This study investigated user perception and adherence related to a hydrophilic-coated urinary catheter (LoFric® Origo™), available for male patients who practice intermittent catheterization.
The study had a prospective observational design, including patients from 19 European hospitals.
A total of 416 patients were eligible for the study; 179 experienced catheter users and 237 de novo. Two questionnaires were filled out, one describing background data and a second, 8 weeks later, evaluating catheter features.
The response rate for the second questionnaire was 88% (365 patients). Patients evaluating the new catheter showed a general satisfaction rate of 81% and 72% kept using it. The hygienic grip of the catheter was appreciated by 85% and the foldable feature by 67%. The results show that convenience, ease of use, and hygienic factors are patient-preferred features for a urinary catheter. These factors were confirmed for the evaluated hydrophilic-coated catheter.
本研究调查了与一种亲水性涂层导尿管(LoFric® Origo™)相关的用户认知和依从性,该导尿管可供进行间歇性导尿的男性患者使用。
本研究采用前瞻性观察设计,纳入了来自19家欧洲医院的患者。
共有416名患者符合研究条件;其中179名是有导尿经验的使用者,237名是初次使用者。患者填写了两份问卷,一份描述背景数据,另一份在8周后评估导尿管的特性。
第二份问卷的回复率为88%(365名患者)。对新导尿管进行评估的患者总体满意度为81%,72%的患者继续使用该导尿管。85%的患者对导尿管的卫生握持设计表示赞赏,67%的患者对其可折叠特性表示赞赏。结果表明,便利性、易用性和卫生因素是患者对导尿管青睐的特性。这些因素在评估的亲水性涂层导尿管中得到了证实。
