Creation of health education tools for women with bladder pain syndrome.

Painful Bladder Syndrome | Interstitial Cystitis

Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome (ICBPS) is a long lasting condition that includes bladder pain and the need to urinate often. Women with ICBPS often have sleep issues, social isolation and depression.

Accessible health education can lower stress, improve communication and guide patient choices. It is a recommended first-line treatment strategy for ICBPS.

Our study goal is to co-create health educational tools with women who have ICBPS. The project will have three focus group discussions. We will learn about their experiences and opinions on creating effective educational materials for ICBPS. This information will be used to co-create a draft of an educational tool that is relatable, realistic and relevant.
