About this trial

This is an interventional prevention trial for Bladder Cancer focused on measuring surgery education, radical cystectomy, cystectomy, muscle-invasive bladder cancer

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Diagnosis of recurrent Non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) or Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer (MIBC) and are candidates for radical cystectomy
  • Subjects must have an internet connection and be able and willing to use an applicable device. If patients do not have an applicable device, they must be willing to borrow an iPad from the study team (to be returned at the conclusion of the study).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • No internet access

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

LST App

Arm Description

Participants will use the LifeScience Technologies application (LST app) before surgery, and post surgery. Participants will use the app as an educational tool to learn more about their surgery. Participants will also answer questions about themselves in the app.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Compliance using LST app at home
The LST app logs user activity. The study team will track user compliance with completing forms and questions within the application.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA)
Test the PG-SGA using the LST app to see if it is feasible in practice at identifying patients at increased risk of malnutrition.
Edmonton Frail Scale (EFS)
Test the EFS using the LST app to see if it is feasible in practice at identifying frail patients.
Physician Office/Clinician and Group Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CG-CAHPS) Survey Research (HealthStream™)
Measure of how well the patient understood the various tests and procedures that were discussed with them before and after surgery.
Count of readmissions
Count of the number of readmissions to the hospital.
