About this study

Official title: Short-term Effects of Systematized Behavioral Modification Program (SBMP) for Nocturia: A Prospective Study

Few studies have reported the efficacy of repetitive education for behavioral modification as the first-line therapy for patients with nocturnal polyuria (NPU). The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of repetitive education for behavioral modification as the first-line therapy in the patients with NPU and to show whether a single education for behavioral modification is sufficient for the patients.

Read the detailed description

Even though behavioral modification therapy seems to be effective, it is not usually recommended for patients with nocturia because much patience and understanding is required for the patients to follow the therapy. Few studies have reported the efficacy of repetitive education for behavioral modification as the first-line therapy for patients with nocturia and nocturnal polyuria (NPU). Furthermore, no report demonstrated the evidence about how many times or how long the education for behavioral therapy should be performed and how long will the education effect would continue. The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of repetitive education for behavioral modification as the first-line therapy in the patients with NPU and to show whether a single education for behavioral modification is sufficient for the patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. decrease of nocturnal urine volume

    The variables of FVC were prospectively collected at the time of the first visit using frequency-volume chart (FVC) for 2 days. On their second visit two weeks later, if they had nocturnal polyuria, they received the first education for behavioral modification and to fill up FVC again. When they had no improvement of nocturnal polyuria on the third visit one month later, they finally received the second education and they were recommended to fill up the FVC.

    Measured: 1 month after education

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. improvement of symptoms and quality of life

    The variables of FVC were prospectively collected at the time of the first visit using frequency-volume chart (FVC) for 2 days. On their second visit two weeks later, if they had nocturnal polyuria, they received the first education for behavioral modification and to fill up questionnaires again. When they had no improvement of nocturnal polyuria on the third visit one month later, they finally received the second education and they were recommended to fill up the FVC and questionnaires.

    Measured: 1 month after education

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Patients Who Had the Urine Volume at Nighttime More Than One Third of Total Daily Urine Volume (NPU) and Voided More Than Two Times at Nighttime (Nocturia), run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jan 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

decrease of nocturnal urine volume (time frame: 1 month after education). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Jan 2011.
