Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to compare the subject's perception (separately for each randomized catheter) of practicing catheterization when using catheters with sodium chloride in wetting solution (using two different activation times) with a standard reference catheter. The hypothesis is that the subjects' perception of catheterization is the same or more positive when using the test catheters compared to the reference catheter.
