About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study Using a Digital Behavioral Intervention With a Smart Water Bottle to Improve Bladder Filling Compliance in Prostate Cancer Patients Undergoing Radiation Therapy

The purpose of this study is to determine how to incorporate a smart water bottle to improve bladder filling for prostate cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy.

Being tested
Smart Water Bottle
Medical subject headings
Prostatic Neoplasms, Radiation Injuries

What participants receive

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

  • Smart Water BottleBehavioural

    Patients will be given a smart water bottle and coached on its use. The device is a 24 oz non-bisphenol A acrylic water bottle with the ability to track water consumption from the bottle, alert its users via a smartphone-based notification system, as well as visually remind patients with a light-emitting diode in the device. Participants will be alerted to drink patient-specific volumes of room temperature water 45 minutes prior to daily standard of care radiotherapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of participants who did not continue to use the intervention through the study.

    Proportion of participants will be reported as those who did not continue to use the intervention throughout the study.

    Measured: Up to 10 weeks

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Proportion of non-compliant participants as measured by survey

    Proportion of non-compliant participants via a patient-reported survey.

    Measured: Up to 10 weeks

  2. Proportion of non-compliant participants as measured by bladder volume

    Non-compliance to study intervention will be assessed using a cone beam Computerized Tomography (CT) scan of participant's bladder volume

    Measured: Up to 10 weeks

  3. Bladder volumetric measurements

    As measured by cone beam CT scan

    Measured: Up to 10 weeks

  4. Rectum Volumetric Measurements

    As measured by cone beam CT scan

    Measured: Up to 10 weeks

  5. Patient's perception of bladder filling compliance as measured by Service User Technology Acceptability Questionnaire

    Patient reported scores based on Service User Technology Acceptability Questionnaire (SUTAQ) will measure patient's perception of the smart water bottle. SUTAQ has a total score ranging from 20-100 with the higher score indicating increased user acceptability and comfort with the device.

    Measured: Up to 10 weeks

  6. Proportion of patients refusing participation

    Proportion of screen-eligible participants who refused study participation

    Measured: Baseline
