Impact, Feasibility, and Acceptability of a Digital Health Intervention for Healthy Children With Pediatric Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (pLUTS)
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Digital Pediatric Bladder Health Patient Education Curriculum for Health Knowledge, Attitudes, Practice. Completed, enrolled 204 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
PLUTS remains a common childhood condition despite effective treatment options. It is important to improve delivery of UT at the clinical level, with future studies that shift pediatric bladder health into a broader community context. This change in contextual setting and scale can impact access to care and disease incidence beyond our current treatment paradigms. Therefore, the overall objective is to measure the early impact and feasibility of a digital health intervention, Bladder Basics. To complete this aim, we will measure clinical and education outcomes pre- and post- intervention and our assessment of acceptability and feasibility will consider framework-based barriers to implementation. Since there is limited existing data with which to build a future intervention, these variables have been carefully considered based on requirements for a future school-based intervention.

Interventions
Bladder Basics is designed to be a digital health intervention to improve knowledge of healthy bladder practices. It is a video-based bladder health curriculum based on 1) principles of Urotherapy 2) stakeholder need for a gold-standard resource 3) behavioral change theory 4) education design standards for inclusion as a comprehensive school health program (CSHP). The overall mission of the course is to teach children and their families about pediatric bladder health. The development of the course has followed the NIH's Clear \& Simple standards for patient education. The 7 video lesson plan spans 60 minutes total. The course is designed to support families awaiting medical care, which would provide the continued support. In addition, one lesson shares solutions to common home and school-based barriers to behavioral change. The 4 healthy bladder practices that are promoted are- 1) pee every 3 hours 2) drinking water 3) daily poop without straining 4) toilet postures.
