What this trial studies
This study evaluates a novel first-void urine collection device by collecting user feedback on the instruction materials and overall usability. Participants try the device, complete a questionnaire about clarity and ease of use, and only the sample volume is measured. An initial group of 30 participants (15 men and 15 women) will attend a single visit, and if improvements are needed based on feedback, a second group of 30 participants will reassess the updated version. The primary goal is to optimize instructions and user experience while confirming proper sample collection is feasible.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the device could be easier to use and understand, potentially reducing collection errors in real-world settings.
How similar studies have gone: Prior studies in device usability have shown mixed success; this study focuses specifically on instruction clarity and user experience for a first-void collection device.
