Filter by:A study looking at the feasibility of doing a full-scale RCT that investigates the use of tranexamic acid intravesically prior to continuous bladder irrigation treatment in the emergency department for urinary retention due to clots. We want to know: - patient experience and acceptability of the intervention - study procedures (recruitment, site appropriateness, staff engagement) - safety data - identify resource use
Loin Pain Hematuria Syndrome (LPHS) is a poorly understood, painful and incapacitating condition that typically afflicts young women and was first described in 1967. Currently, the treatment for LPHS is opioid prescription and in some extreme cases, surgical denervation of the nociceptive impulses with renal auto transplantation and auto nephrectomy. Radiofrequency nerve ablation is a minimally invasive alternative to opiate therapy, auto-transplantation and nephrectomy in LPHS. In the investigators' previous exploratory pre/post single centre studies, the investigators showed promising results with regards to pain relief, mood, disability and quality of life post procedure. As these initial studies were neither blinded nor randomized, improvements in pain and quality of life scores owing to a placebo effect cannot be ruled out ; hence, to rule out any cause-effect relation between treatment and outcome, selection-bias, influences the investigators intend to conduct a double-blinded, parallel group, sham-controlled, randomized controlled trial (RCT). The present study is designed to assess the feasibility of conducting a large scale randomized control trial. Study Hypothesis: In the present study the investigators hypothesize that the recruitment, intervention, measurement and trial procedures will be feasible and acceptable, thus allowing to proceed with a full randomized control trial
Our goal is to develop a noninvasive, fast and simple assay to detect BCa on the GeneXpert system and metablomic genes.
Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a severe pain condition affecting 3-8 million people in the United States lacking treatments that work. Emotional suffering is common in IC/BPS and known to make physical symptoms worse, and studies show patient sub-groups respond differently to treatment. By creating and testing a psychosocial intervention specific to IC/BPS, we will learn if this intervention improves patient wellness, who the intervention works best for, and how the body's pain processing influences outcomes.
The primary objective is to evaluate whether one-phase nephrographic CT (experimental) is sufficient to detect urothelial cell carcinoma in patients with hematuria compared to the traditional four-phase CT (control).
To evaluate the clinical utility associated with the integration of Cxbladder into the evaluation of subjects presenting with hematuria for evaluation of urothelial carcinoma (UC) without compromising detection of UC.
The objectives of the Clinical Validation Through Analytical Study With Urine Samples to Compare the Effectiveness and Security of an Intelligent Device are: 1.To evaluate the performance of S-There Device in comparison to the golden standard used in the lab.
The study was designed as a prospective, randomized double-blind placebo controlled trial. According to power analysis in regards of previous studies in the literature with diclofenac sodium, using a total of 144 patients are needed for Power: 80% and Efficacy: 0.05. diclofenac (20 mg) and placebo drugs to be used in the study will be numbered 1 and 2 individually. Patient randomization was performed using random.org in 144 patients. On the day of cystoscopy, the patient randomized according to inclusion criteria will be given a medication package corresponding to the number given in randomization. It will not be known by the staff and cystoscopy will be performed by the physician who does not know which package is an effective drug. Parameters: 1. Visual Pain Score during cystoscopy 2. Cystoscopy comfort - a questionnaire to be filled by the doctor 1. Excellent 2. Very good 3. Good 4. Bad 5. Too bad 3. Cystoscopy: Is it efficient? Not efficient? - Will be answered by the doctor. Post-Op: 1. 1st hour Visual Analog Pain Scale inquiry, dysuria, frequency 2. 24th Hour dysuria, Frequency, A total of 144 patients, we plan to arrive at the end of 1 month.
The investigators hypothesize that incorporation of a colorimetric scale on urine collection bags to estimate degree of hematuria would allow better characterization of urine by healthcare staff thus leading to improved patient care.
The goal of this project is to improve patient experience of cystoscopy using a non-pharmacologic modification of procedure. Cystoscopy is a common outpatient procedure for urology patients and is usually performed without sedation. However, there is limited research into reduction of patient discomfort throughout this procedure. The proposed modification technique was selected based on a well-documented psychological phenomenon in which only particular moments over the course of an aversive event determine the resultant perception of the experience. It is hypothesized that implementation of the technique will decrease the recalled pain intensity of the cystoscopy.
