Study Where Healthy Volunteers Evaluate LoFric Catheters

February 4, 2021 updated by: Wellspect HealthCare

A Randomized, Single-blind, Cross-over, Single Centre Study in Healthy Volunteers Evaluating Subject Perception of Urinary Catheters Manufactured in a New Process With New Solvent

The purpose of this study is to evaluate healthy volunteers perception of catheterization with LoFric catheters with new solvents in the manufacturing process. The subjects will be catheterized three times during one visit day.

The hypothesis is that the subjects' perception of catheterization is the same when using the test catheters compared to the reference catheter.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: A
LoFric POBE, Nelaton 40 cm, CH 12 with new solvent. Each subject will use the reference catheter "LoFric POBE, Nelaton 40 cm, CH 12 with current solvent" before being catheterized with the test catheters.
Unsalted LoFric POBE Hydro-Kit II, Nelaton 40 cm, CH 12 with new solvent Each subject will use the reference catheter "LoFric POBE, Nelaton 40 cm, CH 12 with current solvent" before being catheterized with the test catheters.
Experimental: B
LoFric POBE, Nelaton 40 cm, CH 12 with new solvent. Each subject will use the reference catheter "LoFric POBE, Nelaton 40 cm, CH 12 with current solvent" before being catheterized with the test catheters.
