We propose a phase I study of laparoscopic assisted, transvaginal peritoneoscopy by using flexible endoscopy in female patients with pelvic pain. It is designed as a hybrid procedure with laparoscopy using one port for adequate safety with the ultimate goal in the future that transvaginal NOTES can replace therapeutic pelviscopy for this indication. The standard number of port sites for diagnostic laparoscopy is 2-3. By reducing the number and size of laparoscopic port, patients should already experience benefits from this hybrid procedure.
We will rigorously test whether modulation of the motor cortex by transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is an effective treatment for patients with chronic pelvic pain through the following specific aims: A) The primary aim of this study is to determine whether transcranial direct current stimulation applied to the motor cortex in patients with chronic pelvic pain induces a significant decrease in the pain or symptoms as compared with sham tDCS. We will also measure changes in the clinical symptom scores of multiple pelvic organs, drug intake (narcotic), anxiety, depression, traumatic stress, as well as overall improvement in the quality of life to assess the effects of this treatment. B) Determine the duration of the clinical effects of tDCS. We will therefore compare the amelioration of pain and related symptoms between active and sham tDCS for one year following treatment. C) Determine whether tDCS changes the threshold for pain detection as compared with sham tDCS. Patients with chronic pelvic pain have a lower threshold for pain as compared to healthy subjects and we hypothesized that this threshold will increase after stimulation with tDCS. D) Finally, we will examine whether 5 days of tDCS treatment is safe for use in chronic pelvic pain patients. Safety will be assessed through neuropsychological tests and adverse event reporting.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intraprostatic injection of Botox for the treatment of men diagnosed with chronic nonbacterial prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS).
Chronic Prostatitis/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a condition with several causes of which some remain unknown. It is believed that some types of CP may be genetic or passed down (inherited) from one generation to the next. In this study, we are collecting genetic material and medical information to try to determine if genetic factors play a role in CP/CPPS. We will be collecting DNA (from Blood/Saliva sample) and urine from each participant. Bladder tissue from affected individuals will also be collected. Individuals and families with CP/CPPS will be enrolled. Family members of an individual with CP/CPPS are eligible whether or not they also experience CP/CPPS symptoms.
The purpose of this research study is to assess hormone withdrawal symptoms in women while taking an oral contraceptive in the novel 24/4 (24 days of "real" pills) manner in comparison to taking pills in the standard 21/7 (21 "real" pills) manner. It is hypothesized that the 24/4 method will reduce common hormone withdrawal symptoms compared to the standard 21/7 regimen. It is further hypothesized that women using the 24/4 regimen will report greater satisfaction scores.
The aim of this randomized placebo-controlled study is to demonstrate the efficiency and safety of the injection of Botulinum Toxin Type A (200 Units) into the external urethral sphincter for the treatment of chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain.
this study is to determine whether the frequency and severity of pelvic pain or dysmenorrhea are reduced in women with symptomatic endometriosis in whom a Lng IUD is inserted after operative laparoscopy compare with those treated with laparoscopic surgery only
The purpose of initiating the urology database is to collect relevant retrospective data via chart review related to patients undergoing radical prostatectomy via the retropubic, perineal, laparoscopic, and robotic assisted laparoscopic approaches and InterStim implantation. This data will be utilized to evaluate the health benefits and outcomes of each of these procedures to enhance care and treatment.
The study is to collect information from patient charts and patient questionnaires to evaluate the effects of nerve stimulation therapy on urinary dysfunction.
