Sponsor

University of California, San Francisco

Enrollment

100 participants

Start Date

Apr 15, 2023

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The investigators propose a clinical trial and nested qualitative study to 1) quantify the effectiveness of an insertable vaginal cup to manage fistula urinary incontinence, 2) examine user and implementer acceptability, and 3) quantify fistula management cost. Two intervention models will be compared among women awaiting fistula surgery or whose surgery was unsuccessful: 1) a vaginal cup ('cup'), and 2) the cup attached via rubber tubing to a leg-secured urine collection bag ('cup+') for greater urine holding capacity.
