Filter by:The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of using virtual reality glasses as a distraction method on anxiety in men undergoing cystoscopy under local anaesthesia.
Bladder cancer (BC) is one of the most common type of cancer globally. Due to its high incidence rate, high risk of recurrence and progression, and frequent cystoscopy surveillance, BC contributes to major healthcare costs across the world. The goal of this prospective study was to evaluate the prognostic value of novel non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) biomarkers for predicting disease recurrence or progression after radical transurethral resection of bladder tumour (TURBT). The data obtained from this study may help physicians identify patients who are at greater risk of NMIBC recurrence or progression and require close supervision.
Today the standard for the diagnosis and monitoring of bladder tumors is bladder endoscopy. The performance of this exam is not perfect. With this work, based on artificial intelligence, the investigators wish to combine endoscopy with a complementary diagnostic tool in order to improve patient care. The main objective will be to reduce diagnostic errors / wanderings in patients treated or followed for bladder tumors, by imposing a new standard of diagnostic bladder mapping (high PPV and VPN, high precision)(primary purpose diagnostic). The secondary objective will be to homogenize and systematize the descriptive part of the lesions, and to use AI to better characterize tumor aggressiveness. The final objective being to validate a new precision tool (diagnostic companion) essential for developing and standardizing the therapeutic management of bladder tumors (correcting inter-observer heterogeneity). In this project, video frame will be first extracted from our dataset of cystoscopy videos hosted in in the Next Cloud Recherche. Selected medical image will be segmented and analyzed using our pre-trained CNN model with a feature detection algorithm to obtain features. Data will be analyzed on both patient and lesion levels. The study will assess the Bladder-PAD accuracy on the detection of bladder tumors, and its ability to predict tumor risk of recurrence and progression.
An investigation comparing the reliability of dye-aided versus dye-less evaluation of urinary tract integrity during intra-operative cystoscopy among patients undergoing hysterectomy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of the single-use Ambu® aScope™ 4 Cysto for removal of ureteral stents as compared to routine flexible reusable cystoscopes.
This study aimed to investigate the effects of pure binaural beats on anxiety levels and pain scores using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) questionnaire and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) in male patients undergoing DC and USR procedures under local anesthesia.
This study will be a double-blind, randomized control trial, with one additional unblinded arm. This study has been designed to identify a means of improving quality of life for patients requiring in-office cystoscopy. Percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) has been shown to improve quality of life and symptom control in multiple urological conditions based on shared neuroanatomical structures between the genitourinary system and the tibial nerve The goal of this project is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of PTNS in minimizing patient discomfort during cystoscopy to develop a larger randomized control trial in the near future.
Aims and objectives: This study aimed to determine the effect of music therapy on procedural pain intensity and anxiety and comfort levels in patients during cystoscopy. Background: Cystoscopy is a procedure that is commonly performed as day surgery in urology clinics in order to diagnose lower urinary tract system symptoms as well as to diagnose and follow up tumors associated with the lower urinary system. During cystoscopy, which is an invasive intervention, individuals may experience pain and anxiety, and their comfort may be negatively affected. Methods: This study was a prospective, randomized controlled trial. Study participants were randomly assigned to either a control or music group. The outcome measures were assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale, State Anxiety Scale, and General Comfort Questionnaire. This report followed the CONSORT checklist.
Identify by culture the urinary microbiota of patients with bladder cancer (at the time of diagnosis) and controls.Identify by metagenomics the urinary microbiota of patients with bladder cancer (at the time of diagnosis) and controls.
This study is to determine if there is a clinically meaningful difference in pain perception for women during in-office diagnostic flexible cystoscopy when using lidocaine gel vs plain lubricant. This will be a double blinded randomized control trial.
