Filter by:The SUCCESS Trial is designed to determine whether the Solace Bladder Control System is safe and effective for the treatment of Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) in adult females.
This study will evaluate the safety of the pessary device by objective evaluation of vaginal wall integrity and subjective assessment of comfort during in-use conditions.
The purpose of this study is to get the effect of IncontiLaseTM procedure; and its impact on urinary symptoms and female sexual function.
More than 11 million women in the United States suffer from stress urinary incontinence (SUI), the involuntary leakage of urine during everyday activities that put temporary stress on the abdomen and bladder, such as laughing, coughing, and walking. For women with SUI, this pressure often causes urine to leak involuntarily. SUI affects women of all ages including young mothers, pre-menopausal women, and seniors, and can result in significant emotional distress. Current solutions for SUI include disposable pads, behavioral treatment (pelvic floor physical therapy) and surgical intervention. Patients with SUI who failed conservative treatment and wish to be further treated by a surgery may require further work-up by urodynamic study in which abdominal leak point pressures (ALPP) defined and reflect the severity of SUI. There is continuous need to develop less invasive treatments for SUI that could minimize the use of pads, could be an alternative to painful, costly surgical procedure. The Trendlines Group lab solution is a non-surgical alternative in the treatment of SUI. The concept of the future treatment solution is based on simple physics: injecting a small amount of air into the urinary bladder, which eliminates or greatly reduces involuntary urinary leakage. The air bubble acts as a "shock absorber" to reduce the temporary pressure increase in the bladder that causes urinary leakage. The concept for the new treatment has been tested in a lab environment using lab jig tests and pig urinary system (bladder and urethra). The lab tests showed significant improvement in the bladder pressure when the treatment was implemented by suspending the stress pressure to a level that will not cause urine leakage.
Pelvic organ prolapse occurs with descent of one or more pelvic structures: the uterus and/or cervix, bowel, bladder, or rectum. Although options for treatment include expectant management, pelvic floor physical therapy, and pessary (intravaginal device) use, surgery is the only option which potentially offers a cure. It is well known that women with pelvic organ prolapse are at risk of developing new stress urinary incontinence symptoms after prolapse surgery. Stress urinary incontinence is defined as involuntary loss of urine with an increase in intra-abdominal pressure, such as sneezing, coughing, or laughing. Previous studies have demonstrated that the addition of a prophylactic anti-incontinence procedure at the time of prolapse surgery reduces this risk. One example of such a procedure is a mesh sling placed underneath the urethra (midurethral sling). Nevertheless, the decision to place a midurethral sling to prevent stress urinary incontinence after prolapse surgery remains controversial. A new risk calculator tool has been developed to provide patients' with their individualized risk of developing de novo stress urinary incontinence after prolapse surgery. The primary objective of this study is to determine whether use of this new personalized online risk calculator tool increases patient satisfaction with the decision whether or not to have a midurethral sling placed at the time of prolapse surgery to prevent development of stress urinary incontinence. The investigators hypothesize that use of this tool will increase patient satisfaction with their decision regarding midurethral sling placement.
This purpose of this study is to study is to see if intra-operative urethral length measurement with the Foley catheter will improve the placement of a synthetic sling in the mid-urethra.
This is a prospective, post-market, single arm, multicenter study comparing Baseline data to the 12 month and 36 month data in 136 female patients with Stress Urinary Incontinence
Objective: The primary objective of the study is the comparison of protein concentrations between patients with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and healthy controls. Aim: This pilot study aims to determine a possible altered protein profile in women suffering from SUI, compared to healthy women and therefore to discriminate a potential protein biomarker for SUI. Main outcome measure: mass spectrometric measuring of urinary proteomic secretome in diseased and healthy subjects (sequence coverage and number of identified proteins) Trial design: Prospective case- control study Setting: Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics of the Medical University of Vienna in co- operation with the Core Facilities Proteomics of the Medical University of Vienna Population: Twenty female patients with SUI and twenty healthy patients who attend the outpatient clinic of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Medical University of Vienna (sample size calculation FDR 0.05, power of 80%, assumed proportion of true H0 0.95, assumed standardized effect size of 1) Methods: Examinations to be carried out: patient history, provocative stress test, ICIQ short form questionnaire, residual urine volume (ultrasound) and urine analysis (dipstick testing). A urine sample is obtained from the patient after spontaneous micturition, to which protease inhibitor will be added immediately. Two serum blood vials (each 9ml) are taken from a peripheral vein of the patient for routine laboratory and further research. Proteomics analysis will be performed using chromatographic separation (LC) with mass spectrometric detection (MS).
This three-site randomized controlled trial compares the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a group-administered behavioral treatment program to no treatment. Women with stress, urgency, or mixed urinary incontinence will be recruited and screened centrally, evaluated clinically at each of three study sites, and random assigned to one of two treatment arms: 1. Group behavioral treatment or 2. No treatment. Group treatment modalities have the potential to reach a larger population of older women with urinary incontinence, not only in the traditional medical settings, but also in community settings. The investigators hypothesize that group behavioral treatment will be more effective than no treatment. The investigators hypothesize that the group treatment will be cost-effective compared to no treatment.
This study was designed to evaluate urinary function before and one year after single incision sling placement at the time of robotic sacrocolpopexy. The thought is that the more minimally-invasive, single incision sling would provide a similar subjective success rates as those of retropubic and trans-obturator slings.
