What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Frequency of Ballooning in the Morfeus and the Sensura Filter Test Period.

    Data will not be recorded at specific time points due to individual changing patterns (1-2 bags per day). Study subjects will fill out the Case Report Form (CRF) by themselves when changing bag. The subject is asked in the CRF among others the reason for changing bag (e.g. ballooning). Subjects will change bag according to their normal routine or when deemed appropriate. They are advised to change bag if it is filled with air and the air cannot be released through the filter within a specified time period.

    Time frame: Daily or at every change of bag in a period of a maximum of 28 days
