View clinical trials related to Overactive Bladder Syndrome.
Filter by:Overactive bladder (OAB) is a syndrome characterized by urinary urgency, with or without urinary incontinence, nocturia, and urinary frequency. Intravesical injection of onabotulinumtoxinA is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for treatment of neurogenic and idiopathic OAB. Current standard of practice involves 100 U of onabotulinumtoxinA diluted in 10 ml saline cystoscopically injected into approximately 20 different detrusor muscle sites equally distributed along the posterior bladder wall and dome. This treatment was classically done in the operating room under general anesthesia, but now is typically performed in an office setting using local anesthesia (lidocaine) as this is more feasible and tolerable. Patients can experience discomfort and pain with each injection. Evidence has also shown that administering the same dose of onabotulinumtoxinA into fewer injection sites in the detrusor muscle (ranging from 3 to 10) results in equivalent efficacy compared to the current standard. However, it has yet to be determined if there is a significant difference in patient satisfaction and tolerability when the procedure is administered in an office setting using the same dosage with fewer injections. Our study aims to assess whether patient tolerance and satisfaction of intravesicular onabotulinumtoxinA increases with the use of 4 detrusor injections as opposed to 20 injections when performed in an office setting on women with OAB.
Purpose: A lot of etiological factors related to overactive bladder (OAB) has been investigated. However, the role of primary nocturnal enuresis (NE), which is characterized with childhood night time incontinence, in the etiology of OAB is controversial. This study aims to evaluate the effect of NE in patients diagnosed with OAB. Metod Between january-september 2021, the data of patients who applied to the urology outpatientclinic with OAB symptoms were collected. Patients with a history of chronic systemic disease, previous medical treatment for OAB and who did not accept to join the study were excluded. According to the diagnosis of childhood NE, patients were divided into two groups. Demographic data hav been recorded. Frequency of incontinence, number of day time void and nocturia were evaluated according to a 3 day voiding diary. Inaddition, max. Urinary flowr atio (Qmax), bladder Wall thickness and postvoid residual volüme rates were determined using uroflowmetry and pelvic ultrasound.
Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a collective term referring to disorders which is characterized by lower urinary tract symptoms, including bladder pain/discomfort, frequent urination without evidence of bacterial infection. The etiology of IC/BPS is still uncertain, and most current treatment for IC/BPS are only symptoms control. Our previous study revealed Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection presented in the IC/BPS bladders and involved the pathogenesis. Hence, using anti-viral medication valacyclovir for the patients with IC/BPS might have clinical efficacy.
This is a prospective randomized clinical trial, evaluating the effect of the intra-ureteral placement of the stent's distal end versus the conventional stent placement on the postoperative LUTS and pain.
A retrospective analysis of medical records at Far Eastern Memorial Hospital from January 2008 to May 2020 about female patients with overactive bladder syndrome, who received Solifenacin or Mirabegron as the initial treatment. Factors affecting persistence of OAB medications will be analyzed.
Treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) has been treated successfully by the injection of Botox. The Repris injection needle has a deflection that may assist in injection difficult to reach with standard straight needles. This study will assess the success, safety and patient tolerance of this new injection needle.
Overactive bladder is more prevalent among the Sjogren syndrome's population compare to the general population. Both anti-muscarinic agent and beta-3 agonist are recommended as second line treatment for overactive bladder syndrome. However, theoretically, undesirable effect of the anti-muscarinic agent such as dry mouth and constipation would make it less suitable for Sjogren syndrome patient with overactive bladder. Therefore, this study is a randomised control study with the aim to evaluate the therapeutic effect of beta-3 agonist and anti-muscarinic agent on overactive bladder among sjogren's syndrome patient.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare the Emsella Chair therapy to Sham and to determine whether electromagnetic technology is effective in the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB). Currently there are no other studies utilizing the Emsella Chair for the treatment of OAB. Eligible subjects will receive 2 treatments per week for a total of 4 weeks.
Indwelling double-J ureteral stent (D-J stent) are routinely placed in patients who received ureteroscopic lithotripsy (URL) in Xinhua Hospital Urology Department. At present, three types of D-J stents, namely Cook/Kang Yi Bo(KYB)/Urovisionare are used, and usually removed in the day ward four weeks after surgery. This study intends to randomly divide patients with urolithiasis based on the preoperative OABSS (overactive bladder symptom score) questionnaire into three groups, namely Cook D-J stent group, KYB anti-reflux D-J stent group, Urovision trigonal D-J stent group, with corresponding D-J stent indwelled for 4 weeks respectively. The patient's USSQ ureteral stent symptom questionnaire）scale and OABSS scale were collected at 1 week, 4 weeks (before the removal of D-J stents), and 5 weeks (1 week after removal of D-J stents) after URL operation, and the D-J stents removed from the patients were collected, and their drainage and anti-reflux effects were measured in vitro.
About one to two million women in Taiwan suffers from overactive bladder (OAB). The most commonly used anti-muscarinic drugs have a high rate of side effects. While beta-3 adrenoceptor agonist, Mirabegron, has far fewer side effects, there are no consensus on whether it can be used as first-line treatment. The investigator's preliminary study showed that the concentration of beta-3 adrenoceptor in the urine of OAB patients is higher than that in the normal control group, so comparing urinary beta-3 adrenoceptor concentration of OAB patients before and after treatment may be used as a biomarker of therapeutic effectiveness. The results of this study will be of great help in understanding the effectiveness of Mirabegron and formulating OAB treatment plans.
