Filter by:This study is an open label, prospective, feasibility study with the Nolix device used for temporary treatment of Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) in subjects, serving as their own controls.
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of duloxetine and pelvic floor muscle training in women who suffer from stress urinary incontinence
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a highly prevalent concern within the female population. Although mid urethral slings (MUS) have been the first line treatment for SUI for almost twenty years, due to recent FDA warnings and many countries banning the use of vaginal mesh, a significant portion of patients now request non-mesh anti-incontinence procedures. In such cases, Burch colposuspension would be the next option discussed with patients. In the short term, the efficacy of Burch colposuspension is comparable to MUS. However, the noteworthy disadvantages of Burch colposuspension include a high rate of urinary retention. This increased risk of urinary retention is due to the acute angle of the stitches, and is a problem that Burch colposuspension shares with the retropubic sling, a type of acutely-angled MUS. A variant of the retropubic sling, the transobturator tape (TOT), has shown that a rounder angle of elevation significantly reduces the risk of urinary retention. As such, this study proposes a novel technique of laparoscopic obturator urethropexy (LOU) as an alternative to the traditional Burch colposuspension. In this new proposed technique, stitches are placed into the obturator internus fascia rather than Cooper's ligament, reducing the angle of elevation of the bladder neck, aiming to lower the risk of post-operative urinary retention. The aim of our randomized control trial is to assess the effectiveness of LOU compared to Burch colposuspension in terms of urinary continence. Our secondary aim is to report on perioperative and postoperative complications, functional outcomes including urinary retention, recurrent urinary tract infection, recurrent/persistent urgency, de novo urgency, recurrent SUI, and sexual function, as well as overall quality of life.
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a condition that affects both men and women. SUI is the involuntary leakage of urine caused by an increase in intra-abdominal pressure from activities such as exercise, coughing, laughing, or sneezing. It can significantly affect quality of life as patients avoid activities or behaviors that cause leakage. This clinical trial will compare the efficacy of the Emsella chair to sham and determine if electromagnetic technology is effective in the treatment of SUI.
The Safety and Efficacy of Micro-energy Ultrasound Therapy in the Treatment of Female Stress Urinary Incontinence: A Multi-center Randomized Trail
There is a high prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI) among female athletes participating in high impact sports, such as artistic gymnastics, trampoline jumping and ball games. UI is defined as "the complaint of involuntary loss of urine". Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is the most common type of UI and is defined as "the complaint of involuntary loss of urine on effort or physical exertion (e.g. sporting activities), or or sneezing or coughing". Urinary leakage during sport activities may affect the athletes' performance, cause bother, frustration and embarrassment and furthermore lead to avoidance and cessation of sport activities. Pelvic floor muscle (PFM) training is highly effective in treating SUI in the general female population. However, evidence of the effect of PFM training in elite athletes in high impact sports is sparse. The purpose of this assessor-blinded randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to assess the effect of PFM training on symptoms, bother and amount of SUI in female artistic gymnasts, team gymnasts and cheerleaders.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect on the overactive bladder in women using a care protocol plus the application of microcurrent patches during 1 hours per session compared to the effect of the same protocol plus placebo electric stimulation.
This study evaluates effectiveness to apply prompted voiding in urinary incontinence and dependence patients admitted at functional recovery ward in a mid-stay hospital. This behavioural therapy is recommended in Best Practice Guidelines, and it has good results in elderly living in the community or in nursing home but yet it has not shown his benefits in hospitalized elderly patients for a long time.
The purpose of this study is to monitor the use of Altis Single Incision Sling (SIS) in a real world population and collect medical data on effectiveness and to monitor safety of Altis SIS at 12 and 36 months post device implantation in women with stress urinary incontinence.
