NCT ID: NCT05702294 Recruiting - Healthy Clinical Trials

Electronic Urinary Flowmeter to Improve Accuracy of Bladder Diaries .

e-BLaDR
Start date: September 14, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to give an answer to the question of whether an automated calculation of voided volumes would produce a more accurate set of bladder diary data when compared to the traditional ''eye-balling'' method of estimated voided volumes of paper bladder diaries, in female adult patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Does an automated measurement of voided volumes improve the accuracy of bladder diary data? - Does an automated measurement of voided volumes improve the utility of bladder diaries? Participants will be asked to: - void in the disposable measuring jug and record their estimated voided volume for a total of three consecutive days in a paper diary (as per usual care). - transfer their voided volume from the disposable jug to the automated vessel (diary pod) after each void for the same three consecutive days. The reports generated from the paper diaries (estimated volumes) will be compared to the reports generated from the electronic automated measurement of voided volumes to understand whether there is a clinically significant difference between the two. The investigators aim to recruit healthy female adult volunteers with no lower urinary tract symptoms to understand the normal voiding patterns and volumes of adult females using the diary pod. The investigators will also recruit adult females with lower urinary tract symptoms and compare the two methods of capturing the voided volume

NCT ID: NCT05686525 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms

Clinical Trial on the Effectiveness of TUMT Compared to PAE in Reducing Severe LUTS in Men With BPH

NCT ID: NCT05666063 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Urinary Incontinence

Comparison of Single Voiding Cycle and Two and Three Voiding Cycles in Ambulatory Urodynamic Studies

Start date: February 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Urodynamic studies are objective diagnostic methods recommended and used in the evaluation and diagnosis of urinary incontinence, which is a very common problem that can significantly affect women's health and quality of life, cause social and economic losses. With these examinations, objective observation of bladder functions, repetition and classification of patients' symptoms, and identification of the underlying pathological cause, if possible, are provided in the evaluation of lower urinary system dysfunctions; In this way, the diagnosis is made, the choice of treatment is affected, the results of the treatment can be predicted and appropriate counseling can be given to the patients. Although conventional urodynamics is currently accepted as the gold standard test in the investigation of lower urinary tract symptoms, non-physiological retrograde bladder filling may adversely affect the test results and patients have to be under observation on the examination table while being examined with the conventional urodynamic method. Conventional method may not be effective enough in revealing the etiopathogenesis of lower urinary system symptoms, because they cannot perform activities where lower urinary system symptoms occur. Although many studies have shown that the diagnostic value of ambulatory urodynamics (AU) is higher in urogynecology clinical practice, it was not found suitable for routine investigation due to its longer duration, time-consuming and cost-effectiveness. For this reason, its routine use has been limited in international guidelines for AU in cases where conventional urodynamics is insufficient in the diagnosis, by indicating its application. In the AU method, all physiopathological changes in the lower urinary system can be observed synchronously, since the bladder filling is orthograde, not retrograde, that is, the lower urinary system is examined while the physiological urine is filled, not liquid, and the patients can perform the activities they want, and the symptoms that occur during these activities can be recorded by the patient. Despite the advantages of performing it under these conditions, it takes a long time to be evaluated with 2-4 voiding cycles and is used as a second step in cases that cannot be diagnosed by conventional urodynamics. In the previous studies performed by us, it was seen that the results of the ambulatory urodynamic examination performed with a single voiding cycle were similar to the studies in the literature using multiple voiding cycles. However, at the moment, there is no study in the literature that determines the optimal duration of this test. For these reasons, this study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the test at the end of a single voiding cycle with that at the end of multiple (2 to 4) voiding cycles.

NCT ID: NCT05604222 Recruiting - Nocturia Clinical Trials

Effect of Behavioral Sleep Intervention on Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms in Older Women

SLAB
Start date: March 5, 2023
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) is common in older people and vastly reduces quality of life, yet the cause and mechanism of disease are not well understood. This study will investigate the role of adding behavioral sleep intervention to the standard pharmacotherapy in treatment of UUI among older adults, and the brain mechanisms involved in continence by evaluating brain changes. This will expand the current knowledge of how the sleep affects bladder control, and better characterize the brain mechanisms in maintaining continence.

NCT ID: NCT05598710 Completed - Clinical trials for Ureteral Stent-Related Symptom

Ureteral Stent Related Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms- A Comparative Study

Start date: September 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Pigtails are inserted to relieve of pelviureteral system independent of the underlying cause. Pain, Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS), hematuria and fever can be some of the early complications after their insertion..More than 80% of the patients mention significant amount of pain limiting their daily activities while 78% mentions LUTS. The local irritation from the pigtail in the kidney and the ureterovesical junction, the urine reflux through the pigtail, length and size of the pigtail are some of the factors that account for the Ureteral Stent Related Symptoms (USRS) .Important role also has the length of remaining pigtail within the bladder as well as the drainage capacity,the lack of elasticity and the migration within the bladder of the pigtail .Aim of this study is to correlate the physical properties of the pigtail (length,size) with the complications after the insertion.

NCT ID: NCT05587101 Recruiting - Multiple Sclerosis Clinical Trials

Neurogenic Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis

Start date: October 19, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

There is no consensus in the literature upon the neurourological diagnostic algorithm of the patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). The primary aim of the study is phenotyping the patients with MS. These phenotypes might guide Neurology and Urology specialists during diagnosis and treatment. Secondary aim of this study is to define the presence and severity of urological symptoms' and disorders', involving the patients with diagnosis of MS less than 5 years into a urological follow-up and treatment process. Our study might include 4 visits (the first visit, 3rd month, 6th month and 12th month visit). Questionnaires, uroflowmetry and bladder diary might be repeated on each visit. Filling cystometry and pressure-flow study will be performed only on the first visit. All patients will receive 6 different questionnaires which aim to define the severity and presence of lower urinary tract symptoms. Bladder diary is an online application which will represent at least 3 days of frequency, urgency, incontinence episodes and the amount of fluid intake, and urination. The phenotypes would be defined after performing the first visit diagnostic tools (all of the tools are necessary during the diagnostic algorithm of neurogenic lower urinary tract symptoms). The phenotypes will be defined as: a. no symptoms with normal urodynamics, b. Lower urinary tract symptoms with normal urodynamics, c. no symptoms with abnormal urodynamics, d.lower urinary tract symptoms with abnormal urodynamics. During a follow-up period of 1 year, changes in the bladder diaries and scores in questionnaires of these groups will be compared on each visit.
