About this study

Official title: Comparative Study of Two Different Urine Catheters.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of a new developed catheter in comparison with an catheter on the market. The study is randomised.

Read the detailed description

Intermittent catheterization is the preferred method for emptying the bladder in patients with spinal cord injury and neurogenic bladder dysfunction.

Coloplast has developed a new intermittent catheter. In this investigation this new test catheter will be compared with SpeediCath by assessing discomfort and pain associated with catheterization of healthy men. The reason for choosing healthy men is that many catheter users do not have full feeling in their urethra and therefore can not assess the discomfort.

Healthy men who are ≥ 18 years and have no signs of urinary tract infection and do not have abnormalities, disease or have had operational interventions in the urinary tract will be included. They are recruited through advertisements on the website www.forsoegsperson.dk.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Discomfort Measured on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS)

    Outcome measured on a 10 cm Visual Analog Scale ranging from "no discomfort" (0cm) to "worst thinkable discomfort" (10cm).

    Measured: 10 minutes after each catheterisation at visit 1 and at visit 2 which is 5-25 days after visit 1

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Irritation During Voiding After Catheterization

    After each catheterization subjects were asked if they felt any irritation during voiding with answer option yes or no.

    Yes - they experienced irritation. No - they did not experience irritation.

    Measured: 10 minutes after each catheterization at visit 1 and at visit 2, which is 5-25 days after visit 1

  2. Ease of Use Measured on a 5 Point Scale: Insertion Effort

    After each catheterization the nurse who conducted the catheterization answered how the catheter insertion had been.

    There were 5 answer categories: very difficult - difficult - neither easy nor difficult - easy - very easy

    Measured: 10 minutes after each catheterization at visit 1 and at visit 2, which is 5-25 days after visit 1

  3. Ease of Use Measured on a 5 Point Scale: Withdrawal Effort

    After each catheterization the nurse who conducted the catheterization answered how the catheter withdrawal had been.

    There were 5 answer categories: very difficult - difficult - neither easy nor difficult - easy - very easy

    Measured: 10 minutes after each catheterization at visit 1 and at visit 2, which is 5-25 days after visit 1

  4. Visible Blood

    Visual blood observed on the catheter or in the urine in connection to catheterization.

    The nurse who conducted the catheterization could answer yes or no as follows:

    Yes = visible blood observed. No = no visible blood observed.

    Measured: 10 minutes after each catheterization at visit 1 and at visit 2, which is 5-25 days after visit 1

  5. Haematuria

    Negative or positive result on a multistix urin analysis.

    Negative haematuria: 10 erythrocytes/microliter or less. Positive haematuria: above 10 erythrocytes/microliter.

    Measured: 2 hours after catheterisation at visits 1 and 2

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intermittent catheter CP063CC and SpeediCath in people with Spinal Cord Injury, run by Coloplast A/S at 1 site in Denmark.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Oct 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Denmark. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Aug 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Discomfort Measured on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) (time frame: 10 minutes after each catheterisation at visit 1 and at visit 2 which is 5-25 days after visit 1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Oct 2011; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
