Filter by:A randomized, superiority, controlled, interventional, prospective, multicentre, post-market study of TAI with Navina™ Smart versus Standard Bowel Care performed in a population of 92 subjects suffering from Multiple Sclerosis and confirmed Neurogenic Bowel Dysfunction. The study is expected to last for a total of 8 weeks per subject with two scheduled site visits.
The purpose of this study is to assess the cost-effectiveness and improvement in quality of life of using a novel anal insert (myMiracle)
Our objective here is to improve the patient's compliance and accurate capture of patient reported bowel and abdominal symptoms, by utilizing a phone application that interactively records each bowel movement or leakage event and other bowel symptoms. Such an electronic stool diary may relieve the burden of using a paper daily stool diary. We will compare and validate the electronic stool diary with the paper stool diary.
Patients with sphincter saving procedures of rectal cancer usually experience intestinal dysfunction, including difficulty emptying the bowel and faecal incontinence, leading to a detriment in the quality of life. A prospective study is proposed to measure de feasibility and the impact of a continuous care programme for the prevention or reduction of intestinal dysfunction disorders. The intervention lies on prehabilitation and rehabilitation with physiotherapy, biofeedback and neuromodulation, is assisted by a telematic information system (APP for the monitoring of education on physiotherapy and surveillance).
This study evaluate the rate of occurrence of fecal incontinence in patients who had surgery for posterior pelvic static disorder versus those with medical management. The aim is also to assess the natural history of constipation symptoms and quality of life in patients with posterior pelvic static disorder.
Develop a registry (list of patients) with accurate clinical motility diagnosis. This registry will help the doctors to identify the patients with specific disease conditions. It will also help in promoting future research in gastroenterology motility disorders
Literature is contradictory about the impact of mediolateral episiotomy during operative vaginal delivery in obstetric anal sphincter injuries prevention explaining the absence of international guidelines. The investigators consider that a randomized trials does not appears feasible for both ethical and practical reason and so we suggest a large national observational study. The investigators will include all nulliparous women that underwent an operative vaginal delivery within the 72h following the delivery at more than 34 weeks of amenorrhea. The investigators will collect data about the history of pregnancy, the course of labor, the mode of delivery, maternal immediate and one-year morbidity, neonatal immediate morbidity. The investigators expect a one-year study in 129 recruiting center with 15000 included women. The primary objective is to assess the protective effect of mediolateral episiotomy against obstetric anal sphincter injury during instrumental delivery in nulliparous women according to the type of instrument used. The secondary endpoints are to investigate the effect of mediolateral episiotomy on one-year maternal morbidity, immediate maternal morbidity. The investigators also aim to develop a clinical score to assess the absolute risk of obstetric anal sphincter injury during instrumental delivery. Finally, the investigators will investigate the impact of fetal presentation ultrasound assessment immediately before instrumental delivery on the mode of delivery.
This is an observational study that intends to compare falls or fall-risk related alarms derived from a three-dimensional sensor system with the clinical reality definded by attending nurses.
Overall Aim: To improve the long-term management outcomes for faecal incontinence (FI); through the implementation of new alternative treatment to complement existing treatment options, and enable better utilization of limited healthcare resources. Primary Specific Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) acupuncture in the treatment of faecal incontinence. Secondary Aims: - To evaluate the safety profile of TCM acupuncture. - To explore the patient satisfaction and uptake of TCM acupuncture as an alternative management strategy for FI. - To evaluate improvements in health-related quality of life with TCM-acupuncture. - To explore the cost-effectiveness of TCM acupuncture. Hypothesis: Traditional Chinese Medicine therapy, in the form of acupuncture, is an effective treatment for faecal incontinence.
This study will incorporate critical cross viscero-visceral intersystem interactions to 1) investigate in a controlled laboratory setting and then with mobile at-home monitoring the extent, severity, and frequency of occurrence of autonomic dysreflexia with respect to daily bladder and bowel function, in conjunction with identifying potential underlying mechanisms by examining urinary biomarkers for several specific vasoactive hormones, and 2) to regulate cardiovascular function therapeutically as part of bladder and bowel management using spinal cord epidural stimulation.
