Examining the acceptability of using sipIT digital tools to increase fluid consumption in kidney stone patients

Caitlan Surgeon

Purpose: This study examined the acceptability of sipIT, digital health tools that facilitate tracking of fluid consumption, to remind kidney stone patients to drink when a lapse in drinking is detected. Methods: Participants with a history of kidney stones tested sipIT for three months. Results: Participants (N=16) believed sipIT increased their fluid intake and would recommend the tools to other patients. Conclusions: Future studies should examine the lasting effects of sipIT on fluid consumption.
