Filter by:Secondary tethered cord syndrome (STCS) has been diagnosed with signs of progressive deterioration in urological or neuroorthopedic systems following primary tethering surgery. However, there is no convincing urological diagnostic clue for STCS.
This study was conducted to assess the efficacy of pulsed electromagnetic field therapy on neurogenic bladder in children with myelomeningocele .Intervention: A pretest-post test controlled study was conducted in out-patient clinic in faculty of physical therapy Cairo university.
The investigators will assess the feasibility of replacing fluoroscopy/iodinated contrast with ultrasound/sulfur hexafluoride lipid-type A microspheres during routine urodynamic studies.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of home transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS) in spinal cord injury(SCI) and to determine the impact on quality of life using TTNS at home
This study investigated effects of the neurogenic bladder on the quality of life in stroke survivors. Patients were divided into two groups: the First group consisted of patients with neurogenic bladder and the Second group consisted of patients without neurogenic bladder.
This is a single-centered, prospective, longitudinal, observational cohort study of patients with MS who suffer from lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and are refractory to two prior treatment modalities who have elected to pursue PTNS therapy for LUTS.
Turkish version of the Neurogenic Bladder Symptom Score questionnaire: a cross-cultural adaptation, reliability and validity study
The lower urinary tract is innervated by the autonomous (sympathetic, parasympathetic) and the somatic nervous system. Afferent information from the lower urinary tract (LUT) (e.g. filling state and volume of the urinary bladder) is conducted via the dorsal roots to the sacral spinal cord and from there to the pontine micturition center (PMC) in the brain stem. The PMC has several connections to other cortical areas. These complex interactions with the cortex enable voluntary control of the LUT and are crucial for urinary continence. The integrity of this neuronal circuit is crucial for an undisturbed function. Deterioration of the nerve fibers due to a systemic neurological disease (e.g. spinal cord injury) can affect LUT function. Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction can lead to urgency, urge incontinence, reduced bladder capacity and secondary deterioration of the upper urinary tract (i.e. kidneys). First-line therapy of neurogenic detrusor overactivity contains antimuscarinic treatment. In case of side effects or remaining detrusor overactivity, nerve stimulation (e.g. sacral neuromodulation and in effect nerve tibialis stimulation) is an accepted therapy option. The precise mechanism of action of these neuro-modulatory procedures is still unknown. Utilizing state-of-the-art neuroimaging techniques, we intend to investigate the functional activation pattern after afferent tibialis nerve stimulation as well as the association with the architecture of the sacral roots. We aime to get a better insight into functional neuromodulation and central nervous processing. The study aim is to evaluate the feasibility in healthy subjects as a pilot study for the application of these method in patients with chronic, incomplete spinal cord injury.
Study to evaluate the efficiency of vaginal estriol, as a treatment for urogenital symptoms in female patients with RRMS. The secondary objective is to evaluate the potential role of vaginal estriol in re-myelination in RRMS patients.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and essential performance of the C2P System in males with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD), both in an acute clinical setting and an extended period of home use.
