Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to learn about functional bladder problems in children. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does bladder symptoms in children have an effect on core muscles? - How do core muscles change based on an increase or decrease in these symptoms?
This cross-sectional case-control study aimed to determine whether there is a significant difference in the prevalence of impaired toilet training, LUTS, and functional bowel problems among children diagnosed with DCD and typically developing children (TDC).
Women often face common cancers like ovarian, uterine, and cervical cancers. Improvements in cancer detection and treatment mean more women survive. However, survivors can encounter challenges like ongoing pain, treatment complications, and fertility issues. Treating these cancers often involves surgeries that might include removing ovaries or using pelvic radiation. This can trigger menopause in younger women, causing problems like vaginal dryness, itching, and urinary issues. Women who've gone through menopause often deal with these symptoms, affecting their daily lives, confidence, and intimate relationships. Though treatments are available, lack of awareness, embarrassment, and not discussing these issues with doctors can make managing them difficult. The main treatment for these symptoms is using vaginal estrogen, but it might not be suitable for some cancer survivors. Non-hormonal options like lubricants and moisturizers are alternatives. This study in Thailand aiming to explore how common these issues are among gynecological cancer survivors, their feelings about it, and how it affects their quality of life.
The most common reason for applying to a hospital in the postoperative period is due to the double J stent inserted during operations of the ureteroscopic lithotripsy, which is reflected pain (T11-L2). The posterior approximation QL block (QL-P) extends more quickly to the thoracic paravertebral cavity or thoracolumbar plane, creating analgesia from T 7' to L 1'. The effects of double J catheter in patients are followed by the 'Ureteral Stent Symptom Scoring Survey.' QL-P for postoperative analgesia after URS operations Our primary hypothesis in this prospective, randomized, controlled study is that the symptoms of the sub-urinary system associated with the DJS of the QL-P block will decrease. Our secondary hypotheses in the study are to investigate the effects of the unilateral QL-P block, made under ultrasound guidance, on pain scores after ureteroscopic lithotripsy operations due to unilateral ureteral stones made under spinal anesthesia.
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of pelvic floor muscle exercises during pregnancy on sexual function, lower urinary tract symptoms and birth process. The research was conducted with pregnant women who applied to the Pregnancy Outpatient Clinic of Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa Cerrahpasa Faculty of Medicine Hospital. Power analysis was performed to determine the number of samples to be included in the study. It was determined that 29 pregnant women should be included in each group (experimental and control). Considering the possibility of data loss, 50 pregnant women were included in each group. As a result of the exclusion of 8 women who withdrew from participating in the study, 5 women due to risky pregnancies (bleeding, preeclampsia and gestational diabetes) and 17 women due to cesarean delivery, the data of 35 pregnant women in the experimental group and 35 pregnant women in the control group were obtained. Pregnant women in the experimental group were gestational aged 18-20. Two sessions of training were given on female reproductive and urinary system anatomy, physiological changes during pregnancy and their effects on sexual life, and pelvic floor muscle exercises, using the "Pelvic Floor Health & Sexual Life Training Booklet during Pregnancy" and the pelvic floor muscle exercise training video developed by the researcher between the weeks of pregnancy. Pregnant women were asked to perform pelvic floor muscle exercises, 3 sets a day, 3 days a week, for 12 weeks, starting from the 20th week of pregnancy, and record them in the Pelvic Floor Muscle Exercise Follow-up Form created by the researcher. Pregnant women in the control group were not given any training and were routinely monitored in the outpatient clinic. Pregnant women who apply to the outpatient clinic are examined by nurses, with their vital signs taken and anamnesis taken by the physician. Recommendations are made regarding the complaints of pregnant women. Non-stress tests are routinely applied to pregnant women who are at the 36th week of pregnancy and above.
The aim of this study is to promote healthy bladder behaviors among school children. We hypothesize that a combination of bladder health education and awareness events, additional resources such as a water station to support healthy bladder behaviors, and tailored changes to classroom bathroom policies can promote healthy bladder behaviors among school children.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. It is characterized with demyelinated plaques affecting subcortical, brain stem, and spinal cord nerve fibers. During the course of the disease, with the affection myelinated nerve tracks, lower urinary track symptoms may occur. 50-90% of the MS patients experience lower urinary track symptoms (LUTS) such as urinary incontinence, urgency, nocturia and/or urinary frequency during the at one point of their life. Aim of this study is to determine the effects of transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS) on symptoms and quality of life in MS patients with LUTS.
. The study will include patients who underwent Pelvic reconstructive surgery for advanced pelvic organ prolapse (POP-Q ≥ 3). Data regarding preoperative evaluation, surgical procedure, and post-operative management will be collected. women will receive a follow up questionnaire. . The baseline questionnaire included data on age, urinary incontinence, daytime frequency, nocturia, postmicturition dribble, straining, urgency, incomplete bladder emptying, and hesitancy. Women were asked about leakage caused by coughing or sneezing, moving, lifting, sleeping, sexual intercourse, urgency, and rest.
Lower urinary tract dysfunctions (LUTD) are common in the pediatric population and include symptoms related to functional disorders. LUTD limits children and their parents socially, physically, and financially; leads to secondary comorbidities in the long term and negatively affects quality of life. Therefore, effective treatment of LUTD is important. Treatment options in children with LUTD include standard urotherapy, physiotherapy and rehabilitation practices, pharmacologic approaches, and Botulinum toxin type A injections. Pharmacologic treatment and invasive approaches have high side effect rates and compliance problems; therefore, conservative treatment methods should be completed first. The literature focuses on standard urotherapy, pharmacologic approaches and biofeedback therapy. However, to the best of our knowledge, there is no study in this population that comprehensively addresses the anatomical structures closely related to the pelvic floor with a more holistic perspective beyond the standard patient education and pelvic floor. Therefore, The aim of our study is to demonstrate the additional effects of massage therapy and exercise training for the lumbopelvic area in children with LUTD compared to standard urotherapy and pelvic floor biofeedback therapy in a randomized controlled design.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of aerobic exercise (AE) on bladder functions and urinary system symptoms in women diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and suffered from Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS). In the study, 44 individuals (35-55 age) were divided into two groups: Aerobic Exercise (AE) (n=22) and Control Group (n=22) by simple random method. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is aerobic exercise effective on bladder functions in women diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus and suffered from Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms? - Is aerobic exercise effective on urinary tract symptoms in women diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus and suffered from Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms? - Is aerobic exercise effective on quality of life in women diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus and suffered from Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms? Intervention/treatment - Control group individuals will be given a behavioral treatment program. - Submaximal aerobic exercise training will be given to the AE group in addition to the behavioral treatment program.
