Digital Bladder Health Education for Improving Children's Health Literacy
(Bladder Basics Trial)
Trial Summary
What is the purpose of this trial?
PLUTS remains a common childhood condition despite effective treatment options. It is important to improve delivery of UT at the clinical level, with future studies that shift pediatric bladder health into a broader community context. This change in contextual setting and scale can impact access to care and disease incidence beyond our current treatment paradigms. Therefore, the overall objective is to measure the early impact and feasibility of a digital health intervention, Bladder Basics. To complete this aim, we will measure clinical and education outcomes pre- and post- intervention and our assessment of acceptability and feasibility will consider framework-based barriers to implementation. Since there is limited existing data with which to build a future intervention, these variables have been carefully considered based on requirements for a future school-based intervention
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial information does not specify whether participants need to stop taking their current medications.
What data supports the effectiveness of the treatment Digital Pediatric Bladder Health Patient Education Curriculum?
Research shows that better health literacy, which can be improved through education, is linked to better compliance with treatment protocols in bladder cancer patients. This suggests that educational programs like the Digital Pediatric Bladder Health Patient Education Curriculum could help improve health outcomes by enhancing children's understanding of their condition.12345
Is the Digital Bladder Health Education program safe for children?
How is the Digital Pediatric Bladder Health Patient Education Curriculum different from other treatments for children's bladder health?
This treatment is unique because it focuses on improving children's health literacy through digital education, empowering them to understand and manage their bladder health better. Unlike traditional treatments that may focus on medication or physical interventions, this approach uses digital tools to enhance knowledge and decision-making skills.1112131415
