Worldwide Yearly Screening for Hypospadias

Pilot Testing of the Worldwide Yearly Screening for Hypospadias

The purpose of this study is to recruit approximately 20 male participants who have a history of repaired hypospadias to test the feasibility and acceptability of the Care Planning Tool within the Worldwide Yearly Screening for Hypospadias (WYSH) Web Application.

Several studies show that patients who undergo hypospadias repair report significant functional and psychosexual issues in adolescence or adulthood (in more than 50% of cases). The Care Planning tool within the Worldwide Yearly Screening for Hypospadias (WYSH) Web Application, developed using expert level consensus from a Delphi Measure including stakeholders (psychologists, urologists, endocrinologists, patients/families), is designed to support the functional and psychosexual health of male youth and adults treated for hypospadias, to support their physical and mental health after repair.

This is a pilot study of the WYSH intervention to access its feasibility and acceptability.

[Potential participants can enroll at their local clinic.]
