Study Summary

This trial will study a new device for measuring pressure in the bladder for people who have a neurogenic bladder and use a urinary catheter. The device is easy to use and can be done at home.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for patients with neurogenic bladder who manage their condition using clean intermittent catheterization and are seen at the University of Iowa Pediatric Urology Clinic. They should have had a recent urodynamic study and no changes in management. Those without an iOS-compatible phone cannot participate.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The trial is testing a new device called 'cystoelastometer' designed for home use to monitor bladder pressure, which could be an alternative to clinical urodynamics tests. The focus is on assessing how well patients and caregivers can use this device at home.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since the cystoelastometer is a monitoring device rather than a medication, traditional side effects like those from drugs are not expected. However, there may be discomfort or issues related to its use with urinary catheters.
