Fader, M et al.: Absorbent products for urinary/faecal incontinence: a comparative evaluation of key product designs. I: Health Technology Assessment, 2008(12(29)).Language: Engelsk

Summary: The aim of this trial was to compare the performance and cost-effectiveness of the key absorbent product designs to provide a more solid basis for guiding selection and purchase. A further aim was to carry out the first stage in the development of a quality of life instrument for measuring the impact of absorbent product use on users lives. This study showed that there were significant and substantial differences between the designs of absorbent products and for moderate/heavy incontinence some designs are better for men/women than others. There was considerable individual variability in preferences, and costeffective management may best be achieved by allowing users to choose combinations of designs for different circumstances within a budget.
