First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how well two external catheter devices (PureWick for males and PureWick Flex for females) collect urine in healthy teenagers aged 12 to 21. Researchers measured the amount of urine captured and how comfortable the devices felt. The goal was to see if these catheters work well for adolescents.
