NCT ID NCT07191041
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how receiving positive urine culture results impacts stress levels and bladder symptoms in women with recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs). Researchers will follow 170 women, including those with interstitial cystitis or bladder pain syndrome, using questionnaires to measure emotional distress and symptom severity. The goal is to understand these psychological effects and provide better counseling for patients.

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 lead to better counseling strategies for women with recurrent UTIs, helping to manage emotional distress and improve quality of life.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study that does not test a treatment, so it will not directly change medical care. Results may not apply to all patients, and the findings are based on questionnaires, which can be subjective.
