Brief summary: Investigation of novel non-CE marked intermittent catheters. The study was a randomized, single blinded, cross-over investigation comparing two new catheters for females with a comparator catheter.

Detailed description: The CP324 study investigated a novel non-CE marked intermittent catheter, designed in two different variants, Variant 1 and Variant 2, respectively, and was conducted in Denmark. The study was a randomized, single blinded, cross-over investigation comparing the two new variant catheters with a comparator catheter in 15 female IC users.

For each participant, the study thus contained three test visits/treatment arms (Comparator, Variant 1 and Variant 2, respectively), to which the 15 participants were randomized using a randomization sequence of six (i.e., there were six different random options for the order in which the participants tested the three catheters). There were 4-14 days between the test visits.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Female
* Minimum 18 years of age and with full legal capacity
* Daily intermittent catheterization for bladder management, with at least two catheters used on average pr. day, during the last 3 months
* Ability to self-catheterize
* Written informed consent, signed letter of authority and signed secrecy agreement given

Exclusion Criteria:

* Breastfeeding
* Pregnancy (based on pregnancy test - urine)
* Participation in any other clinical study during this investigation
* Symptoms of urinary tract infection as judged by the investigator
* Any know allergies towards ingredients in the products
* Relevant medical history that would prevent the subject from participation (investigators judgement)
