A Study of Two Versions of the Uresta Pessary Handle for Women With Stress Urinary Incontinence
A Uresta Bladder Support Handle Comparison Study
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a new handle design for the uresta pessary works better than the current handle design for women when they are using the pessary. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Is the new pessary equally effective for users. Do pessary users find the new handle design is more or less helpful for insertion and removal of the pessary Is the optional removal string, provided with the new handle, helpful in pessary handling.
The participants will use both the original and the new uresta pessary handle designs and complete a questionnaire to rate both handles.
The score for the two questionnaires will be compared to determine which handle is best.

Description détaillée
- Introduction This research is a usability comparison study involving the Uresta bladder support, a Class II medical device indicated for adult women experiencing stress urinary incontinence. The device is Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared and licensed for over-the-counter use. The study will compare user experience using the current Uresta handle design and a modified handle design intended to improve the removal process.
- Study Objective The purpose of this study is to obtain feedback from intended users regarding the efficacy and ease of use and removal characteristics of two versions of the Uresta bladder support handle. The study will also collect feedback on an optional removal string which will be made available to further facilitate removal for certain users.
- Background Uresta® is a reusable bladder support device designed to reduce urine leakage caused by stress urinary incontinence. When inserted into the vaginal canal, the device supports the urethra and reduces involuntary urine loss during physical activity such as coughing, laughing, or exercising.
The efficacy, safety and usability of the use of the uresta pessary for the treatment of bladder leaking has been extensively investigated and the results published1-5 Post-market surveillance has identified potential improvements related to the device. User feedback suggested possible modifications including adding a finger hole to the handle, increasing handle stiffness, and providing an optional removal string to help locate the device during removal.
