View clinical trials related to Overactive Bladder.
Filter by:Overactive bladder (OAB) is a bothered symptom syndrome. Traditional medication for OAB is antimuscarinic agent. However, adverse events such as dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, and dizziness may prohibit patient to take this drug for OAB. Intravesical botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) is a novel treatment however, BoNT-A can cause acute urinary retention and large postvoid residual. In this grant we will evaluate liquid liposome delivery of BoNT-A (Liposome encapsulated BoNT-A) into the bladder without the need for cystoscopic-guided needle injection for refractory OAB.
Urinary incontinence is a prevalent condition that markedly impacts quality of life and disproportionately affects women. Overactive Bladder syndrome (OAB) is defined as symptoms of urgency and frequency with urge urinary incontinence (OAB-wet) and without urge incontinence (OAB-dry). Conservative first line treatments for urge incontinence combined with other OAB symptoms (OAB-wet) include behavioral therapy, pelvic floor training +/- biofeedback, or the use of anticholinergic medications. These treatment modalities may not result in total continence and often drug therapy is discontinued because of lack of efficacy, side effects and cost or because of not wanting to take a pill. Behavioral therapy and pelvic muscle exercises require consistent, active intervention by the patient which is often not sustained. Thus, the objective of the Anticholinergic vs Botox Comparison Study (ABC) is to determine whether a single intra-detrusor injection of botulinum toxin A (Botox A®) is more effective than a standardized regimen of oral anticholinergics in reducing urge urinary incontinence. The null hypothesis is that there is no difference in the change from baseline in average number of urge urinary incontinence episodes over 6 months between groups.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether there is a difference in long-term outcome between patients screened with the percutaneous nerve evaluation (PNE) and first stage tined lead procedure (TLP).
E: The pharmacological effect of Bryophyllum pinnatum could be shown on uterine smooth muscle cells, on spontaneous and oxytocin-stimulated contractions. Smooth muscle relaxation is not only required for preventing premature labour but also for symptom's relief of overactive bladder (OAB). According to previous preclinical and clinical studies, an inhibiting effect of Bryophyllum on OAB is assumed. 20 women are included in this phase 2 drug study, treated with Bryophyllum pinnatum in form of the commercially available Bryophyllum tablets into capsules (verum: 3x2capsules/day) or lactose capsules (placebo: 3x2 capsules/day), 10 women in each group. Duration of the drug administration is 8 weeks. Primary endpoint is the reduction of micturitions per 24 hours (measured by filling in a voiding dairy), secondary endpoints are the improvement of quality of life (measured by using the King's Health Questionnaire and the ICIQ-OAB, two questionnaires, validated for the german language, for women with incontinence), increase of the micturition volumes and reduction of urge episodes (measured by the patients and recorded in a voiding dairy) and the registration of adverse events during the study phase. Ethics committee approval has been given 10th March 2010. - Trial with medicinal product
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the non-invasive neurostimulation patch is effective in the treatment of urgency, frequency and urge (urinary) incontinence.
This study is to evaluate change of overactive bladder symptom scores (OABSS) between, before and after solifenacin treatment to OAB subjects.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate its reproducibility of overactive bladder symptom score (OABSS) and to evaluate its correlation to other measures of OAB symptoms.
The purpose is to see if solifenacin has any effect on bladder wall thickness and urine inflammatory marker measurements after 12 weeks of treatment.
This study will investigate the safety and efficacy of Sanctura XR (trospium chloride) daily in reducing urgency, urinary frequency and urinary urge incontinence in female patients with incontinence refractory to Detrol LA (tolterodine tartrate extended release) 4 mg therapy.
This study is a retrospective chart review including all patients who received surgical placement of a SNM device with Dr. Noblett from 2001 to the present.
