Pelvic ring fractures in the elderly are associated with high morbidity during standard conservative treatment due to immobility. Furthermore the risk of long term dependence even after the fracture has united is high. In analogy to the treatment of hip fractures in a similar patient population, patients might benefit from surgical treatment due to a reduction in pain and early mobilization.
This project will develop and preliminarily examine RESPECT, a trauma-sensitive psychological and physical therapy intervention to treat chronic pelvic pain, posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTS), and dysfunctional sexual behavior among women with sexual abuse histories. Patients will be recruited after being referred to pelvic floor physical therapy for treatment of chronic pelvic pain. Participants will complete seven sessions of individual cognitive behavioral psychotherapy. Physical therapy will be provided by clinicians who have been trained in trauma-sensitive treatment techniques. Treatment acceptability and outcomes will be assessed at baseline, mid intervention, post-intervention and follow-up via self-report measures. The RESPECT protocol is expected to be feasible to implement among sexual abuse survivors and to be well liked by patients. RESPECT is expected to reduce chronic pelvic pain, PTS, dysfunctional sexual behavior, treatment avoidance.
Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) affects many adult men worldwide. So far, available therapies offer little or no proven benefit to CP/CPPS. The investigators design and implement this study is to assess efficacy of acupuncture therapy performed in the CP/CPPS .
Adenomyosis is characterized by the appearance of endometrial cells in the muscular layer of the uterus. It affects about 15-20% of the female population. The symptoms of adenomyosis are heavy menstrual bleedings and painful menstruation (dysmenorrhea) and in addition chronic pelvic pain. Regarding treatment levonogestrel-releasing intrauterine system, Gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH)-analogues, Danazol, uterine embolization and endometrial ablation have been tried. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and usefulness of association of oral contraceptive pill and LNG-IUS or LNG-IUS alone
Pelvic ultrasound is frequently performed in the ED in non-pregnant women to assess for ovarian pathology, though its use has not been described in the medical literature. This observational study aims to describe its use in clinical ED practice.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of electro-kinetically modified water (EMW) beverage, consumed twice daily (BID) for 3 months in the management of endometriosis associated pain, and to evaluate the effect of EMW consumption on analgesic use for endometriosis associated pain.
This study investigates comparing the effects of transcranial Pulsed Current Stimulation and transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) (Soterix ©) and their combination on neurophysiological outcomes on healthy subjects as well as on the clinical population for chronic visceral pain. The study also aims to evaluate the effects of these techniques on pain thresholds in healthy subjects as well as for chronic visceral pain patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine the percentage of women, among those attending our institute in order to do Pap test, suffering of chronic pelvic pain. To such purpose the patients will be submitted to questionnaires.
