Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness and efficacy of a Registered Nurse (RN) led educational pre-clinic telephone call on compliance and outcomes in children with bowel and bladder dysfunction (BBD).
Methods: A retrospective chart review of a prospectively applied protocol in a single academic institution was performed for children aged 4-17 presenting with BBD. All children underwent a pre-clinic RN telemedicine visit where they were educated on pathophysiology of BBD, provided personalized urotherapy and bowel recommendations and instructed to complete pre-clinic questionnaires and voiding diaries.
