All
Phase N/A

Home Biofeedback Therapy Study aims to help people with bowel and bladder problems like constipation, stool leakage, and urine leakage. Biofeedback therapy uses special devices to teach you how to control your muscles better. Instead of going to a clinic, this study tests a new way to do this therapy at home using a cellphone app and a wireless device. The study compares this home method to the usual clinic visits to see if it works just as well and costs less.

  • The study involves using a wireless probe and a cellphone app for therapy at home.
  • Participants must be at least 18 years old and have specific bowel or bladder issues.
  • The study looks at how well this home method works and if it’s safe.

If you have conditions like severe heart or kidney problems, certain diseases, or are pregnant, you cannot join. This research might make therapy easier and cheaper for many people. If interested, make sure you fit the criteria and are ready to try the new home therapy method.
