Reminder calls aim to cut missed surgeries
NCT ID NCT07644819
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at whether extra phone calls and text messages can help patients who are likely to miss their urology procedures. About 68 adults at high risk of no-showing will be split into two groups: one gets standard care, the other gets extra reminders. The goal is to see if these simple steps can reduce missed appointments and improve healthcare use.
