The electronic voiding diary, Compu-Void (CV), significantly improved data collection and patient compliance compared to traditional written diaries. Most patients preferred the electronic method, with the order of use not impacting results.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Medical Informatics

Background:

  • Traditional written voiding diaries (WD) are standard for recording bladder symptoms.
  • Automated electronic voiding diaries offer potential for improved data collection and patient experience.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare patient preference and compliance between the electronic Compu-Void (CV) and standard written voiding diary (WD).
  • To assess the quantity and quality of data obtained from both methods.
  • To determine if the order of using each diary method influences study outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Thirty-six women with bladder symptoms and 36 age-matched controls participated.
  • Patients used both the Compu-Void (CV) and written voiding diary (WD).
  • Data on voiding events, incontinent episodes, and fluid intake were analyzed.

Main Results:

  • Compu-Void (CV) yielded significantly more entries for voiding events and incontinent episodes than the written voiding diary (WD) (P < 0.0005 and P < 0.005).
  • Over 98% of subjects and 80% of controls preferred CV over WD (P < 0.0005).
  • The order of diary use did not significantly affect the volume of information, recorded leakage events, or fluid intake patterns.

Conclusions:

  • The electronic Compu-Void (CV) enhances data volume and patient compliance for reporting bladder symptoms.
  • Patient preference strongly favors the electronic method over traditional written diaries.
  • The order of using the electronic or written diary does not impact patient impressions or study results.
