What participants receive

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

  • LifeScience Technologies applicationOther

    Also called LST app

    Application for mobile devices. The app enables users to review educational videos about a surgery and recovery from a surgery from home. It also enables the user to track different metrics specific to the user's health.

Study groups in NCT02942121
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
LST AppExperimentalParticipants will use the LifeScience Technologies application (LST app) before surgery, and post surgery. Participants will use the app as an educational tool to learn more about their surgery. Participants will also answer questions about themselves in the app.
Receives: Other: LifeScience Technologies application

What is being measured

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

  1. Compliance using LST app at home

    The LST app logs user activity. The study team will track user compliance with completing forms and questions within the application.

    Measured: 90 Days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA)

    Test the PG-SGA using the LST app to see if it is feasible in practice at identifying patients at increased risk of malnutrition.

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Edmonton Frail Scale (EFS)

    Test the EFS using the LST app to see if it is feasible in practice at identifying frail patients.

    Measured: Baseline

  3. Physician Office/Clinician and Group Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CG-CAHPS) Survey Research (HealthStream™)

    Measure of how well the patient understood the various tests and procedures that were discussed with them before and after surgery.

    Measured: Change from Baseline to Day 90

  4. Count of readmissions

    Count of the number of readmissions to the hospital.

    Measured: Day 90

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing LifeScience Technologies application in people with Bladder Cancer, run by University of Kansas Medical Center 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 2 inclusion and 1 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 1 Feb 2019. 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?

Compliance using LST app at home (time frame: 90 Days). 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 1 Feb 2019.
