Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Persons with Diabetes (PWDs), at minimum of (n=120) will successfully collect their urine and test with two Ascensia strip products. The products are: Ketostix and Keto-Diastix.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Testing of self collected urine
  • Device: Labeling Evaluation
  • Device: Urine Control testing
N/A

Detailed Description

Persons with Diabetes (PWDs), at minimum of (n=120) will successfully collect their urine and test with two Ascensia strip products.

  1. Demonstrate that untrained PWDs can successfully read the Instructions for Use and use Ketostix and Keto-Diastix reagent strips for Urinalysis with no training. Urine samples from the PWDs will be collected and then tested by the PWD and will be compared to the reference assay results.

  2. Demonstrate Ease of Use by PWDs with a Labeling Evaluation Survey for Ketostix and Keto-Diastix reagent strips. Participants will respond to a survey using a 5 point Likert scale with 5= Strongly Agree, 4= Agree, 3=Neutral, 2=Disagree, 3=Strongly Disagree.

  3. Demonstrate that persons with diabetes (PWDs) can successfully test urinalysis control solutions.

  • Willing to complete all study procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:
  • Physical, visual, or neurological impairments that would make the person unable to perform urine collection and testing with the urine strips as determined by the PI.

  • Currently taking medications such as levodopa.

  • Working for a medical laboratory, hospital or other clinical setting that involves training in the urinalysis lab or use of urinalysis test strips.

  • Working for a competitive medical device company (Urine Strip manufacturer) or having an immediate family member or living with someone who works for such a company.

  • A condition, which in the opinion of the investigator or designee, would put the person or study conduct at risk (reason for exclusion will be clearly documented by investigator or designee on the study form).
