Filter by:This double-blind randomized controlled trial seeks to find a better treatment for women with mixed urinary incontinence (both stress and urgency incontinence). The primary aim is to determine whether midurethral sling surgery combined with injections of onabotulinumtoxinA (Botox®) into the detrusor muscle of the bladder improves symptoms of mixed urinary incontinence better than sling surgery alone.
This study examines the effect of adding so called Kaatsu training to pelvic floor muscle training. Half the participants will perform Kaatsu training on their thigh muscles followed by pelvic floor muscle training. The other half will receive pelvic floor muscle training alone.
The study is to pilot-test an innovative, combined urinary/bowel continence workshop in two Wisconsin communities. Between 8-15 women with incontinence will be enrolled in each of the two pilot communities and will complete three 90-minute workshop sessions over a 6 week period.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether GTx-024 is safe and effective in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence in postmenopausal women.
Monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (MEN) is a common problem in children, affecting 7-10% of all 7 year olds. MEN is often leading to psychosocial problems because of its burden and stigmatism. The only available medical treatment option is the vasopressin analogum Desmopressin®. However, according to the literature, only one third of patients shows a good treatment response, defined as more than 90% of reduced bed wetting. Furthermore, treatment with Desmopressin® may lead to psychosocial problems, high costs and potentially dangerous side effects like water intoxication and hypertension. Copeptin, mirroring arginine vasopressin (AVP), has been shown to be significantly lower in patients with MEN compared to controls and lower in patients with severe bed wetting compared to patients with only slight bed wetting.
This study will assess the effectiveness of a new pelvic floor exercise device in strengthening pelvic floor muscles and treating urinary incontinence among women who are experiencing symptoms of pelvic floor weakness. The study will be conducted over 12 weeks and results will be collected through self-assessment questionnaires and clinical pelvic examination. Effectiveness outcomes will be tracked over the duration of the trial and measured against historical symptoms.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Yiqi Suoquan Tang, a Chinese Herbal decoction, is effective in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.
The primary aim of the study is to investigate whether pelvic floor muscle training or cough-suppression therapy reduces symptoms of urinary incontinence amongst women with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease grade 1-4 (mild to very severe disease).
Stress urinary incontinence related to intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) is a severe form of incontinence that may have a major impact on the quality of life. The main treatment is surgical and consists in the implantation of medical devices such as the artificial urinary sphincter, adjustable continence therapy, compressive sling, or injection of bulking agent. The investigator has developed a new therapeutic strategy for ISD that consist to implant myofibers with their attached satellite cells (the main source of muscle progenitor cells) at the vicinity of the striated urethral sphincter. The principle of this method relies on the in vivo activation of satellite cells leading to the formation of regenerated myofibers (myotubes) generating a distinct and tonic muscular activity . The proof of concept was investigated in a Phase I clinical trial: Investigator found that the periurethral implantation of myofiber strips around the urethra generated an electromyographic activity improving urethral closure pressure in women with severe urinary incontinence associated to ISD. In this previous study, the technique of myofiber implantation was invasive, as it required a surgical approach and dissection of the urethra to place the myofiber. For the clinical trial IPSMA, the investigator sought to optimize the myofiber transplantation process using a method injection of myofibers core obtained by hydro-dissection. The injection technique is performed percutaneously under fluoroscopic and endoscopic control and does not require a surgical approach of the urethra. This clinical trial is prospective, open-label, non-randomized, uncontrolled, single-center for the first stage and multicenter for the second stage, of 13 months for each patient aims to assess the efficacy and safety of IPSMA in the treatment of urinary incontinence in women with ISD.
The ability to determine the postmenopausal vaginal environment and the impact of pessary use could help to maximize pessary therapy and non-surgical treatment for such a prevalent problem.
