An Investigation With an Intra-vaginal Device for Stress Urinary Incontinence
- Conditions
- Stress Urinary Incontinence
- Interventions
- Device: TVS
- Registration Number
- NCT03186651
- Lead Sponsor
- Invent Medic Sweden AB
- Brief Summary
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, two-armed multi-center pre-market trial. Nighty-six (96) subjects will be recruited at sites in Sweden. Patients with diagnosed stress urinary incontinence (SUI), will be considered as potential study participants. After written informed consent has been acquired, a medical and surgical history, a physical examination (including pelvic examination), and a confirmation of the diagnosis of SUI will be performed, followed by a confirmation of the inclusion/exclusion criteria. The study subjects fulfilling all the eligibility criteria will thereafter be randomized 3:1 into either the TVS group or the standard of care (SoC) group.

- Arm && Interventions
Group Intervention Description Trans Vagina Support TVS Tension Free Vaginal Support (TVS):The subjects in the TVS Group used pads during week 1 (Baseline), fitted, trained and selected device size week 2 and used the selected device size during week 3 (treatment week).
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Absolute reduction in leakage as measured by pad weight in gram 3 weeks The primary endpoint will be the absolute reduction in pad weight from the run-in week (week 1) compared with the final week (week 3). The weight of the pad is defined as the mean weight over the entire week of measurement.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method General impact on quality of life parameters 3 weeks General impact on quality of life parameters using European Quality of Life - 5 dimensions (EQ-5D-5L) comparing week 1 and week 3.
Success rate in % in reducing urinary leakage measured by pad weight 3 weeks Overall success rate, defined as at least 70% reduction in pad weight measured in gram from run-in to the final week (week 3).
Reduction of urinary leakage episodes measured by subjective observations 3 weeks Reduction of SUI episodes from the run-in week compared to the final week (week 3) by entry of subjective observations in study diary.
Impact on disease specific qulity of life parameters 3 weeks Disease specific Impact of Quality of life parameters, measured by the Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7), Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI-6) comparing week 1 and week.
