Filter by:This study is to evaluate the effectiveness of identifying stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in female subjects using the Induced Reflex Cough Test (IRCT) administered with urodynamic testing by evaluation of sensitivity and specificity.
Objective: To compare TVT with COLPOSUSPENSION (CS) as primary treatment for stress incontinence (SUI). Design: Randomised, open, comparative trial 3-years follow-up. Participants: 49 consecutive 35 to 70 years old women with urodynamic SUI. Setting: Urology department of a district general hospital at Leganés (Madrid), Spain. Intervention: 24 patients randomised to TVT and 25 to CS.
The prevalence of urinary stress incontinence in middle age women is rated at about 30%. To date, there is an increasing use in the clinical practice of new techniques for the treatment of this condition and several surgical devices, characterized by minimally invasive approach, are commercialized. Recently, single-incision devices have been proposed. One of the most relevant potential advantages of these devices is the possibility of performing their positioning under local anesthesia, thus, in ambulatory regimen. The employment of these devices is particularly useful in two subgroups of patients with urinary incontinence, i.e. women with genuine stress incontinence not associated to pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and women whose stress incontinence raised after surgical correction of (severe) POP. Poor data coming from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are available regarding single-incision devices for the treatment of stress incontinence, and there are no conclusions in terms of their feasibility, efficacy and safety. Finally, to our knowledge no randomized controlled trial is actually available in literature comparing different single-incision devices.
The purpose of this study was to test the suitability of dynamic magnetic resonance imaging for the pelvic floor floor, bladder neck and urethra in healthy volunteers, in stress incontinent patient and in women with genital prolapse.
There are many ways to perform a suprapubic approach pubovaginal sling. Some surgeons inject local pain medical into the retropubic space before placing the sling, others do not. This study is to determine if injection of local pain medication into the retropubic space before placing a mid-urethral sling for urinary stress incontinence results in lower postoperative pain scores, lower use of postoperative narcotic medication and lower rates of urinary retention.
This project will be a randomized, double blinded, placebo controlled clinical trial. The aim of the trial is to determine whether or not post-operative prophylaxis with macrobid will decrease the incidence of postoperative urinary tract infection in women receiving sub-urethral slings for the treatment of urinary incontinence.
The pre-pubic approach of the tension free vaginal sling placement is a new approach in the treatment of SUI. The retropubic approach of the tension free vaginal sling is the standard method of device delivery; in addition a suprapubic and a transobturator approach are alternative methods of delivery. All of these delivery approach systems are intended to place the mesh "tension free" in the mid-urethra. There are currently no studies that investigate the pre-pubic delivery approach in the United States. However, the largest series of cases in Europe using the pre-pubic system was done by Ulmsten (published in the European Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Reproductive Biology) 107 (2003) 205-207, titled " Pre-Pubic tension free vaginal tape application: an alternative to classic tension free vaginal tape application in selected patients with SUI." The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of using a pre-pubic approach to the placement of a mid-urethral vaginal mesh. - Demonstrate the mesh can be properly placed in the mid-urethra using a pre-pubic approach; - Assess the performance of the delivery device by measuring the ease of use, technical complexity, and instrument difficulties
Registry to gather information about the long term use of the Prefyx PPS System for the treatment of Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI).
To investigate the role of preoperative maximum urethral closure pressure and Valsalva leak point pressure in predicting outcome in patients who underwent trans-obturator tape for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.
The primary purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of Bulkamid® in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) in adult women who have SUI or stress predominant mixed incontinence
