Evaluation of the IS-01, a new device for urinary care in male patients with urinary incontinence. (IS-01)

IS-01 test

Nov. 20, 2023

Stress urinary incontinence (more than 1 pad/day) after radical prostatectomy

Of the 17 patients identified as eligible, 12 were informed about the clinical trial. 2 refused to participate, but 10 were willing to participate. Of the 10, 4 discontinued the study during the observation period. The questionaire analyzed the remaining 6 patients.

Six of the 10 patients had adverse events: spontaneous dislodgement of the device occurred in four patients, two of whom discontinued the study; one patient discontinued the study due to penile pain caused by the tightness of the device. The remaining one patient's urinary incontinence improved with the postoperative course and the study was discontinued midway through the observation period.

In the King Health Questionnaire assessment of incontinence severity, the mean incontinence severity score of the six patients significantly improved from 47.8 to 16.7 points, indicating improved quality of life in urinary incontinence. For the secondary endpoint, ICIQ-SF question 3, the mean score improved from 5.8 to 4.8 points, but this was insignificant.

Patients who were able to continue using the product showed improved quality of life, suggesting that it may be a useful device to support a comfortable life for male patients with urinary incontinence. Future product improvement is desirable, as it is difficult to use if the size of the penis is not suitable for use.
