Brief summary
This study aims to see whether an educational video on a common urinary dysfunction leads to improved parent and child perceived adherence to treatments recommendations.
Detailed description
This study aims to explore whether the use of an educational video on voiding dysfunction, a common urinary dysfunction, leads to improve parents and child perceived adherence to behavioral treatment recommendations. Our main hypothesis explores whether there is improved perceived adherence, and whether this improved perceived adherence leads to better symptom outcomes in this condition. We do so through randomizing patients to a control and intervention group, where the latter is exposed to the educational video, while the control group experiences standard of care visits/follow-ups. Data is collected through surveys pre and post exposure to the intervention.
Interventions
The educational video is a short 3-minute video which describes the condition in detail, at the level that a parent or child could understand without a medical background.
