Arm Label

Smart Water Bottle Intervention Arm

Arm Description

Patients will receive a smart water bottle, then instructed on bowel and bladder preparation for daily standard of care radiotherapy treatments for up to 10 weeks.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Proportion of participants who did not continue to use the intervention through the study.
Proportion of participants will be reported as those who did not continue to use the intervention throughout the study.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Proportion of non-compliant participants as measured by survey
Proportion of non-compliant participants via a patient-reported survey.
Proportion of non-compliant participants as measured by bladder volume
Non-compliance to study intervention will be assessed using a cone beam Computerized Tomography (CT) scan of participant's bladder volume
Bladder volumetric measurements
As measured by cone beam CT scan
Rectum Volumetric Measurements
As measured by cone beam CT scan
Patient's perception of bladder filling compliance as measured by Service User Technology Acceptability Questionnaire
Patient reported scores based on Service User Technology Acceptability Questionnaire (SUTAQ) will measure patient's perception of the smart water bottle. SUTAQ has a total score ranging from 20-100 with the higher score indicating increased user acceptability and comfort with the device.
Proportion of patients refusing participation
Proportion of screen-eligible participants who refused study participation

Intervention Name(s)
Smart Water Bottle
Intervention Description
Patients will be given a smart water bottle and coached on its use. The device is a 24 oz non-bisphenol A acrylic water bottle with the ability to track water consumption from the bottle, alert its users via a smartphone-based notification system, as well as visually remind patients with a light-emitting diode in the device. Participants will be alerted to drink patient-specific volumes of room temperature water 45 minutes prior to daily standard of care radiotherapy.
