assignment details
The 15 recruited participant were randomized into the three treatment arms, using a randomization sequence of six. No participants were excluded or discontinued. Two participants had an adverse event, both were classified as mild, non-serious and 'Possibly related' (for details; see Adverse Events section). Thus, 15 participants constituted the intention to treat (ITT) population.
Participants by arm
| Arm | Count |
|---|---|
| Total ITT Population Baseline Measures Each treatment arm consisted of three test visits with 4-14 days between each crossover. On each visit, the participants underwent intermittent catheterization through the urethra, draining the bladder, and tested a different intermittent catheter: The comparator catheter (SpeediCath® Standard female), the new Variant 1 catheter, or the new Variant 2 catheter. For each visit and catheter tested, the participants underwent two catheterizations; the first catheterization was performed by a trained nurse and was followed by later same-day self-catheterization (i.e. performed by the participant). | 15 |

Secondary
Withdrawal Discomfort During Self-catheterization
Discomfort measured during catheter withdrawal (performed by participant), using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The VAS is a tool used to rate the intensity of certain sensations and feelings, e.g. discomfort/pain. It is a straight line of 10 cm (in this case horizontal) with one end meaning no discomfort/pain (0 cm) and the other end meaning the worst discomfort/pain imaginable (10 cm). The subject visualizes and marks a point on the line that matches the amount of discomfort/pain experienced. A high score reflects a worse outcome than a lower score.
Time frame: Immediately after the procedure/catheterization, up to 5 min.
Population: The intention to treat population (full analysis set) constituted all randomized subjects with a valid informed consent who was exposed to at least one product, and with valid information on at least one product with respect to the endpoints.
