What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Pad Weight Gain
Time Frame: from the 14-day baseline period to the last 7 days of 14-day device usage period
Change from baseline as measured as reduction (improvement) in pad weight gain. Positive values are indicative of efficacious outcome.
from the 14-day baseline period to the last 7 days of 14-day device usage period
Change in Stress Urinary Incontinence Episodes
Time Frame: from the 14-day baseline period to the last 7 days of 14-day device usage period
Change from baseline as measured as reduction (improvement) in stress urinary incontinence episodes. Positive values are indicative of efficacious outcome.
from the 14-day baseline period to the last 7 days of 14-day device usage period

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Quality of Life as Measured by Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7)
Time Frame: baseline and end-of-treatment
The IIQ-7 is based on 7 questions referring to areas which may have been influenced or changed by accidental urine loss and/or prolapse. These questions are assigned a value of, 0 = 'Not at all,' 1= 'Slightly,' 2 = 'Moderately,' or 3 'Greatly.' The IIQ-7 is scored by taking the average score of items and then multiplying the average by 33 1/3 to put scores on a scale from 0 to 100. A lower score is considered less impact to quality of life and a higher score reflects more impact to quality of life. In the same manner, a reduction in scores from baseline reflects improved quality of life.
baseline and end-of-treatment
Change in Pad Weight Gain
Time Frame: from the 14-day baseline period to the first 7 days of 14-day device usage period
Change from baseline as measured as reduction (improvement) in pad weight gain. Positive values are indicative of efficacious outcome.
from the 14-day baseline period to the first 7 days of 14-day device usage period
Change in Stress Urinary Incontinence Episodes
Time Frame: from the 14-day baseline period to the first 7 days of 14-day device usage period
Change from baseline as measured as reduction (improvement) in stress urinary incontinence episodes. Positive values are indicative of efficacious outcome.
from the 14-day baseline period to the first 7 days of 14-day device usage period

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Percentage of Responders for Pad Weight Gain
Time Frame: from the 14-day baseline period to the last 7 days of 14-day device usage period
from the 14-day baseline period to the last 7 days of 14-day device usage period
Percentage of Responders for SUI Episodes
Time Frame: from the 14-day baseline period to the last 7 days of 14-day device usage period
from the 14-day baseline period to the last 7 days of 14-day device usage period
