Study of Transition in Real-life Experiences Affecting Micturition and Well-being in Adolescent Years
Sponsor: University Hospital, Ghent
Summary
With this study, we would like to interview 16-25-year-olds who have experienced urinary problems since childhood and who are still experiencing symptoms in young adulthood. The transition from childhood, through puberty, to young adulthood is a time period marked by many psychological ans physiological changes, during which it can be difficult to properly monitor certain symptoms. With this study, we aim to gather opinions and experiences of adolescents and young adults in order to improve urological care for other patients in the future.
