Filter by:Pelvic floor dysfunction is commonly seen in the postpartum women with symptoms including urinary urgency and frequency, urinary incontinence and fecal incontinence. Pelvic floor physical therapy (PFPT) and home biofeedback devices have been shown to improve pelvic floor symptoms in postpartum and non-postpartum populations, respectively. This randomized noninferiority clinical trial will assess urinary incontinence-related quality of life in postpartum women with self-reported urinary incontinence who are randomized to a program of home biofeedback or pelvic floor physical therapy.
Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is the first line treatment of urinary incontinence (UI), anal incontinence (AI) and mild/moderate pelvic organ prolapse (POP) in women. However, 25 to 40% of women with pelvic floor dysfunction symptoms are unable to voluntarily contract their pelvic floor muscle (PFM) and PFM proprioception of this population is specially reduced. Literature is scarce about methods to facilitate a voluntary PFM contraction and improve PFM proprioception therefore, a specific protocol structured to teach PFM contraction is needed. The use of biofeedback could facilitate women´s capacity to voluntary contract their PFM.
The aim of the study was to compare the effects of stabilization exercises and pelvic floor muscle training in women with stress urinary incontinence.
Background: Enuresis nocturna is an important social and psychological problem in children. Uroflowmetry is an important test used to investigate lower urinary tract symptoms.. Objective:To evaluate the uroflowmetry (UFM) results of children with nocturnal enuresis (NE). Method: The uroflowmetry findings of healthy and visualized children without any urinary symptoms and who were prospectively admitted to the urology and pediatric surgery outpatient clinic with the complaint of Enuresis nocturna between January 2020 and July 2021 were compared. Information (anamnesis, physical examination, radiology results and laboratory tests) and uroflowmetry results of NE and healthy children included in the study were recorded.
This project seeks to understand whether, and how, tailoring an online continence intervention can increase engagement and uptake of health behaviors known to improve bladder and bowel symptoms.
The recommended treatment for urinary incontinence (UI) in women is individualized pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT), a costly and resource-intensive approach; one Canada is currently unable to meet. A recent non-inferiority randomized controlled trial just confirmed that group-based PFMT is equally effective but less resource-intensive (more cost-effective) than individual PFMT to treat UI in older women (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02039830). In times of COVID-19 however, with the Quebec, Canada's public health authorities preventing gatherings to stop the virus' spread, the potential of in-person group approaches is temporarily limited. It is thus important to develop innovative ways to deliver this first-line treatment remotely, particularly for those confined at home for whom UI can have a detrimental impact on physical health and quality of life. Ensuring an online option for group-based PFMT would also allow to increase the accessibility of UI treatment for women living in rural or remote areas in Canada, where pelvic floor rehabilitation services are not available or scarce. To this end, this study will assess the feasibility, acceptability and effects of a tele-rehabilitation PFMT group program for UI in older women.
This study will evaluate the in-use tolerance of an absorbent disposable underwear pant developed for children with nocturnal enuresis by assessing adverse events. In addition product performance will be assessed by the parent at home via a daily diary.
Benign prostatic hypertrophy or prostatic adenoma is a benign tumour that develops in the central part of the prostate. Prostatic adenoma can result in the progressive appearance of a difficulty in evacuating the bladder or frequent urges to urinate and other complications (lithiasis, haematuria, urinary retention, etc.). Surgery is indicated when medical treatment is no longer effective and in the case of complications. The endoscopic techniques for treating prostate adenoma, PLASMA and HOLEP, are recognised and recommended by the French Association of Urology and the European Association of Urology (EAU) as Gold Standard techniques in view of the good results reported in the literature, the low rate of complications compared to the other techniques, and the reduced hospitalisation rate. For prostate volumes less than 80cc, there is no difference between HOLEP and Bipolar Plasma Enucleation of the Prostate (BTUEP) in terms of International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Qmax, and reoperation rate at 12 months. The surgeon's experience is the most important factor influencing the risk of complications for HOLEP. Urinary incontinence after HOLEP according to Houssin et al. is 14.5% at 3 months and 4.2% at 6 months, the risk factors identified were surgeon experience and the existence of diabetes. Comparative evaluation of the two techniques is less frequent, hence the interest of our prospective and multicentre study. In this study, the investigators hope to demonstrate a better outcome of the PLASMA technique in terms of post-operative residual urinary incontinence.
Telerehabilitation (TR) refers to the provision of rehabilitation services through information and communication technologies. The most widely used of these technologies are applications such as telephone and video conferencing. Urinary incontinence is defined as involuntary urinary incontinence ). This condition, which affects both sexes, is more common in women. Urinary incontinence is caused by dysfunction in the bladder and pelvic floor muscles in women during menopause, childbirth, or pregnancy. Urinary incontinence is a health problem that significantly affects people's social interactions, interests, and psychosocial status. It has been shown that even mild incontinence complaints cause a decrease in the quality of life in women. Pelvic floor muscle training is one of the conservative treatment methods used in the treatment of urinary incontinence.Adding breathing exercises and deep abdominal muscle strengthening exercises to pelvic floor muscle training may be beneficial in patients with urinary incontinence. In patients with urinary incontinence, women who are in regular communication with the supervisor during pelvic floor muscle training are more likely to gain higher from the program. However, it has not been shown that group physiotherapy is less effective than physiotherapy administered individually in reducing incontinence episodes. In the light of this information in the literature, our research hypothesis is that in patients with urinary incontinence, follow-up the pelvic floor muscle training, breathing exercise, and core exercise training with individually video conference method can have positive effects on patients' muscle strength, incontinence degree, quality of life, patient satisfaction, exercise adherence, and sexual function.
Purpose: A lot of etiological factors related to overactive bladder (OAB) has been investigated. However, the role of primary nocturnal enuresis (NE), which is characterized with childhood night time incontinence, in the etiology of OAB is controversial. This study aims to evaluate the effect of NE in patients diagnosed with OAB. Metod Between january-september 2021, the data of patients who applied to the urology outpatientclinic with OAB symptoms were collected. Patients with a history of chronic systemic disease, previous medical treatment for OAB and who did not accept to join the study were excluded. According to the diagnosis of childhood NE, patients were divided into two groups. Demographic data hav been recorded. Frequency of incontinence, number of day time void and nocturia were evaluated according to a 3 day voiding diary. Inaddition, max. Urinary flowr atio (Qmax), bladder Wall thickness and postvoid residual volüme rates were determined using uroflowmetry and pelvic ultrasound.
