About this trial
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of pre-procedure patient reminder systems on patient satisfaction, preparedness, and anxiety among patients undergoing urodynamics studies. The rate of successful procedure completion will be compared between a prospective intervention group and a historical control group to determine whether the intervention improves procedural success and healthcare delivery.
