Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to test a modified mirror system for female patients to use during self-catheterization.
Detailed Description:
Many female patients have difficulties with self-catheterization. Mirrors currently used for this procedure have limited stability and visibility to easily view the urethral opening during catheterization, particularly for individuals with motor impairments. This can be especially frustrating because catheterization is performed frequently throughout the day and may need to occur at home or in public facilities.
The purpose of this study is to test the usability and efficacy of a modified self-catheterization mirror system for female patients. The modified self-catheterization mirror system makes adjustments to a standard, hospital-provided cathing mirror to help female patients with a range of motor abilities catheterize themselves in various postures and settings. Namely, the system offers (1) an alternative way to hold the mirror, by suspending it between the legs rather than attaching it to the toilet, and (2) lights that can be turned on for improved visibility during the self-catheterization process.
