View clinical trials related to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.
Filter by:The investigators wish to perform a prospective study at the Men's Health Clinic in Winnipeg, Manitoba to accomplish two goals: 1) Prospectively describe 1 year outcomes for MIST therapies performed at the clinic 2) perform a head to head comparison of Rezum water vapor therapy vs the iTind device in respect to symptom score improvement, uroflow parameters and side effect profile.
The aim of the current study is to evaluate the efficacy of transperineal focal microwave ablation (TMA) of the prostate transition zone as a new treatment for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) within a prospective single-institutional pilot study.
This study aims to assess the role of intraprostatic injection of tranexamic acid in decreasing the blood loss during Transurethral resection of the prostate.
new treatment modality for BPH , less invasive and more effective.
The objective of the RELIEF Study is to compare the safety, effectiveness and patient experience outcomes in real-world subjects treated with different modalities for symptomatic BPH.
The study is seeking to understand the needs of patients and healthcare practitioners for an innovation in the way that changes in bladder function are assessed. This information will be used in the design and evaluation of a device, being developed in parallel, that assesses changes to the volume and flow of urine in order to determine changes in bladder function. In order to ensure development is optimal, the principal research objective is therefore to understand the needs of patients and healthcare practitioners (ranging from care home staff and GPs in primary care, to urologists in tertiary referral centres).
A post-marketing study using Optilume Catheter System for benign prostatic hyperplasia.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the most common benign neoplasm in men. Almost 90% of men in their 70s report lower urinary tract symptoms related to BPH. These symptoms carry a significant negative impact on the patients' quality of life. Despite the wide availability of surgical offerings to relieve bladder outlet obstruction such as transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate (HoLEP), and prostatectomy, many patients still suffer from persistent LUTS after undergoing these. A study describing postoperative outcomes following HoLEP revealed that patients with severe lower urinary tract symptoms, storage-positive sub-score, and high maximum urinary flow rate before the surgery were affected by a rebound of mainly storage symptoms 6-8 weeks after HoLEP and prolonged recovery from LUTS with 7.4% of them presenting for persistent urge complaints. Optimizing the management approach for these patients has been limited by lack of high level evidence-based recommendations and expert consensus. Intravesical botox injections are well-established therapeutic options for several urinary disorders. The current practice offers intravesical botox injections to patients who suffer from persistent urinary symptoms few months after their BPH procedure. This study aims to evaluate if giving botox injections at the time of the HoLEP surgery would yield a better outcome than performing the two procedures separately at different times (few months apart). The concomitant use of botox injection during bladder de-obstructing procedures has been previously studied in TURP and have showed a significant reduction of incontinence episodes and OAB symptoms in the group that were treated with botox injections after 36 weeks post TURP. This data may suggest promising potential of this intervention in managing persistent OAB symptoms in patients with BOO. However, the efficacy of combining HoLEP and bladder Botox injections has not been systematically studied and evaluated. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of intravesical Botox injections on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) when administered during HoLEP surgery in patients with bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) and overactive bladder symptoms (OAB). The investigators are interested in comparing the postoperative outcome in terms of recovery and symptom relief in patients who performed HoLEP surgery with bladder Botox injections versus those who performed HoLEP surgery only at 2 weeks,1 month, 3 months, and 6 months postoperatively. The investigators hypothesize that administering bladder botox injections during HoLEP surgery is a combination treatment that will result in faster and more potent symptom relief compared to patients who received only a HoLEP surgery for their obstructive and irritative symptoms.
This trial is comparing the effects and safety in treating men with benign prostatic hyperplasia between high freqnence irreversible electroporation and trans urethral resection prostate.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition in aging men that is frequently associated with troublesome lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) which can be divided into storage phase symptoms (urinary frequency, urinary urgency, increased nocturia, urinary incontinence, etc.), voiding phase symptoms (interruption of urination, thinning of the urine line, straining to urinate, etc.), and post-void symptoms (incomplete sensation of urination, dribbling after urination, etc.).BPH is prevalent in as many as 40% of men in their fifties and 90% of men in their eighties.Yet, few effective therapiesare available for treating BPH/LUTS. Acupuncture may be an effective treatment option for BPH/LUTS.However, effects of acupuncture on BPH/LUTS remain uncertain because of the small sample sizes or other methodological limitations. The objective of this randomized,conventional electroacupuncture-controlled trial is to assess the effectiveness of electroacupuncture at'four sacral points'for relieving symptoms of BPH/LUTS. The results will provide a robust conclusion with a highlevel of evidence.
