Detectability of the Bladder With an Early Prototype of the Bladder Sensor

This is an explorative, monocentric, feasibility study to evaluate the detectability of the bladder in healthy subjects by ultrasound monitoring with the early prototype of a future bladder sensor, which is intended for use for an individual suffering from urinary incontinence.

The purpose of this clinical investigation with healthy subjects (defined as subjects without urological problems or lower urinary tract symptoms, assured by pre-defined inclusion and exclusion criteria) is to collect raw measurement data of the urinary bladder region of volunteers with the TENA-PROTO1, in multiple postural positions to evaluate the detectability of the bladder in the intended users and to determine the position criteria for the (future) ultrasound sensor on the lower abdomen. Secondarily, this clinical investigation aims to collect data on the adhesive and supportive belt used to fix the transducer assembly to the lower abdomen by the subject. Furthermore, safety of the subjects will be continously documented such as adverse events (AE) and device deficiencies (DD); AEs, Adverse Device Events (ADE), Severe Adverse Events (SAE), Severe Adverse Device effects (SADE), Unanticipated Serious Adverse Device Effects (USADE) and DDs.
