Filter by:The study was conducted between 2004 and 2006 to prove efficacy and tolerability of the antimuscarinic propiverine compared to placebo in children suffering from non-neurogenic overactive bladder and urinary incontinence.
People who do not have adequate amounts of vitamin D develop weakness of leg and arm muscles. This study will determine if vitamin D supplementation benefits muscle functions important for swallowing, bladder and bowel function.
The primary purpose of this study is to measure the efficacy of solifenacin succinate (VESIcare) on treating urinary incontinence in Parkinson's disease patients. The secondary objective of this study is to examine the effect of solifenacin succinate (VESIcare) on symptoms of PD and the patient's quality of life.
To evaluate the impact of Burch colposuspension (BC), as an anti-incontinence measure, in patients with urinary incontinence (UI) undergoing abdominal surgery for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair
Transobturatory tape (TOT) procedure is a minimally invasive approach to urinary stress incontinence owing to the category of the sling-adopting procedures. Its efficacy and safety, also in comparison with similar procedures have been demonstrated. The benefits of the sling- adopting procedures in comparison to laparoscopic Burch colposuspension, which has been considered as the gold standard treatment, have been showed. But these comparisons did not included the TOT procedure in the experimental arms. Based on this considerations the aim of this trial will be to compare TOT and laparoscopic Burch colposuspension in women with urinary stress incontinence.
The objective of the study was to evaluate the impact AFS and TVT procedures on quality-of-life in incontinent women.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of SSR240600C in women with overactive bladder compared to placebo using tolterodine as a study calibrator.
Aging, birth trauma and extensive pelvic surgery are the causes known to cause advanced pelvic organ prolaspe, fecal as well as urinary incontinence. Surgical treatment is the last resort to manage the above-mentioned clinical manifestations of pelvic floor disorders except the subject is too frail to receive operation. In order to improve the outcome of reconstructive pelvic surgery, reinforcement with synthetic mesh or biological material is the modern trend in pelvic repair. Unfortunately no prosthesis including synthetic or biological is ideal because vaginal erosion with mesh extrusion which is the subject of this protocol and other complications were reported continuously. As per the literature, the rate for mesh vaginal extrusion ranged between 2.4 and 17% when polypropylene which is the most popular synthetic material used for the mid-urethral sling or pelvic reconstructive surgery to date. The causes of this complication are still controversial which include rejection, poor quality of tissue, surgical artifact, material of mesh and etc. A prospective controlled study for the investigation of the cause for mesh vaginal erosion was conducted and the results revealed evidences of immune reactivity after mesh implantation, albeit the evidence was not solid (Am J Obstet Gynecol 2004; 191(6): 1868-1874 ). As per the pilot study initially done by us to determine the biofilm-related-infection, we have found bacterial biofilm could adhere to surfaces and interfaces, i.e. bacteria located in the cells just beneath the contacting surfaces in the electron microscopic (EM) analysis. In addition, soon after bacteria infection, proteins in biofilm undergo conformational changes, making them immunogenic and triggers a typical inflammatory response leading to activation of the complement system. Thus, we plan to use CD (clusters of differentiation) antigens - 4, 8, 20, 25, 40, 68 and quantitative analysis of FoxP3 to determine the function of regulatory T cells in the immune response. In addition, bacterial culture and EM analysis of the excised mesh with surrounding vagina tissue will be performed for further analysis of biofilms.
RATIONALE: Highly focused ultrasound energy may be able to kill tumor cells by heating the tumor without affecting the surrounding tissue. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well highly focused ultrasound energy works in treating patients with localized prostate cancer.
Objective: Compare pelvic floor disorders (urinary incontinence, anal incontinence, genital prolapse, perineal pain, sexual troubles) 12 month after a first delivery between a group of women with prenatal pelvic floor exercises and a control group. Hypothesis: Prenatal pelvic floor exercises reduce postpartum urinary incontinence.
