Filter by:Clinical Trial to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Solifenacin/Tamsulosin Combination Therapy with Tamsulosin Monotherapy for Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms due to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
This is a investigator-initiated evaluation of the safety and efficacy of treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) by prostatic artery embolization.
The efficacy and safety of the combination of tamsulosin and tadalafil in men with lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia and Erectile Dysfunction: a randomized, double blinded, parallel design, active controlled, multi-center, phase 3 clinical trial
Pelvic organ prolapse occurs when the uterus or vaginal walls bulge into or beyond the vaginal introitus. Abdominal sacrocolpopexy is the most durable operation for advanced pelvic organ prolapse and serves as the criterion standard against which other operations are compared. Abdominal sacrocolpopexy involves attaching the vaginal apex to the sacral anterior longitudinal ligament reinforced with a graft, usually synthetic mesh. More than 225.000 surgeries are performed annually in the United States for pelvic organ prolapse. Abdominal sacrocolpopexy is considered the most durable pelvic organ prolapse surgery, but little is known about safety and long-term effectiveness. Purpose of this study is to compare effect of tunneling or non-tunneling mesh placement on lower urinary tract symptoms and bowel symptoms in patients who underwent surgery with laparoscopic or robot-assisted sacrocolpopexy which is accepted surgical procedures for pelvic organ prolapse.
This is a study protocol for the UK ROPE Register for Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS). This register enables us to collect data on the treatment of LUTS using prostate artery embolisation (PAE), and other surgical methods to answer the following questions posed by NICE in 2013: - Is PAE a safe and effective treatment option for LUTS caused by prostate enlargement? - How does PAE compare with conventional surgical treatments? This will primarily be a surgical procedure called TURP (see below). - Which patients would most benefit from PAE over the other treatment options? This is a pilot study, and the final register will contain data from roughly 100 patients for PAE and 100 patients for the other surgical interventions, allowing us to answer NICE's research questions, update NICE guidance documentation, and do further research with more patients if necessary. Our hypothesis is: • PAE produces significant improvements in the IPSS score 12 months post-procedure
To evaluate the effect of controlling lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) with anticholinergics on improving the ability to awaken (AA) in children with nonmonosymptomatic enuresis and evaluate the potential implication of improved AA for treatment response prediction.
Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled clinical trial to study the efficacy and the safety of NDS-446 (500 mg/cap) in Men 45 years of age or older with moderate to severe lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS)
The goal of this study is to test the usability of updated biofeedback game software developed to help train the muscles involved in lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) through electromyography (EMG) controlled video games. A Windows-DOS based biofeedback game system is currently used at the investigator's institution to help treat LUTD in pediatric patients. This system, however, is outdated and needs to be replaced with updated hardware and software. A new updated system was recently created by University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW) Biomedical Engineering students. This system utilizes a FDA approved EMG device (SRS Medical Aware™ EMG Dual Muscle Monitor) paired with biofeedback game software that was developed by the students. The investigators wish to test the usability of the new software to identify areas that need improvement to make the software more user-friendly. This study will evaluate the end users' (i.e., physician, biofeedback nurses, patients) perception of the updated software. In determining usability, we hope to 1) decrease risk of end user error; 2) make the software intuitive (easier to use); 3) decrease reliance on the user manual; 4) decrease need for training; and 5) increase understanding of software operation. This will be an ongoing study in which we continuously monitor the usability of the software as it is updated based on end-user feedback. The investigators plan to do all usability testing under the same IRB protocol. If further testing involves items not discussed here, a "new change" will be made to the IRB application.
The purpose of the study was to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of mirabegron versus placebo in men with overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms while taking tamsulosin hydrochloride for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH).
As a collaborative effort between MedStar National Rehabilitation Hospital (NRH), Children's National Medical Center (CNMC) Department of Urology, Children's Research Institute (CRI) Center for Genetic Medicine Research, Georgetown University, and MedStar Georgetown University Hospital, the overall objective of this study is to develop, validate, and assess a patient-initiated, probiotic-based, selfmanagement protocol that is initiated at the time of urinary symptoms. The self-management protocol will allow patients to manage urinary symptoms and avoid potentially unnecessary antibiotic use, and provide a readily-available means of maintaining health, function, and independence throughout the lifespan.
