Clinical Trial Summary

An exploratory, pre-market, open, prospective, interventional, clinical investigation at a limited number of centers for proof of concept of a new catheter.

In this proof of concept investigation, subjects experienced in using transanal irrigation (TAI) with a balloon catheter will be using study catheters at two occasions to primarily study if the catheter will stay in place during the water instillation when performing TAI.

Each subject will be followed during approximately one week, depending on the usual time between their TAI.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	Safety: Adverse Events and Device Deficiencies	To evaluate the safety of catheter by assessment of incidence and severity of Adverse Events (AEs, SAEs, ADEs, SADEs, USADEs) and Device Deficiencies occurring during the study period.	1 week
Primary	Catheter stay in place	Does the catheter stay in place during water instillation? Yes/No	1 week
Secondary	Bowel emptying performance	Evaluation of bowel emptying performance: Subject's perception of emptying of bowel similar to regular use of TAI.; Descriptive analysis of data from questionnaires at Visit 2 and 3 collected from subject's previous experience from using balloon catheter comparing it with experience of using two different sizes of study catheters during study.; Question asked: "What is the subject's perception of emptying of bowel with the study catheter compared to their regular use with a balloon catheter?" Potential response: much worse, worse, same, better, much better	1 week
Secondary	Leakage	Evaluation of leakage during water instillation: Subject's perception of leakage similar to regular use of TAI.; Descriptive analysis of data from questionnaires at Visit 2 and 3 collected from subject's previous experience from using balloon catheter comparing it with experience of using two different sizes of study catheters during study.; Question asked: "What is the subject's perception of leakage with the study catheter compared to their regular use with a balloon catheter?" Potential response: much worse, worse, same, better, much better	1 week
