Does age or gender make a bladder scope more painful? new study aims to find out
NCT ID NCT07375641
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how age and sex influence pain before and after a first-time flexible cystoscopy (a thin tube inserted into the bladder). Researchers will ask 150 adults to rate their expected and actual pain using a simple 0-10 scale. The goal is to better understand who might need extra support during the procedure, helping doctors tailor their approach and reduce anxiety.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could help doctors better predict and manage pain during cystoscopy, leading to more personalized care and less anxiety for patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not testing a new treatment. Results may not apply to everyone, and pain perception is subjective, so findings might not lead to clear changes in practice.
