Abstract: | Purpose: - Intermittent catheterization is the recommended standard treatment for neurogenic - bladder dysfunction. However, standard intermittent catheters can be unwieldy, difficult - to use and carry discreetly. This can influence patient ability to perform catheterization - efficiently, discreetly and privately, therefore, affecting patient quality of life. - We evaluated whether the discreet design of the compact catheter would improve quality - of life in intermittent catheterization users compared with standard catheters. - - Materials and Methods: - We performed a nonblinded, randomized, multicenter, 2-way crossover study with 2 treatment - periods of 6 weeks ± 3 days. A total of 125 patients with neurogenic bladder dysfunction - were included in the study from 17 study sites, including 7 in France, 3 each in Germany, - Denmark and Sweden, and 1 in Norway. Quality of life was evaluated by the intermittent - self-catheterization questionnaire. The difference in questionnaire scores between - the compact catheter and standard hydrophilic coated catheters was analyzed using - a mixed linear normal model. - - Results: - The intermittent catheterization questionnaire score increased significantly due to - compact catheter use. We noted an estimated mean difference of 17.0 between the compact - and standard intermittent catheters (p <0.001), corresponding to a 28% increase. The - primary study results were further supported by the positive results of the secondary - objective of preference, that is 63% of patients preferred the compact catheter. - - Conclusions: - The discreet design of the compact catheter significantly improved patient quality - of life related to intermittent self-catheterization. |
