Detailed description

Focus groups in various settings have demonstrated the ability to alleviate psychological and physiological distress in focus group participants. The exploration of focus groups is warranted to measure the potential benefit for patients with urinary incontinence. Researchers aimed to assess the feasibility and acceptability of in-person focus groups as a potential intervention for female patients with urinary incontinence from a mixed methods approach. A mixed methods pilot study will be conducted to investigate whether in-person focus group demonstrate meaningful significance in quantitative outcomes measured by validated questionnaires and qualitative outcomes analyzed from focus group transcripts and post-session surveys. This study was an initial assessment to determine whether in-person focus groups for females with UI is strong enough to warrant further research and clinical implementation.
