Official title
Emotional Distress in Recurrent Urinary Tract Infection
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This project proposes a rigorous investigation into the psychological impact of positive urine culture results and recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women, with a particular focus on Interstitial Cystitis and Bladder Pain Syndrome patients. Interstitial cystitis (IC) or bladder pain syndrome (BPS) is a poorly understood chronic disorder that has an immense impact on quality of life. Stress has been demonstrated to exacerbate bladder symptoms in IC/BPS patients. Because it is often difficult to differentiate IC/BPS symptoms from UTIs, laboratory tests such as urine cultures are often obtained to rule out infectious etiology. Positive lab results can disrupt emotion regulation and impact a variety of health-related coping and outcomes. Chen et al demonstrated in a cohort of 57 IC/BPS patients that the pain index was associated with anxiety mood status and a tendency to develop a sense of hopelessness and helplessness. The impact of positive laboratory results has not been investigated in recurrent UTI patients. Identifying triggers for worsening urinary symptoms is important in the overall management of bladder symptoms therefore it is important to evaluate the impact positive lab results on psychosocial stress level in this population in order provide better patient counseling. By employing validated questionnaires and comprehensive assessments, the study aims to provide evidence-based recommendations for patient counseling and management strategies tailored to address emotional distress and symptom severity. The findings will contribute to improving the overall well-being and quality of life for women affected by recurrent UTIs and associated conditions.
