What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Responder rate at Day 21
Responder rate at Day 21, where responder is defined as a subject who has at least 50% reduction in mean 12-hour pad weight test through assessment period of treatment phase (the last 7 days of 14-day device usage period), when compared to the mean pad weight test during the 7-day baseline phase
Measured: 21 Days
Secondary outcomes (9)
Percent Change in mean pad weight
Percent change in mean pad weight during assessment period of treatment phase (the last 7 days of 14-day device usage period), from the mean pad weight during the 7-day baseline phase
Measured: 7 Days, 14 Days
Percent change in the frequency of SUI events per the patient diary
Percent change in the frequency of SUI events per the patient diary, defined as average number of incontinence episodes per 12 hours during assessment period of treatment phase (the last 7 days of 14-day device usage period), from the average of baseline phase
Measured: 7 Days, 14 Days
Responder rate for frequency of SUI events per the patient diary at Day 21,
Where responder is defined as a subject who has at least 50% reduction in the number of incontinence episodes per day during the last 7 days of
Measured: 21 Days
Percent change in Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7) score
7 questions about how urinary incontinence has affected a subjects life. Questions cover physical activity, travel, social relationships and emotional health. The questionnaire asks whether the subjects life has been greatly affected, moderately, slightly or not affected at all.
Measured: 21 Days
Percent change in Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) score
It gives a patient reported assessment of change after intervention. The higher the score, the greater the severity (1 being "very much improved"; 7 "very much worse").
Measured: 21 Days
Percent change in Incontinence-Quality of Life (I-QOL) Assessment Questionnaire
The I -QOL consists of 22 items, all of which use a five - point ordinal response scale in which 1 = extremely, 2 = quite a bit, 3 = moderately, 4 = a little, and 5 = not at all. The 22 items can be further grouped into 3 sub-scales: Avoidance and Limiting Behaviour (8 ite ms), Psychosocial Impacts (9 items), and Social Embarrassment (5 items). The total I -QOL and 3 sub scale scores are calculated by summing the unweighted item score and transforming them to a 100 point scale where 0 = mo st severe, and 100 = no problem .
Measured: 21 Days
Ease of use per the USE Questionnaire: Usefulness, Satisfaction, and Ease of Use
The USE questionnaire is meant to be used to assess the Subjective reactions to the usability of the Yōni.Fit ® device. The "Usefulness" section of the questionnaire consists of 19 questions regarding usability of the device scaled from 1- "strongly disagree" to 7- "strongly agree."
Measured: 21 Days
Ease of use per the USE Questionnaire: Satisfaction
The USE questionnaire is meant to be used to assess the Subjective reactions to the usability of the Yōni.Fit ® device. The "Usefulness" section of the questionnaire consists of 7 questions regarding Satisfaction with the device scaled from 1-"strongly disagree" to 7-"Strongly Agree."
Measured: 21 Days
Ease of use per the USE Questionnaire:Ease of Use
The USE questionnaire is meant to be used to assess the Subjective reactions to the usability of the Yōni.Fit ® device. The "Usefulness" section of the questionnaire consists of 11 questions regarding Ease of Use with the device scaled from 1-"strongly disagree" to 7-"Strongly Agree."
Measured: 21 Days
