Filter by:This study aims to evaluate the correlation of the ultrasonic functional length of the urethra and the incontinence urinary disorder (IUD). The goal is to predict the severity of the IU by measuring new static and dynamic ultrasound parameters of the urethra.
It is claimed that SBO may be responsible for bladder dysfunction in patients without known neurological disease. Subsequently, it was reported that the frequency of SBO in NE cases was higher than normal children. However, in controlled trials, SBO frequency was not different in NE patients compared to the normal population. Conversely, the incidence of dysfunctional bladder in the presence of SBO in NE patients was found to be higher and the response to treatment was worse than in non-SBO patients. The present study aimed to determine whether the frequency of SBO in patients with NE was higher than in healthy subjects, the effect of SBO on the severity of LUTS and whether treatment response of primary NE patients changed in the presence of SBO.
This observational research study will examine whether a medication known as darifenacin (Enablex ®) used for urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) also helps to improve fecal incontinence symptoms. Darifenacin is FDA approved for UUI, but is not FDA approved for fecal incontinence or specifically for dual incontinence (treatment of urinary incontinence and fecal incontinence at the same time). If participants are eligible for this study, they will have had symptoms of bothersome urgency urinary incontinence and fecal incontinence, and have decided to try medication for urgency urinary incontinence. Darifenacin (Enablex ®) is an oral medication which relaxes the bladder muscle to help prevent urgency urinary leakage. It is commonly used to treat overactive bladder and urgency urinary leakage. There is some evidence that this medication may also help with fecal incontinence by slowing the gut and preventing loose stools. Investigators are planning to enroll approximately 30 patients who have both UUI and fecal incontinence and who choose medical treatment as a part of their standard care.
This study will compare voiding assessment based on a minimum spontaneous voided volume of 150 cc with the standard retrograde fill approach in women after pelvic floor procedures.
This open-label proof-of-concept study is designed to evaluate the impact of the leva digital incontinence system on the treatment of stress and mixed urinary incontinence in women over a six week period. Subjects will participate in a 2.5 minute exercise program twice daily (performed at a clinic with therapist assistance 5x weekly, and at home once daily on weekdays and twice daily on weekends. Validated surveys (UDI-6, IIQ-7 and PGI-I) will be used to evaluate symptom relief. A battery of pelvic floor muscle exercises will be performed weekly to evaluate progress in muscle strengthening.
To determine the prevalence of pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence among women in Minnesota using a short web-based self-administered questionnaire.
This is a placebo controlled randomized controlled trial of perioperative use of tamsulosin to prevent postoperative urinary retention in female pelvic reconstructive surgery.
One in five women will undergo prolapse surgery in their lifetime, and there is a strong correlation between prolapse and urinary incontinence. Pelvic floor surgeons aspire to improve relevant quality of life outcomes for women with pelvic floor disorders while minimizing complications and unnecessary procedures. There has been an experience of disappointment and frustration when a patient returns following POP repair with new symptoms of Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) that she ranks as a greater disruption to her quality of life than her original vaginal bulge. While retropubic (RP) slings are considered to be the "gold-standard" referent for other slings with long-term outcomes data, they are associated with the highest risks of intra- and post-operative complications including bladder injury, bleeding, and post-operative voiding dysfunction. Single-incision slings (SIS) are the latest iteration in sling development that build upon the benefits of slings but avoid passage through the muscles of the inner thigh. The hypothesis for this study is that single-incision slings (Altis) are non-inferior to Retropubic mid-urethral slings when placed at the time of native tissue vaginal repair.
Aim: To assess the influence of pelvic floor muscles group training in the quality of life and functionality of these muscles in women with UI. Study design: This is a randomized controlled trial.
The study is aimed to demonstrate the benefits of newly formed written check-list of behavioral instructions and investigate its effects on parent's awareness, consciousness and motivation toward MNE. The parents with children who complain of bed-wetting 3 or more nights per week for at last 14 days, they was randomly divided into three groups. The parents in Group I were instructed only a verbal behavioral therapy, the parents in Group II were instructed a behavioral therapy with a written formed check-list for parents to fulfill and the children in Group III will received desmopressin treatment plus verbal behavioral therapy. All participants were analysed the compliance and response rate of treatment over time period of 8 week.
