Filter by:The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of ESWT (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy) and TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) in individuals diagnosed with chronic pelvic pain syndrome and treated with medication. The study was organized as a randomized controlled trial. The sample size is 30 patients suffering from chronic pelvic pain syndrome.
Compression therapy is basic treatment for chronic venous disease (CVD) of the lower limbs. Numerous studies have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of compression therapy in relieving symptoms such as pain, venous edema, leg heaviness and fatigue, as well as accelerating the healing of venous ulcers. It has been established that сompression therapy is indicated for patients with both minimally expressed manifestations of CVD and severe forms of the disease. At the same only one study has been conducted to assess the correction of venous outflow from the lower limbs and pelvis in patients with pelvic varicose vein (PVV) and pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS). However, the incidence of this pathology ranges from 15 to 30% in the female population. The cost to the healthcare system of treating these patients in the United States exceeds $2 billion. To date, the options and indications for compression therapy in patients with concomitant PVV and CVD have not been defined. The rational use of compression in this cohort of patients may contribute to the improvement of effective conservative treatment. In addition, inappropriate prescription of compression to patients with pelvic venous disease (which can be observed in real clinical practice) may discredit this simple, effective and safe therapeutic method. In addition, the research devoted to the problem of compression treatment of PVV will contribute to the development of new special compression products aimed at accelerating venous outflow from the pelvic organs. It can be assumed that this will serve as a stimulus for obtaining new data on the therapeutic effects of compression and create conditions for the creation of new technological directions in the production of compression knitwear.
Pelvic pain is under-reported in healthy adults. Many patients with pelvic pain under-estimate the problem. Chronic pelvic pain can be managed properly, if diagnosed promptly. This is a quantitative analysis of prospective clinical data. It evaluates the management of pelvic pain in a cohort population, and analyzes the treatment outcome.
Rape is a common cause of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among women, as around 30-50% will develop PTSD in the aftermath of rape. A modified protocol based on Prolonged Exposure Therapy (mPE), has been developed, consisting of three to five once or twice weekly 60 minutes sessions, and studies indicate that if implemented early after rape, mPE may prevent the development of PTSD. The aim of the study is to conduct a multi-site (4 Sexual assault care centers in Norway) randomized control trial (RCT) in which patients are recruited early after rape, and randomized to intervention (mPE) or treatment as usual (TAU).
Urethral pain syndrome (UPS) is defined by the occurrence of persistent or recurrent episodic urethral pain in the absence of proven infection or other obvious pathology. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of an intraurethral and vaginal laser therapy for the treatment of UPS. The hypothesis is that a significant reduction of urethral pressure pain can be achieved.
