Clinical Trial Summary

Research question: Does offering an online self-management program lead to more efficient use of care by men with urinary complaints? Hypothesis: Many men with urinary symptoms receive medication from their GP. Advice on how to self-manage complaints is often skipped. This while self-management is effective. By offering self-management instead of visiting a GP the use of care by men with urinary complaints may decrease and treatment may become more efficient. Study design: Men are randomized to receive either care-as-usual by their GP or the online self-management program. Men will be followed for six months and the cost-effectiveness of the online self-management intervention will be compared to the care-as-usual


Clinical Trial Description

Rationale: Although self-management can be difficult to implement because it is time consuming to explain, it has proven effective for LUTS. For this reason, we developed an online intervention that can be used at home by men with LUTS, giving tailored advice to each case. Objective: To assess the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of providing an online personalized self-management program as a first-line intervention to men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) compared to care as usual (CAU). Study design: A pragmatic non-inferiority randomized controlled trial in the general population. Study population: Men with LUTS (>18 years of age) who are considering visiting a general practitioner for their complaints. Intervention: Access to an online program offering personalized selfmanagement advice compared to care as usual Main endpoints: Outcomes will be assessed at 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months. ;
