What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study tests whether a wearable device, used at home alongside pelvic floor therapy, can help people with multiple sclerosis manage bladder problems. Twenty women with MS will use the device for three months. The main goal is to see if the approach is practical and easy to use, not yet to prove it works.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
wearable bladder device plus pelvic floor physical therapy
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a convenient, at-home way to manage bladder problems in multiple sclerosis, reducing the need for clinic visits.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early feasibility study with only 20 participants, so results may not apply widely. The device's effectiveness is not yet proven.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 20 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Mar 2023

Expected to finish

Jan 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 to 80 years

Sex

Female participants only

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * MS diagnosis * Assigned Female at birth and whose sex is currently Female * Mild/moderate bladder dysfunction (bowel/bladder functional systems scores = 0-2 or Bladder control scale \>0) * California residents * Wifi in the home and personal smartphone (using Apple operating system) * Able to walk with or without assistive device * Manual muscle test score of 2 or more. Exclusion Criteria: * Undergone treatment for bladder dysfunction symptoms within 3 months * Current urinary tract infection * Recent (\~30 days) relapse * Any cognitive, dexterity or visual impairment so severe that it precludes use of the wearables for the bladder tool or ability to use a smartphone * Pregnancy
