ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new, shorter version of a questionnaire called the Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Treatment Constraints Assessment (LUTS-TCA). This questionnaire is designed to help understand how treatment for urinary issues affects patients with neurological conditions. The goal is to make it easier for patients to give feedback about their experiences with treatment, including any difficulties or constraints they may face, such as physical or emotional challenges. By simplifying the questionnaire, the researchers hope to improve how healthcare providers understand the needs of their patients and make it easier for patients to express their concerns.

To participate in this trial, you need to be an adult (at least 18 years old) with a neurological condition that affects your bladder and have been receiving treatment for urinary issues for at least three months. You also need to speak and understand French. If you join, you'll fill out the shorter questionnaire during your appointment and then again two weeks later from home. This study is currently recruiting participants and aims to ensure that your experience with urinary treatment is better understood and addressed.
