Performance Proof of Product Developed to Detect Abnormal Vaginal pH

Common Sense

Overview

This study was designed to validate the color appearance on the NORMA-SENSE gen 3 when comes into contact with vaginal secretions having an elevated pH level

This study was designed to validate the color appearance on the NORMA-SENSE gen 3. The NORMA-SENSE gen 3 changes color when worn by the user and comes into contact with vaginal secretions having an elevated pH level, without false positives due to urine remains or incontinence. The study will also asses the physical comfort in using NORMA-SENSE gen 3 and the result reading clarity which includes the ability to visualize and interpret the NORMA-SENSE gen 3 results.
