View clinical trials related to Idiopathic Overactive Bladder.
Filter by:Overactive bladder (OAB) syndrome is urinary urgency, usually accompanied by frequency and nocturia, with or without urgency urinary incontinence, in the absence of urinary tract infection. For the treatment of OAB; pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods are available. The availability and the continuation rate of pharmacological treatments are lower than non-pharmacological treatments due to side effects. Non-pharmacologic treatment methods are evaluated in two groups as active and passive methods. Active methods which active participation of the patient is required during treatment are Pelvic floor muscle exercise (PFME), biofeedback assisted PFME, vaginal cones, while passive methods are Electrical Stimulation, extracorporeal Magnetic Stimulation (MStim) and Transcutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation (TTNS) techniques. In this study, investigators aim to evaluate the effectiveness of TTNS and extracorporeal MStim, which are noninvasive methods, added to bladder training (BT) in women with OAB, with a prospective randomized controlled research method.
Monocenter, prospective, randomized, parallel group study (1:1) evaluating the efficacy of self-hypnosis performed by mask on pain and anxiety in patients receiving botulinum toxin injections in the treatment of idiopathic overactive bladder refractory to conventional pharmacological treatment. Patients will be randomized into two groups before injection: - Group 1: conventional anesthesia - Group 2: conventional anesthesia and use of the self-hypnosis mask At the end of the procedure, the patient will express the pain felt thanks to the VAS (Visual Analog Scale) and will answer a questionnaire of anxiety (STATE-TRAIT Anxiety Inventory).
Injection of Botox into the bladder is a common treatment for overactive bladder. Postoperative bladder infection is one of the more frequently reported complications of this procedure. Prophylactic antibiotics given at the time of bladder Botox for the reduction of postoperative bladder infection have not been well studied. The main goal of our study is to determine if prophylactic antibiotics at the time of bladder Botox injection for the treatment of overactive bladder in women reduces postoperative bladder infection. The investigators are proposing a study which will randomize participants into two groups - one receiving Ciprofloxacin and the other receiving placebo pills for three days following the procedure. The primary outcome evaluated will be the difference in postoperative bladder infection between the two groups. The investigators will also investigate differences in reported side effects between the two groups possibly related to antibiotic use. Follow-up will be over six weeks following the procedure.
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a symptom complex defined as urgency, with or without urge urinary incontinence (UUI), usually with frequency and nocturia, in the absence of urinary tract infection. Currently, a wide range of therapeutic options exist for the treatment of OAB. These include first-line conservative (physical) therapies which focus on electrical stimulation (ES) and behavioral therapies such as lifestyle modifications, bladder training (BT), pelvic floor muscle training with or without biofeedback, second-line therapies which are pharmacologic, and third-line therapies which either neuromodulate or chemodenervate the bladder. In clinical practice, BT and Intravaginal ES (IVES) are frequently used together in the treatment of women with OAB, but the evidences/results of the combined (BT+IVES) use of these two treatment options are so rare that they can be neglected in the literature. There is only one study including BT+ES treatment arm (one of the four treatment arms) in women with idiopathic OAB in the literature. In a study, BT+ES was not found to be effective both from BT alone and from the untreated control group. While interpreting the results of this study, it should be take into consideration that patients treated received relatively few treatment sessions (nine treatment sessions, once weekly) in this study. In addition, in the light of authors clinical experience, the investigators think that this issue is still open for research. Moreover, there is no recommendation on conservative combinations in the guidelines due to insufficient data. This study is the first prospective randomized controlled trial that compares the efficacy of BT and BT plus IVES in women with idiopathic OAB. In this study, the investigators aimed to evaluate the efficacy of BT with and without IVES on incontinence-related QoL and clinical parameters in women with idiopathic OAB.
This clinical trial testing three different sites of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation for the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB).
