About this study

The study is to conduct a linguistic and cultural validation of the Children Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction (CBBDQs) for 5-12 years old from English to Korean. Once it has been validated into the Korean language, it will be a valuable source that will better serve patients with BBD symptoms in an outpatient setting and use in future clinical studies.

Read the detailed description

BBD, or Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction, is relatively a common disorder affecting approximately 40% of children, it has significant and detrimental effects on patients such as decreased quality of life, psychosocial distress, and recurrent vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) accompanied by Urinary Tract Infection (UTI). A study has found that a large number of BBD patients have comorbid neuropsychiatric disorders such as Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorders (ADHD) and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Furthermore, neuropsychiatric patients with concomitant dysfunctional voiding have significantly less favorable outcomes both physically and psychologically than those with BBD only.

With a wide range of life-debilitating symptoms and outcomes, a combination of bladder and bowel dysfunction is often missed or unrecognized by caregivers and clinicians. Some patients do not outgrow as they age, and symptoms continue into adulthood. Moreover, recurrent VUR and UTI due to dysfunctional voiding may lead to kidney failure and renal scarring.

In order to assist with diagnosing bladder and bowel dysfunction, valid questionnaires are needed. However, to this present day, there is no gold standard questionnaire that assesses concomitant dysfunctions. Some questionnaires ask the guardians to fill out on behalf of the patients, which can be perplexing in evaluating symptoms as patient- and parents- reported symptoms are different.

The Children Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire (CBBDQs) for 5-12 years old was originally developed by van Engeleburg-van Lonkhuyzen M. et al., and is age-specific and appropriate 18 items that both measures bladder and bowel dysfunction. It adhered COSMIN (COnsensus- Based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments), and has been proven to be easy to fill out and suitable to be completed by either patients or caregivers. Most importantly, it allows professionals to evaluate the symptoms effectively. To best of our knowledge, it has not been translated into other languages than English (from the original language, Dutch). As it is only available in English and Dutch, linguistic and cultural validations are necessary as there is no similar questionnaire in Korean.

This study followed systematic guidelines outlined by COSMIN (COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments) and similar to the linguistic validation (development) of the Korean version of the Dysfunctional Voiding Symptoms Score (DVSS) by Park et al.

The study aims to conduct a linguistic and cultural validation of the Children Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction (CBBDQs) for 5-12 years old from English to Korean. Once it has been validated into the Korean language, it will be a valuable source that will better serve patients with BBD symptoms in an outpatient setting and use in future clinical studies.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Dysfunctional Voiding and Bladder Dysfunction, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 3 sites 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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

CBBDQs Score (time frame: 1 day). 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 6 May 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
