Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare an automated bladder diary (autoBD) to a paper bladder diary (pBD) on their level of agreement, patient compliance and satisfaction. It is a mixed methods, randomized 2x2 crossover trial. Pediatric patients (6 to 12 years) presenting to the clinic and identified as requiring a bladder diary will be recruited. Participants will be randomized either to group 1, where they complete the paper bladder diary (pBD) and then the automated bladder diary (autoBD), or to group 2, where they complete the autoBD and then the pBD. Both diaries are kept for at least 2 consecutive days with a wash-out period of 2 to 6 days between the two diaries. Mean differences and the level of agreement between the pBD and autoBD will be analysed using Bland Altman plots for key diary parameters. After completion of each diary format, participants will complete a short online survey regarding compliance, satisfaction and their preference, if any. Finally, a selection of participants and their parents will be invited for an open-ended interview. The participating healthcare professionals will be asked to score each pBD and autoBD on patient compliance when processing the diary. Furthermore, surveys and open-ended interviews will be conducted to assess their overall satisfaction of each diary type and their preference, if any.
The aim of the study is to examine and compare the effects of yoga-based and pilates-based respiratory training on incontinence severity, pelvic floor muscle function and quality of life in the rehabilitation of individuals with urinary incontinence.
Children in primary school often suffer from lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), which may negatively impact their overall well-being. Co-occurring neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) can adversely affect children as well and can cause restrictions in their daily life, especially in their school-environment. The goal of this observational study is to identify the prevalence of LUTS in Flemish primary school children.The main questions it aims to answer are: - How prevalent are LUTS in regular primary education? - Is there a relation with well-being in school environment? - Is there an influence of co-occuring NDDs? Children, parents and teachers will be asked to fill in questionnaires related to this research question.
The aim of this study is to investigate whether the activity in brain areas controlling the bladder is different among children suffering from Overactive Bladder (OAB) and Daytime Urinary Incontinence (DUI) compared to age- and gender-matched healthy children without bladder symptoms. Moreover, the aim is to investigate if sacral transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation (TENS) has a central mechanism of action. Children with OAB and DUI will be recruited from involved pediatric departments, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) will be performed before and after 10 weeks of sacral TENS. In healthy children without bladder symptoms, only the baseline fMRI will be performed.
To conduct a retrospective study to examine the effect of these conservative treatments to the symptoms and quality of life of patients with urinary incontinence. The investigators will use both subjective and objective assessment parameters, such as self-report symptoms, bladder diary, pad test and urodynamic study to access the improvement.
Postmenopausal women frequently report physical (hot flushes, night sweat, insomnia, vaginal dryness, sexual dysfunction, urinary incontinence, reduced fitness level, osteoporotic symptoms, sarcopenia, decreased fat free mass, etc.) and psychological (depression, anxiety, cognitive decline, etc.) symptoms. Among these symptoms, urinary incontinence is one of the most common manifestations of pelvic floor dysfunction and may significantly impact on women's quality of life. Urinary incontinence is highly prevalent (30%) in postmenopausal women and is primarily attributed to the decreased level of estrogen. Other potential risk factors for urinary incontinence after menopause include age, parity, genetic factors, pregnancy, overweight/obesity, low physical activity levels, diabetes, urinary tract infection, etc. International guidelines recommend lifestyle and behavioral change, pelvic floor muscle training and bladder training as first-line treatments for urinary incontinence in postmenopausal women. During the COVID-19 pandemic, access to and utilization of healthcare services is reduced. As travel distance has been reported as one of the strong barriers to healthcare among patients with incontinence, research has been conducted to investigate the applications and effects of telehealth. While telehealth rehabilitation may improve urinary incontinence symptoms, the field is still emerging and more studies are needed to elucidate how physical therapists can perform telehealth pelvic floor muscle training for urinary incontinence. The objectives of this three-year study are: 1. to investigate the feasibility of a telehealth-delivered physical therapy program for postmenopausal women with urinary incontinence 2. to explore the effects of a telehealth-delivered physical therapy program on urinary incontinence symptoms, pelvic floor muscle function and quality of life in postmenopausal women with urinary incontinence 3. to compare the effectiveness of telehealth physical therapy program with face-to-face physical therapy in this population 4. to compare body composition, physical activity levels, functional capacity, grip strength, urinary incontinence symptoms, and pelvic floor muscles function in women at early versus late stage of post-menopause 5. to evaluate the relationships between duration after menopause and body composition, physical activity levels, functional capacity, grip strength, urinary incontinence symptoms, and pelvic floor muscles function
The study will enroll 113 participants, randomly will be assigned to one of three groups will receive either group A will receive combined therapy of biofeedback training and osteopathy techniques, group B will receive biofeedback training, group C will receive osteopathy technique only over a period of 10 weeks, followed by an 8-week follow-up period. Outcome measures will include the 24-hour pad test, Pediatric Lower Urinary Tract Symptom Score (PLUTSS), and the bladder diary.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the short-term improvement in urinary incontinence after perineo-sphincter rehabilitation using functional electrostimulation and biofeedback (PHENIX LIBERTY VIVALTIS device) in patients with pelvic statics disorders. • Does the use of the medical device in the treatment of pelvic static disorders lead to an improvement in urinary incontinence? Participants will use the medical device, which provides electrical stimulation, biofeedback and pressure biofeedback to re-educate the pelvic floor muscles and improve urinary incontinence.
The purpose of this early feasibility prospective study is to gain initial understanding of the effect of acute peri-urethral neurostimulation on the perineal nerves on intra-urethral pressure.
The study aims at investigating the possible correlation between core stability muscles and urinary incontinence following Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy. Sixty-two patients who are candidates for Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy will be enrolled. All participants will be asked to be evaluated in their core stability functionality 30-40 days before Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy intervention. The core stability functionality result will be correlated with the urinary incontinence 45-50 days after intervention.
