Filter by:The rising success of cell therapies places an increasing burden on health care costs. Consequently, the need to reduce production costs while maintaining quality has been widely acknowledged. In addition, the demand for high-quality products with an optimal safety profile is increasing. The proposed cell treatment is the first therapeutical option with the possibility to revert the underlying condition. The investigators expect that this healing response will be achieved with minimal side effects justifying the addional costs and complexity.
The purpose of this study is compare the effect of laser and of kinesiotherapy in the treatment of women with stress urinary incontinence
Observatory of Materiovigilance After Surgery of Urinary Incontinence or Prolapse in Women Implantable medical devices (meshes) used in pelvic organ prolapse surgery (genital prolapse, rectal prolapse), or incontinence surgery may be source of severe complications.
The purpose of this study is to determine the interactions between pregnancy and urinary stress incontinence in women with a mid-urethral sling (MUS). The specific aims of the 2 sub studies are: Study 1: The main aims of Study 1 are to evaluate any potential impact on urinary stress continence after a pregnancy/delivery following MUS surgery, and to evaluate any potential differences in continence status based on the mode of delivery for these women. Study 2: The aim of Study 2 is to examine how obstetric factors may affect the degree of incontinence in women registered in The Norwegian female incontinence registry prior to surgical treatment. In addition, we want to explore if there are obstetric risk factors predicting failure of a MUS surgery performed after pregnancy/delivery.
An increasing number of specific procedures have been described for the surgical repair of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and concomitant stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The investigators introduced an alternative operative method for POP-Q II-III repair and anti-incontinence with the trans vaginal mesh (TVM) anterior edge fixed to the periurethral tissues at the level of mid-urethra. The efficacy and short- and long-term complication profile, of this new surgical technique as compared with those of non-modified TVM.
This study evaluates the effectiveness and complications of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and polypropylene (PP) transobturator suburethral tapes (TOTs) in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence. Half of participants will be operated with PVDF-TOTs, while the other half will be operated with PP ones.
Abstract: Urinary Stress Incontinence (USI)- is a discomforting condition that negatively affects the quality of life of many female individuals and frequently treated by surgical intervention. The incontinence curative operations revolutionized at 1995, with the introduction of the first retro-pubic sub-mid urethral synthetic sling, firstly named Intra-Vaginal Sling-plasty (IVS) and then Tension Free Vaginal Tape (TVT), by Ulmsten and Petros. This was later proposed to be done trans-obturatorly (TOT), for avoiding operative bladder injuries. Among other peri-operative complications attributed to the commonly used anti-incontinence TOT are the thigh and groin pain. These pains are subjects of concern for patients and physicians worldwide. Another, rare yet very disturbing post-operative complication is erosion of the polypropylene tape into the vagina. TOT palpation at vaginal examination was claimed to be a predictive sign for future erosion of the polypropylene tape into the vaginal cavity. This current study aims to compare TVT-Abbrevo procedure (12 cm polypropylene tape, Ethicon J&J Somerville, NJ, USA ) to Serasis procedure (softly knitted monofilament non-absorbable polypropylene, Serag-Wiessner, Naila, Germany) for the cure of USI. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, the safety and the cure rate of both procedures, as well as documenting the post-operative immediate, and long term thigh and groin pain levels, and dyspareunia. This study is aimed to evaluate the palpability of the implanted tapes at vaginal examination and the possible relation of this to further vaginal tape exposure. Investigators hypothesized that using Serasis tape, which is made of a softer polypropylene material than rather rigid TVT-Abbrevo polypropylene tape might result in lower pain levels at the short and long term post-operative course, as well as to reduced tape palpability and exposure to the vaginal cavity. investigators believe that favorable results for this study might improve patients' post-operative quality of life and overall satisfaction.

This study examines the effect of adding so called Kaatsu training to pelvic floor muscle training. Half the participants will perform Kaatsu training on their thigh muscles followed by pelvic floor muscle training. The other half will receive pelvic floor muscle training alone.
Urinary stress incontinence ( SUI ) is defined as an involuntary loss of urinary Complaint no effort According to the Consensus of the International Continence Society (Society Continence International - ICS) . SUI Prevalence of adult female Population and 25 % to 30 %.However, despite the high prevalence, many women who have symptoms of SUI or not seek treatment remain without resolution of symptoms.Then there is the possibility of using non-invasive radiofrequency and non-ablation in external urethral meatus in order to stimulate collagen production, as one of the pathophysiological mechanisms of stress urinary incontinence is the collagen deficit in the urethral wall. It is a randomized clinical trial and the group experimental will utilize radiofrequency and kinesiotheraphy ( clinical and in home) and the group control utilize turn off- radiofrequency and kinesiotherapy (clinical and in home). The protocol f the kinesiotherapy is the same both the group, and the protocol radiofrequency the group experimental will 5 sessions (one per week) with temperature 38ºC during 2 minutes. The group control will 5 sessions (one per week) but the radiofrequency will off but glycerin is heated, for masking for the patient, during 2 min. The result of the treatment is assessed by pad test 1 hour and have others outcomes ( quality of life- Sf-26 ans King Health- and sexual function- FSFI questionaire)
The investigators propose a randomized non-blinded comparison of standard vs. transcorporal approach for placement of an artificial urinary sphincter in male patients with stress urinary incontinence after radiation and radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. In the United States, the artificial urinary sphincter (AUS), manufactured by American Medical Systems, is the gold standard surgical treatment for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in men. The cuff, which is the portion of the device that encircles and occludes the urethra, is typically placed directly around the urethra (i.e., "standard" placement). The cuff can erode into the urethra. Transcorporal placement has been introduced as a method to reduce the risk of erosion. Transcorporal placement involves tunneling the cuff through the erectile bodies so as to protect the dorsal aspect of the urethra. This approach has never been compared to standard placement in a randomized fashion. In the randomized trial, no additional procedures beyond the normal care protocol will be required of the patients. The investigators will conduct the study through an established, IRB-approved multi-institutional network of surgeons. Success will be assessed via objective and subjective methods; complications will be tallied in a standardized fashion. Outcomes will be measured at two years.
