Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

None listed.

Who cannot join

  • People will be excluded if they cannot communicate in English,
  • Are terminally ill, or are expected to discontinue CIC within the next nine months. - Non-English speaking people will not be included because translated instruments (e.g., Spanish) are not available for all measures and doing this as a part of this small study might compromise the integrity of this first test of preliminary effectiveness.

About this study

Official title: Web-Based Self-Management Intervention for Intermittent Urinary Catheter Use

  1. Design and develop web-based self-management intervention to improve catheter-related outcomes and quality of life in people with spinal cord injury (SCI).
  2. Conduct a pilot study to assess the feasibility (i.e., acceptability and usability of the website application) and preliminary effectiveness of this new self-management intervention.
  3. Develop and test the reliability of new/modified measures (intermittent catheter self-efficacy and self-management).
Read the detailed description

Stages involve: (1) Develop an Internet-based intervention to improve self-management and outcomes related to clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) among people with SCI (2) Pretest the Internet application with five persons with SCI using CIC; and (3) Conduct a web-based six-month intervention pilot study in a group of 30 with SCI using CIC.

Outcomes are: catheter-related adverse health outcomes (e.g., UTI, urine leakage), CIC self- management, CIC self-efficacy, health related expenditures and quality of life.

Information from this study will be used to modify the Internet application for a future Phase 2 trial in a larger study.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • teaching self-management of an intermittent catheterBehavioural

    Specifically, we will teach awareness, self-monitoring and self-management strategies to CIC uses with SCI in an online format. Nurse telephone consultation for teaching self-management will be combined with peer leaders for online forums.

What is being measured

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

  1. catheter-related adverse health outcomes (e.g., UTI, urine leakage)

    catheter related adverse events will be reported by internet based survey about 3 months after enrollment

    Measured: pre-post 3 month intervention in a single group

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Intermittent catheter self-efficacy,

    Intermittent catheter confidence related to self-care capability

    Measured: pre-post 3 month intervention in a single group

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing teaching self-management of an intermittent catheter in people with Spinal Cord Injury, run by University of Rochester at 1 site in United States.

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 0 inclusion and 2 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 7 May 2015. 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 United States. 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?

catheter-related adverse health outcomes (e.g., UTI, urine leakage) (time frame: pre-post 3 month intervention in a single group). 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 7 May 2015.
