Filter by:The objective of the study is to demonstrate that the FemPulse System can be used as indicated in the Instructions for Use (IFU), as applicable.
The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of Hibero (Mirabegron) versus active control (Ditropan: Oxybutynin Chloride) in the treatment of pediatric subjects (5 to < 18 years of age) with overactive bladder. This study will further evaluate the safety of mirabegron in pediatric subjects with OAB after multiple dose adminstration.
This study was designed to assess the efficacy of trans cutaneous tibial nerve stimulation on symptoms of overactive bladder in women with idiopathic overactive bladder
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of intravesical Botox injections on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) when administered during ThuLEP surgery in patients with bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) and overactive bladder symptoms (OAB).
An overactive bladder (OAB) is a condition characterized by frequent en nightly voiding, small bladder capacity and the occurrence of sudden urge to void, with or without urinary incontinence. The prevalence of OAB with bothersome complaints is around 11% in women and 9% in men with an increasing incidence with age. OAB is not an illness or disease but nevertheless had a significant impact on both the individual as society. First-line treatment for OAB consists out of behavioral and physiotherapy. Anticholinergic medication can be associated to improve bothersome symptoms, but has the downside of causing unwanted side effects. If the formentioned treatment is not sufficient, second line treatment can be discussed. Depending on the patient's characteristics and the physician's preference intravesical injections of Botox or the implantation of a sacral neuromodulator (SNM) can be considered. Both options are equal and effective, but many individual differences exist in preference. Regarding outcome, some factors have been described to prefer one therapy above the other, for example in case of concomitant fecal incontinence, frequent urinary tract infections,… The personal preference of doctors and patients has been investigated, but currently no study has focused on therapy preference in a culturally and linguistic divers (CALD) population. The latter broadly describes a population with ethnical, cultural, religious and/or language characteristics and is a general accepted measure of diversity. In the current study, the investigators aim to describe the different (dis)advantages of both second line treatments for OAB in a discrete choice experiment. The study population will consist of a diverse group of patients with OAB from different hospitals. The goal is to investigate if CALD patients make a different choice in treatment and what factors contribute to that decision in order to provide more tailored information regarding the treatment options in the future. Taking a patient's context into account in the shared decision making between a patient and physician increases therapy compliance and satisfaction of the chosen treatment. The total questionnaire will consist out of general demographic info, the EQ-5D, the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire (ICIQ)-OAB and the discrete choice questionnaire in which patients make a choice between two fictional treatment options consisting of a combination of different therapy characteristics. The questionnaire will be translated into different languages in order to lower the threshold for participation.
The aim of our study is a comparison of the effects of external electrical stimulation protocols in women with overactive bladder (OAB).
The aim of our study is a comparison of the effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) protocols in women with overactive bladder (OAB).
The study is seeking to understand the needs of patients and healthcare practitioners for an innovation in the way that changes in bladder function are assessed. This information will be used in the design and evaluation of a device, being developed in parallel, that assesses changes to the volume and flow of urine in order to determine changes in bladder function. In order to ensure development is optimal, the principal research objective is therefore to understand the needs of patients and healthcare practitioners (ranging from care home staff and GPs in primary care, to urologists in tertiary referral centres).
In order to develop a test to diagnose overactive bladder from urine, it is essential that this test is at least as accurate as the tools that clinicians currently use. As such, this study will compare the performance of the device in development to the performance of existing methods.
Neurogenic overactive bladder (NOAB) presents with urgency incontinence. Existing NOAB management is expensive, lacks standardized regimens, or is invasive. Therefore, evaluating the effectiveness of non-invasive repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for NOAB management among stroke survivors remains crucial. Objectives: Evaluate the effects of active-rTMS compared to sham-rTMS among stroke survivors with NOAB, the interventions' cost-effectiveness and explore their experiences qualitatively.
