Filter by:ERAS protocols have been shown to improve recovery in terms of reduced pain, shortened time to ambulation and length of hospital stay. This study aims to investigate the impact of ERAS protocol on time to mobilization and length of hospital stay in patients undergoing surgery for urinary incontinence and pelvic prolapse.
The management of urinary incontinence seems to improve daily activities and the practice of physical activity, according to the literature. Unfortunately, all of these studies are based on self-questionnaires with the disadvantages of self-evaluation, more subjective. For several years activity sensors have been used in the medical field (rheumatology, cardiology, diabetology, etc.). They allowed the evaluation of physical activity in real life situations, whether to evaluate the degree of severity of a pathology or the impact of a new treatment on the resumption of activities. Activity sensors are devices that transform body motion into digital measurements. They provide detailed information on the frequency, duration, intensity and type of movement to determine, for example, the number of steps taken, the distance traveled, calories burned and the quality of sleep. It is hypothesized that urinary incontinence treatment can increase physical activity and so improve the quality of life of patients, that can be measure by activity sensors.
This is a confirmatory/bridging study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Autologous Muscle Derived Cells for Urinary Sphincter Repair (AMDC-USR) compared with placebo in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in adult Japanese female subjects. Half of the participants will receive AMDC-USR (injections with cells) and the other half will receive placebo.
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of a supervised physical exercise program during pregnancy on urinary incontinence.
Patients seen with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) that have failed conservative treatments will be offered to participate in a sham controlled RCT of outpatient therapy with the Fotona Smooth Erbium Yag laser. Patients will be randomised to either outpatient laser treatments or sham treatments. Patients will be blinded to which arm they have been randomised. Patients will be asked to complete appropriate relevant symptom and quality of life questionnaires prior to treatment and then at 6 and 12 months following the final treatment. At 6 months Sham patients will be un-blinded and offered the laser therapy if they wish.
To develop an audiovisual decision aid (AVDA) to improve the informed consent process. The investigators aim to examine the impact of a comprehensible AVDA that is written below the 8th grade reading level. The AVDA would be used for surgical consent compared to traditional verbal consent. Additionally, the investigators plan to determine whether this effect varies across the measured levels of health literacy of our patients.
Nearly half of all adult women suffer with Urinary incontinence (UI), this is more common in athletes. UI is considered to be due to weak pelvic floor muscles. Standard advice encourages strength and endurance training; however, assessment of pelvic floor muscles can sometimes reveal overactive or tight tissues. Evidence suggests athletes have stronger pelvic floors than non-athletes. If the pelvic floor is overactive, general advice regarding pelvic floor strengthening will not improve UI, and may make it worse. This study will explore the feasibility of conducting a larger trial to identify cost effectiveness and benefits of treating athletes with physiotherapy and how this might differ from current practice. 15 -20 athletic women will complete questionnaires regarding their UI and its effects on them. They will receive physiotherapy; the assessment will include a history and internal examination of their pelvic floor. This will inform a tailored rehabilitation program. Interviews will be conducted with some of these women to explore their response to the intervention. Interviews with health professionals will establish current practice for this patient group. The results will tell us how likely it is for athletes to volunteer and take part in a future study and which outcomes are useful.
After birth, the perineum has to be trained in order to recover its functions. This study is designed to assess the quality of life evolution with the EMY connected device. The secondary purposes are to evaluate patient compliance to the EMY probe, to observe the evolution of urine scores over the duration of the trial in order to consider a comparative study thereafter, and to evaluate the interest of using the EMY connected perineal probe in the context of stress urinary incontinence.
Study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Yoni.Fit for the temporary management of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women.
The objective of this study is to (1) use participatory ergonomics to adapt and in-person 3-session intervention: Mind Over Matter: Healthy Bowels, Healthy Bladder (MOM) to an electronic program (eMOM), and to (2) compare and characterize eMOM's reach when marketed via community agencies versus Facebook advertising and to collect qualitative and quantitative data about effectiveness and uptake of key behaviors using electronic surveys and phone interviews. The study will also collect information from community agencies that might implement eMOM about its perceived value and their willingness and capacity to implement such a program.
