Brief Summary
In this prospective, post-market, multi-site, open-label, crossover trial, women with urinary incontinence requiring the use of diapers (changes complets (French term)) at night will be 1:1 randomized to a treatment sequence using two devices (PureWick™ System and Hollister® Female Urinary Pouch External Collection Device) and followed for approximately 10 weeks through 2 treatment phases. The primary objectives are to evaluate safety (skin injury) and efficacy (capture rate). Safety will be assessed using the Draize Scale and efficacy will be measured based on daily urine capture rate.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Daily Average Urine Capture Rate (Percentage)
Capture rate following void (captured as % of urine captured by device and collected in canister, measured by weight). Prior to each nightly use, the weight of the empty urine collection canister and the weight of a dry absorbent pad are collected. Participants use the device overnight while sleeping with the absorbent pad underneath them. The next morning, the post-void weight of the urine collection canister and the post-void weight of the absorbent pad are collected. Capture rate is calculated as the weight of captured urine (post-void canister weight - pre-void canister weight) / total urine volume (captured urine (post-void canister weight - pre-void canister weight) + leaked urine (post-void pad weight - pre-void pad weight)) \* 100. The primary efficacy endpoint of urine capture rate is derived by computing the mean of daily capture rate during each study phase.
Daily for 28 days during each treatment phase
Daily Average Skin Irritation Score Using the Draize Scale
Draize Scale is a 5 point scale where 0 is no erythema, edema, or bleeding and 4 is severe erythema, edema, and/or bleeding. The primary safety endpoint of skin irritation score is derived by computing the mean of Draize Scale scores assessed daily during each study phase.
Daily for 28 days during each treatment phase
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Nocturia Quality of Life (N-QOL) Score
Starting at baseline and then every 2 weeks during each treatment phase
PROMIS Sleep Disturbance - Short Form 4a Score
Starting at baseline and then every 7 days during each treatment phase
Participant's Tolerability of Device/Treatment
After completion of the 28-day treatment phase or at the time of treatment discontinuation, whichever comes first.
Participant's Comfort Level Associated With Device/Treatment
After completion of each 28-day treatment phase or at the time of treatment discontinuation, whichever comes first.
Participant's Opinion of Ease of Device Use
After completion of each 28-day treatment phase or at the time of treatment discontinuation, whichever comes first.
Study Arms (2)
Treatment Sequence 1
OTHERThe PureWick™ System is used for the first 4 weeks, followed by cross-over to the Hollister Female Urinary Pouch.
Treatment Sequence 2
OTHERThe Hollister Female Urinary Pouch is used for the first 4 weeks, followed by cross-over to the PureWick™ System.
Interventions
The PureWick™ FEC is intended for non-invasive urine output management in female patients. The PureWick™ FEC is a flexible, contoured external catheter that is positioned against the area where urine exits the female body. The PureWick™ FEC is connected to the PureWick™ Urine Collection System (PUCS) via connector tubing. The PUCS uses suction (not felt by the user) to pull voided urine through the device, regardless of the urine flow rate. Urine continues through vinyl tubing until it reaches a collection canister, away from the body.
The Hollister Female Urinary Pouch External Collection Device is intended to collect and contain urine for individuals with urinary incontinence. It is designed to be emptied and should be attached to a drainage bag. The FUP is made with hydrocolloid skin adhesive and polymer/copolymer plastics.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Adult Female Participants \>18 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent.
- Currently use diapers or equivalent at night for urine capture ("Change complet"(French term))
- Willing to comply with all study procedures in the protocol
- Provision of signed and dated informed consent form
You may not qualify if:
- Has frequent episodes of bowel incontinence without a fecal management system in place; or
- Has moderate to heavy menstruation and cannot use a tampon or menstrual cup; or
- Has Urinary tract, vaginal or other chronic infections, active genital herpes; or
- Has Urinary retention; or
- Is agitated, combative, and/or uncooperative and may remove the external catheter or pouch; or
- Has any wound, open lesion or irritation on the genitalia, perineum, or sacrum; or
- Has any pre-existing neurological, psychiatric, or other condition that would confound quality of life assessment or would make it difficult to self-report on quality-of-life questionnaires in the opinion of the investigator; or
- Is known to be pregnant at time of enrollment (for women of childbearing age); or
- Any other condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude them from participating in the study.
- Is under supervision of a legally authorized representative.
