Internet–Based Study for People 

with Spinal Cord Injury 

Who Use Intermittent Urinary Catheterization

Researchers at the University of Rochester School of Nursing are conducting a study looking at the feasibility of an Internet-based intervention to improve self-management and outcomes related to intermittent catheterization in people with spinal cord injury.

Participation in this research does not require travel as it is entirely Internet and telephone-based. The study involves three phone calls with a study nurse, two online surveys, and an online discussion forum.

Eligibility:
1. Adults age 18 and over  
2. Spinal cord injury (any level)
3. Currently using an intermittent urinary catheter
4. Expect to use intermittent catheterization for at least 9 months
You also need phone and computer/Internet access during the three month study period. We will enroll 30 participants who will receive a total of $50 for study completion.
