Filter by:The goal of this observational study is detecting the dominant component of mixed urinary incontinence via a combined version of ICIQ-SF and quality of life scale. The main question it aims to answer is: 1. Which component (urgency or stress) urinary incontinence bothers the patient more?
The goal of this: It was planned in a single-blind randomized controlled pre-test-post-test experimental research design. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of urinary incontinence management program on quality of life, coping with incontinence and loneliness in obese elderly. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the Urinary Incontinence Management Program prepared for the obese elderly affect the quality of life, coping with incontinence and loneliness levels of the elderly in the experimental and control groups? After the Urinary Incontinence Management Program prepared for the obese elderly, is there an increase in the incontinence quality of life of the obese elderly in the experimental group compared to the obese elderly in the control group? After the Urinary Incontinence Management Program prepared for the obese elderly, is there an increase in the level of coping with incontinence of the obese elderly in the experimental group compared to the obese elderly in the control group? After the Urinary Incontinence Management Program prepared for the obese elderly, is there a decrease in the loneliness levels of the obese elderly in the experimental group compared to the obese elderly in the control group? After the Urinary Incontinence Management Program prepared for the obese elderly, is there an increase in the incontinence quality of life, coping with incontinence and loneliness levels of the elderly in the experimental group after the intervention compared to the pre-intervention?
After robotic prostatectomy, besides erectile function and achievement of oncological control, staying dry is also a very important desire expressed frequently by the patients. This has led to the concept of trifecta achievement after robotic prostatectomies. Hence, continence preserving prostatectomies are the order of the day today. Patient acceptance to surgery is low if the continence cannot be assured preoperatively. Many techniques have been promulgated in the last two decades. The investigators present a novel technique of maximal urethral length preservation during surgery as an effective method of continence preservation. The investigators hypothesize that maximal preservation of urethra would lead to improved and early continence after robotic prostatectomy. The investigators also hypothesize that urethral preservation spares penile length shortening. The investigators therefore propose to prospectively evaluate penile length shortening. While penile length change after radical prostatectomy has been studied in the past, the investigators like to assess the penile morphometric assessment following the novel technique of maximal urethral length preservation radical prostatectomy.
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) can be defined through its symptoms as the involuntary loss of urine when carrying out an activity or effort that implies an increase in intra-abdominal pressure (IAP). Perineal dysfunctions are a widespread problem among the sportswomen population. Therefore, a continuous exposure to exercises that entail a high intra-abdominal pressure such as that which occurs in high-impact sports in women. As seen in other studies in which pelvic floor educational programs were taught; advice and guidance focused on perineal health education helped participants improve knowledge, symptoms, and quality of life, as well as reduce the incidence of SUI. For these reasons, it is relevant to carry out a prevention and education program in the female population who play high-impact sports, since they have a high prevalence of SUI.
Urinary incontinence is an increasing medical and socio-economical problem. 44% of the elderly (>65 years) women and 28% of the elderly men suffer from unwilling urine loss. Moreover, this percentages increase with age. Incontinence is a problem with multiple physical, psychological, and financial effects. In addition incontinence has a important impact on the family and healthcare professionals surrounding the elderly. The problem of urinary incontinence is complex and multifactorial. Moreover, diagnostic guidelines are inconsistent leading to a high amount of technical interventions to diagnose and to specify the type of incontinence. Aim of this study is to create a short form of necessary technical investigations to diagnose and evaluate urinary incontinence.
