App-Approved: new digital therapy could ease bladder urgency in women
NCT ID NCT06797245
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a prescription app called RiSolve can reduce overactive bladder symptoms in women better than standard educational handouts. About 596 women will use the app for 10 weeks or receive paper guides. Researchers will measure changes in symptom severity and quality of life.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- RiSolve app (a prescription digital therapeutic)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer women a convenient, drug-free way to manage overactive bladder symptoms at home.
- What could go wrong
- This is a relatively early-stage trial with no prior large-scale results. The app may not outperform simple handouts, and benefits might be modest.
