Trial Outcomes & Findings for Improving Care for Women With Urinary Incontinence (EMPOWER) (NCT NCT05515198)

NCT ID: NCT05515198

Last Updated: 2026-05-05

Results Overview

The International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form (ICIQ-UI SF) assess frequency, severity and impact on quality of life (QoL) of patients' urinary incontinence symptoms. The result of the ICIQ-UI SF is a composite score ranging from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating more severe incontinence.

Participant Flow

Participants were recruited in UH primary care offices after completing a quality improvement initiative screening via the ICIQ-SF incontinence survey. Upon completion of the survey, if the patient scored a 1 or greater, they were invited to join the EMPOWER study. Recruitment timeline was, Wave 1: 6 months of intervention, then 18 months of follow-up, Wave 2: 6 months of intervention, then 12 months of follow-up, and Wave 3: 6 months of intervention, then 6 months of follow-up.

The study design is parallel cluster randomization (i.e., each cluster was randomized to an intervention or control) implemented at different times (i.e., waves). The stepped design was initially considered but we moved away after discussions with funders and need to update the study design section of CT.gov. The medical office was randomized and every eligible patient at the medical office who was interested in participating was recruited. The medical office was assigned the intervention.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 months post start of intervention in Waves 1 and 2 (no data collected for Wave 3 participants because participation only last 6 months, not 12)

Population: 18-month follow-up data were only possible for Wave 1, and 12-month follow-up data were only available for Waves 1 and 2. As a result, some outcome data are structurally missing (i.e., not possible to observe) rather than missing due to attrition. To appropriately handle this, imputation procedures were conducted separately within each wave to respect the differing follow-up structures and avoid introducing bias.

Population: the means and standard deviations are based on the observed/non-missing responses, so n varies.

Patients' perceived confidence in their ability to communicate their health concerns around UI will be assessed by the Patient-Perceived Self-Efficacy in Patient-Physician Interactions (PEPPI) Questionnaire modified for UI. The PEPPI total score ranges from 0 to 50, with higher scores indicating greater self-efficacy.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline (immediately prior to start of intervention) and Months 2 and 6 post start of intervention in each Wave

Population: Means and standard deviations are based on the observed/non-missing responses, so n varies. The missing responses were addressed via multiple imputation when estimating the between arm contrasts

The impact of urinary incontinence on quality of life will be assessed by the Incontinence Questionnaire Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Quality of Life Module (ICIQ-LUTSqol). The ICIQ-LUTSqol total score ranges from 19 to 76, with higher scores indicating increased impact on quality of life.

Timeframe: 12 months post start of intervention in Waves 1 and 2 (no data collected for Wave 3 participants because participation only last 6 months, not 12)

Population: 18-month follow-up data were only possible for Wave 1, and 12-month follow-up data were only available for Waves 1 and 2. As a result, some outcome data are structurally missing (i.e., not possible to observe) rather than missing due to attrition. To appropriately handle this, imputation procedures were conducted separately within each wave to respect the differing follow-up structures and avoid introducing bias.

Patients' perceived improvement in UI symptoms will be assessed with the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I). PGI-I measures improvement on a scale of 1 "very much better" to 7 "very much worse." Reported outcome measure is the number of participants that scored better (1, 2, or 3) at each time point. For improvement it was calculated the number of participants who chose 1-3 only.
