The transobturator tension-free vaginal tape (TOT) procedure has demonstrated high cure rates comparable to those obtained by retropubic suburethral tape, becoming the first line treatment for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in many cases. The TOT procedure is not exempt from complications such as bleeding, bladder injuries and pain in the thigh/groin. In addition it is commonly performed under general or regional anesthesia1-3. The single-incision mini-slings (SIMS) were developed to reduce the risk of complications by avoiding the blind passage of the trocars through the obturator space. In addition, the use of SIMS could enable surgeons to perform the procedure truly under local anesthesia. Different devices for SIMS procedure are available. However, the evidence about their efficacy is controversial4-7. The main limitation of these devices could be the predetermined length of the mesh and the weakness on its fixation. The design of the SIMS Ajust® allows adjusting the length of the sling to each individual woman and provides a robust fixation into the obturator membrane. Recent prospective studies on the efficacy and safety of the sling Ajust® have obtained promising results8,9. Even so, the NICE guidelines advise to use SIMS in the context of research studies10. The objective of this study is to establish if the effectiveness of the SIMS Ajust® is non-inferior to that of a standard TOT, as well as to compare the comorbidity of both procedures. Owing to the new appearance and fast evolution of these procedures, randomized comparative studies with SIMS are required in order to determine its place in the treatment of SUI.
The Solace European Confirmatory (SOLECT) Trial is designed to determine whether the Solace Bladder Control System is safe and effective for the treatment of Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) in adult females.
Evaluate 5-year objective and subjective cure rates after implant of the retropubic Align Urethral Support System.
Nocturnal enuresis affects 10% of the 7-year-old children and is essentially caused by a mismatch between nocturnal bladder capacity and the amount of urine produced during the night together with failure of the child to awaken in response to a full bladder.Urine overproduction at night or nocturnal polyuria (NP) is a major factor contributing to monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (MNE) pathophysiology in a large proportion of patients. Since NP is related to an abnormal circadian rhythm of arginine vasopressin (AVP) secretion, the synthetic AVP analogue desmopressin is widely used to treat MNE. It is recommended by the International Consultation on Incontinence (grade A,level 1). Desmopressin is available in 3 different formulations: nasal spray, tablet and the newest form melt. Baeyens et al demonstrated an increased prevalence of attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children with MNE According to recent data there is a high incidence of periodic limb movements in sleep at night in children with nocturnal enuresis. Those children have an increased cortical arousability leading to awakening. The frequent awakening most likely has an influence on concentration and other ADHD-symptoms in daily life. This study will assess the impact of desmopressin melt on prepulse inhibition, ADHD-symptoms, cognition and learning, sleep, quality of life and self esteem. New patients aged 6-16 years with monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis, nocturnal polyuria and sleep problems are tested before the start of the study medication desmopressin melt (T1) and 6 months later (T2). It is a multi-method, multi-informant study.
The primary objective of this study is the psychometric validation of two questionnaires (PISQ-R and a new questionnaire on sexuality) as compared to a non specific questionnaire on female sexual function (FSFI).
The goal of this project is to evaluate the applicability of non-invasive optical imaging for the measurement of brain function during investigation of the lower urinary tract.
This study is a prospective, single arm, non-randomized, multi-center clinical study that will be conducted in Europe. It is designed to assess efficacy and safety of the Virtue® Male Sling in post-prostatectomy urinary incontinence.
Urinary incontinence (UI) affects up to 50% of adult populations and stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is the most common form of UI, accounting for approximately 60% of patients. Women are affected by SUI much more often than men. Urine leakage in women with SUI occurs on exertion or during tasks that increase pressure on the bladder such as sneezing or coughing. SUI has been shown to be a barrier to physical activity in women, and as such can contribute to the development of diseases and disorders associated with inactivity. SUI appears to have many contributing factors such as structural damage (eg. tears in the pelvic organ supporting tissues), muscle weakness related to nerve injury or aging, or thinning of the urethral wall and/or its surrounding muscular sphincters. Currently the most common treatments for SUI are conservative therapy, which normally takes the form of exercise therapy provided by specialized nurses or physical therapists, and surgery, which is aimed at enhancing urethral support. Exercise therapy is effective, resulting in complete cure in 50% of cases, and surgery is effective for approximately 80% of patients but carries risks such as the development of urinary retention. It is currently not clear which treatment approach is better for which women. Through the proposed research, the investigators aim to determine how to predict which patients will improve or be cured with exercise therapy such that surgery can be avoided. Specifically the investigators will determine what is different between patients in whom exercise therapy succeeds and in whom exercise therapy fails. The investigators will also determine whether physiotherapist-supervised training of the pelvic floor muscles before surgery improves surgical outcomes. The proposed research will enable us to better understand the female continence system and how it responds to physiotherapeutic intervention. It will help us to develop improved assessment procedures that can streamline patient management.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of OnabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX®) for the treatment of urinary incontinence due to NDO in non-catheterizing patients with MS.
