There are a number of medical centers across the country which are conducting research studies about incontinence. We hope you will find information about these studies helpful.

Study Aimed at Improving Treatments for Children with Soiling or Incontinence – Online or by Mail

Soiling in children is a common condition that is difficult for the child and the family. Investigators at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill (UNC) are conducting an online research study to find out what parents think are the causes of soiling in their children and what kind of therapies and strategies are used to help children with the soiling.

They are looking for parents of children 4-18 years old who regularly soil or poop in their underwear. You will be asked to complete the same online questionnaire twice, 2 weeks apart.

You will be paid $10 for participation.

No visits to UNC are required. You will be asked to complete all questionnaires online at a secure website. If you prefer UNC will send paper questionnaires to your house by mail.

The study is funded by Takeda Pharmaceuticals North America Inc.
