Evaluating Patient Reminder Systems to Improve Success and Experience of Urodynamics Procedures in Adult Women

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating the impact of patient reminder systems on satisfaction, preparedness, anxiety, and procedure success among adult women undergoing urodynamics studies. The study compares a group receiving reminders before their procedure with a historical control group to see if reminders improve procedure completion rates and healthcare delivery. This supportive care study focuses on pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence in females aged 18 and older. Participants in the intervention group will receive a scripted phone call before their scheduled urodynamics appointment. This call includes study consent and instructions to arrive with a comfortably full bladder, avoiding use of the lobby restroom prior to the procedure. The control group consists of patients identified from past medical records who underwent urodynamics without the reminder intervention. During the study, participants will be assessed for procedure completion success, anxiety levels, satisfaction, and preparedness before and after the urodynamics study, all within less than one week. The study uses telephone contact and electronic messaging for intervention delivery and tracks outcomes related to procedure success and patient experience. The total duration from enrollment to study end is under one week.
