Filter by:Women with Dual Incontinence (DI) (both Urinary Incontinence (UI) and Fecal Incontinence (FI)) often have more bothersome symptoms, quality of life impact, and sexual dysfunction than those with just UI or FI. In many situations, DI is the result of a failure of communication between the brain and the sacral nerve, which controls the bladder, bowel, and pelvic floor. The only currently available treatment with level 1 effectiveness data for the treatment of BOTH UI and FI is called Sacral Neuromodulation (SNM). Sacral Neuromodulation is a standard of care treatment that involves surgically implanting a device in to a patient's body to target communication issues between their brain and bladder/bowel. Because the exact mechanism of action of SNM remains unclear, this study aims to better understand how SNM affects the nerves of patients with DI. Patients who are already planning on undergoing SNM device implantation will be recruited to this study. Study participants will undergo Current Perception Threshold (CPT) Testing and fill out questionnaires before SNM and 3 months after their SNM treatment. CPT Testing uses mild electrical stimulation in the urethra and rectum to measure and quantify the amount of physical stimuli required for the nerves in the pelvic floor to sense a stimulus. By learning more about nerve function in patients with DI, the investigators hope to find a way to screen patients before treatment with SNM to make sure the treatment will be effective for that individual.
The aim of this postmarket study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of the Altis Single Incision Sling (SIS) to an FDA cleared transobturator and/or retropubic sling through 36 months.
The LILA study is a pilot randomized parallel-group trial of a group-based yoga therapy program versus physical conditionin control program for treatment of urinary incontinence in ambulatory middle-aged and older women. Women aged 50 years and older who meet the criteria for frequency of incontinence episodes, are not using other clinical treatments for incontinence, and meet minimum physical mobility requirements and other eligibility criteria will be recruited from the general San Francisco Bay Area.
To assess pelvic floor symptoms and quality of life in elderly women.
Constipation treatment has been found to ameliorate symptoms in some patients with nocturnal enuresis (bed wetting at night). This study aims to explore if treatment of patients without overt constipation (As defined by the ROME III criteria) will also respond to stool softening and GI behavioral therapy with reduction of their urinary tract symptoms when added to standard urotherapy.
Constipation treatment has been found to ameliorate symptoms in some patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction (including day time or combined day time/night time urinary incontinence). This study aims to explore if treatment of patients without overt constipation (As defined by the ROME III criteria) will also respond to anti-constipation treatment with reduction of their urinary tract symptoms. Assessment of severity and response of lower urinary tract dysfunction will be based on the Vancouver NULTD/DES questionnaire.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of mesenchymal stem cells in treatment of stress urinary incontinence due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency; in which the problem is weakness or damage of the sphincter muscle responsible for continence. Mesenchymal stem cells are undifferentiated cells which can undergo self-renewal & differentiation into other cell types like muscle cells; thus can be used to regenerate the damaged sphincter muscles. In this study mesenchymal stem cells will be obtained from bone marrow from the patient, processed, & then re-injected periurethrally. Effectiveness will be compared to that of the surgical treatment (tension-free vaginal tape).
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of daily sacral root magnetic stimulation for 10 sessions in patients with nocturnal enuresis.Eligible patients were randomized to receive either real or sham repetitive sacral root magnetic stimulation (rSMS; 15 Hz with a total of 1500 pulses/session) for 10 sessions. Evaluation was performed before starting treatment, immediately after the 5th and 10th treatment session, and 1 month later, using frequency of enuresis/week, visual analogue scale (VAS) and Quality of life. Cortical excitability of upper and lower limbs were done before and after the end of sessions.
Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is the first line therapy recommended by NICE for the treatment of SUI. Due to poor motivation and compliance only 15-20% of women comply with the regimen. Whole body vibration (WBV) exercise has been developed as a new modality in the field of physiotherapy. The Galileo machine is a unique device for applying whole-body vibration. The investigators are currently using this therapy as an alternative to traditional pelvic floor muscle therapy. The investigators aim to audit the investigators treatment of whole body vibration.
The purpose of the present study is to compare two different physiotherapy programs regarding their effect on stress urinary incontinence.
