Filter by:The purpose of this study is to learn if the prostatic artery embolization procedure can reduce urinary tract symptoms in patients with enlarged prostates and prostate cancer.
This study aims to determine whether Solifenacine used for lower urinary tract symptoms improves sexual function and if so does this improvement differs between premenopausal and postmenopausal women.
The RISE FOR HEALTH study (RISE) is an initiative of the Prevention of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (PLUS) Research Consortium, which was formed by the NIDDK in 2015 to develop the science to improve bladder health in women and girls. RISE is designed to identify risk and protective factors for bladder health and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and to estimate the distributions of bladder health and bladder health knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs in women of all ages across the life course. This will be accomplished by conducting a population-based prospective cohort study. A sample of individuals who live within the study base, i.e., the county containing each PLUS clinical research center and each adjacent county, will be invited to complete two baseline surveys and then two follow-up surveys one year later. A subset of participants will be invited to attend an in-person evaluation to collect additional clinical information and biologic specimens.
Research question: Does offering an online self-management program lead to more efficient use of care by men with urinary complaints? Hypothesis: Many men with urinary symptoms receive medication from their GP. Advice on how to self-manage complaints is often skipped. This while self-management is effective. By offering self-management instead of visiting a GP the use of care by men with urinary complaints may decrease and treatment may become more efficient. Study design: Men are randomized to receive either care-as-usual by their GP or the online self-management program. Men will be followed for six months and the cost-effectiveness of the online self-management intervention will be compared to the care-as-usual
A prospective, multicenter, blind randomized (2:1) controlled study comparing the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) of the Active arm to the IPSS of the control arm at the 3 months follow-up and active arm IPSS score change from time zero to 12 months. Patients in the active arm undergo Butterfly device treatment. Patients in the control arm undergo a sham rigid cystoscopy procedure
This study aimed to examine trunk and lower extremity biomechanics among children with lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD). It was targeted to pioneer including biomechanical changes into treatment if detected in the trunk and lower extremities of children. Voluntary participants meeting inclusion criteria were divided into two groups: the LUTD group (n=43) and the healthy group (n=43). No treatment was applied to participants and the same evaluation methods were used in both groups. Trunk muscle strength, muscle endurance, posture, flexibility, and pelvic floor muscle activity of participants was evaluated with stabilizer pressurized biofeedback unit, sit-ups and modified push-ups test; trunk flexors endurance test and Modified Biering Sorensen Test; Posture Screen Mobile And Foot Posture Index; sit-reach-test and Beighton Score; and NeuroTrac-Myoplus4Pro, respectively. In addition, the quality of life of participants was evaluated with Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL).
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common condition in aging men that is frequently associated with troublesome lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) which can be divided into storage phase symptoms (urinary frequency, urinary urgency, increased nocturia, urinary incontinence, etc.), voiding phase symptoms (interruption of urination, thinning of the urine line, straining to urinate, etc.), and post-void symptoms (incomplete sensation of urination, dribbling after urination, etc.).BPH is prevalent in as many as 40% of men in their fifties and 90% of men in their eighties.Yet, few effective therapiesare available for treating BPH/LUTS. Acupuncture may be an effective treatment option for BPH/LUTS.However, effects of acupuncture on BPH/LUTS remain uncertain because of the small sample sizes or other methodological limitations. The objective of this randomized,conventional electroacupuncture-controlled trial is to assess the effectiveness of electroacupuncture at'four sacral points'for relieving symptoms of BPH/LUTS. The results will provide a robust conclusion with a highlevel of evidence.
Prospective, randomized, double-blind, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an implantable tibial nerve stimulator in subjects with urgency urinary incontinence (UUI).
A randomized, placebo controlled double-blind, 12-week treatment trial in men with moderate to severe symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia. The trail is about to examine the effect of Brizo® on reduction of BPH related symptoms.
A study to evaluate the safety, performance, and effectiveness of the ProVee Urethral Expander System (Investigational Device) when used in subjects with symptomatic urinary obstruction related to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
