Trial Outcomes & Findings for Male External Catheters' Comparison of Comfort and Efficacy (NCT NCT05955560)

NCT ID: NCT05955560

Last Updated: 2024-08-27

Results Overview

Capture rate following void (captured as % of urine captured by device and collected in canister, measured by weight). Prior to each void, the weight of the empty urine collection canister and the weight of a dry absorbent pad are collected. Participants void into the device while laying in a bed with the absorbent pad underneath them. After each void, the post-void weight of the urine collection canister and the post-void weight of the absorbent pad are collected. Capture rate is calculated as the weight of captured urine (post-void canister weight - pre-void canister weight) / total urine volume (captured urine (post-void canister weight - pre-void canister weight) + leaked urine (post-void pad weight - pre-void pad weight)) \* 100.

Participant Flow

Potential subjects were identified by a third party recruitment vendor. Targeted enrollment included 50 male, healthy volunteer participants in proximity to the clinical site. Participants were excluded if incontinent to urine or feces, or had any pre-existing wound, open lesion or irritation in the device application area.

All Study Participants
n=59 Participants
This single-blind, controlled, crossover study randomized participants 1:1 to a treatment sequence using two non-invasive urine collection devices (PureWick Male External Catheter or Sage PrimoFit). Participants were followed for 1 day through 2 voids. After void 1 was completed with PureWick MEC or Sage PrimoFit, participants consumed fluids and completed void 2 using the alternative device.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Approximately 2 hours after device placement

Population: All enrolled and randomized participants were included in the primary endpoint efficacy analysis

Capture rate following void (captured as % of urine captured by device and collected in canister, measured by weight). Prior to each void, the weight of the empty urine collection canister and the weight of a dry absorbent pad are collected. Participants void into the device while laying in a bed with the absorbent pad underneath them. After each void, the post-void weight of the urine collection canister and the post-void weight of the absorbent pad are collected. Capture rate is calculated as the weight of captured urine (post-void canister weight - pre-void canister weight) / total urine volume (captured urine (post-void canister weight - pre-void canister weight) + leaked urine (post-void pad weight - pre-void pad weight)) \* 100.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Approximately 2 hours after device placement

Population: As there were only 2 participants that were assessed as unable to use traditional sheath style condom catheters, the secondary analysis was performed on the ITT subpopulation of morbidly obese participants.
