Collecting Real-life Data for the Updated TENA SmartCare Change Indicator.
- Conditions
- Urinary Incontinence
- Registration Number
- NCT06092099
- Lead Sponsor
- Essity Hygiene and Health AB
- Brief Summary
This study is an explorative, open, single-arm clinical investigation to collect real-life measurement data in order to assess the mathematical algorithms involved in TENA SmartCare Change Indicator.
- Detailed Description
The purpose of this exploratory clinical investigation is to evaluate safety and to collect real-life measurement data using the updated TENA SmartCare Change Indicator. The collected data will be used to assess and develop the device related algorithms. These algorithms have been tested in a laboratory setting but real-life measurement data are to be collected to the aid in further product development.

- INTERVENTIONAL
- Study Design
- SINGLE_GROUP
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Urine weight 15 days Absorbing hygiene products used by the subjects are collected in the investigation and the urine weight is determined. The urine weight is then matched with the data measured by the sensor to obtain connect sensor raw data with a specific urine content of an absorbing hygiene products
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Caregiver assessment on urine saturation 15 days At the collection of the used absorbing hygiene products the caregiver assess the urine content of the product. This is done by indicating on a 3-point scale if the product change was 1. early, 2. in time or 3. late.
Number of safety related events 15 days Reported adverse events and device deficiencies are collected during the study.
Caregiver usability for sensor 15 days Using a questionnaire at the end of the study data on the caregivers user experience with the sensor is collected using a 5-grade Likert scale were 1 is minimum and 5 maximum and 5 represents the better outcome.
Resident satisfaction with sensor 15 days Using a questionnaire at the end of the study data on the residents satisfaction with the sensor is collected using a 5-grade Likert scale were 1 is minimum and 5 maximum and 5 represents the better outcome.
