Filter by:The main objective is to evaluate the clinical efficacy on continence, quality of life and tolerance of the sub-urethral tape I-STOP on male patient suffering of incontinence significant and embarrassing after a radical prostatectomy.
The study is to collect information from patient charts and patient questionnaires to evaluate the effects of nerve stimulation therapy on urinary dysfunction.
The so-called tension-free vaginal tape (TVT), first described in Sweden in 1996, has become a standard operation worldwide for the treatment of women with stress urinary incontinence. This tape is placed from the vagina behind the pubic bone and exits through the skin of the lower abdomen, just above the pubic bone. In 2001 a urologist in France proposed passing a similar tape laterally (as opposed to behind the pubic bone). This tape is passed through a window of the pelvic bones (the so-called obturator foramen), by what is called a transobturator approach. It is passed through the skin of the thigh (as opposed to the lower abdomen). The reason for this modification was to avoid injuring the bladder and, possibly, provide a more physiologic restoration of the continence mechanism. However, it is unclear whether the lateral (so-called transobturator approach) is as good as or better than the initial approach behind the pubic bone. The purpose of the present study is to compare the standard (retropubic) and the newer (transobturator) approach for the placement of a tape for treating women with stress urinary incontinence.
This study is designed to determine the efficacy of escalating doses of ELB245 versus placebo , when administered to patients with OAB and to compare the efficacy of escalating doses of ELB245 versus the standard treatment tolterodine, when administered to patients with OAB.
A novel sensor (a device named sensurine)was developed in the aim of real- time measurement of bladder volume. The sensurine device is a wearable, fully passive, non-invasive and compact heat flow sensor (patent pending) and electronic control unit. The device will serve as a tool for managing and treating bladder dysfunction (by behavioral treatment), such as overactive bladder without incontinence, urge incontinence and voiding difficulties. In this phase I of the clinical trial the sensor unit will be tested for technological feasibility demonstration and for collecting design data.
This study aims as defining success rate of the incontinence ring in women with test proven stress urinary incontinence and determining factors associated with successful use.
After gynecologic surgery, it may be difficult to void (urinate). This problem is usually short-term with normal function returning within a few days to a few weeks. For this reason, patients may require drainage of their bladder with a catheter immediately after surgery. Currently in our office, we use two different tests to see how well you are able to urinate and how quickly the catheter can be removed. The purpose of this study is to see which voiding test is better after gynecologic surgery.
To assess the level of improvement in voiding function after lumbar to sacral ventral nerve re-routing procedure in Spinal Cord Injury and spina bifida patients
Assess the outcomes of vaginal surgeries and its impact on sexual function and urinary symptoms.
The purpose of this study is to see whether Botox A (injected into the bladder muscle) can improve symptoms of urge incontinence that has not improved with usual medical treatments.
