Filter by:In this study, the investigators will evaluate the efficacy of Bladder Thermal Distention (BTD) in patients with overactive bladder syndrome who failed previous treatment of anticholinergic drugs. The investigators' hypothesis is that it will improve the storage symptoms.
This study is a multi-site, randomized, opened and parallel-controlled clinical study. The patients up to the inclusion criteria are randomly treated with Solifenacin Succinate Tablets (5mg/d) or Solifenacin Succinate Tablets (5mg/d) + local estrogen for 12 weeks. Before the dosing and at Week 4, 8 and 12 of the dosing, various examinations are made, and various indices are evaluated.
To investigate if oxybutynin ER adding on antimuscarinics is more effective than mono-antimuscarinic treatment for patients with refractory OAB
The purpose of this study is to provide profound insight into the supraspinal neuronal mechanisms and networks responsible for lower urinary tract (LUT) control and to verify, amend or adjust neuronal circuitry models established from findings in healthy subjects in the context of neurogenic and non-neurogenic LUT dysfunction.
A study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BOTOX® or Solifenacin in patients with overactive bladder (OAB) and urinary incontinence.
The null hypothesis for this study is that the combination of solifenacin and Percutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation (PTNS) is not different from PTNS alone. However the investigators anticipate a 20% improvement in patients receiving combination therapy as measured by the OAB-q (Overactive Bladder questionnaire) scores.
Overactive bladder is a syndrome of symptoms. The core symptom is urgency with/without urge incontinence, frequency, nocturia. The prevalence of overactive bladder increased with age. The elderly is increasing with time, so the people who suffering from overactive bladder is also increasing. Research related to overactive bladder in the field of physical therapy is remained needed. The purposes of this study are to investigate the application of physical therapy to women with overactive bladder, emphasizing on the effect of voluntary muscle contraction for urgency inhibition, including the urodynamic study and clinical study. There are three stages in this study. In the first stage, we are going to develop a specific health-related quality of life questionnaire for urinary incontinence in Taiwan version. One hundred and fifty women with urinary incontinence and fifty healthy women without lower urinary tract symptom will be recruited in the first year to investigate the reliability and validity of the questionnaire. The Short-Form 36, Chinese version, will be used as gold standard for validity. Fifty women with urgency will be recruited in the second stage to test the effect of muscle active contraction strategies to inhibit detrusor pressure and urgency. The three muscle active contraction strategies include pelvic floor muscle strong contraction, pelvic floor muscle tonic contraction, and transversus abdominis tonic contraction. The outcome variables including detrusor pressure of the urodynamic parameter and self-reported urgency score. Simultaneous image record by abdominal ultrasound during the urodynamic examination will be used to ensure the accuracy of muscle action. The predictors of success of strategy from the result of the second year will be used to stratify the patients in the third stage. Eighty women with urgency will be recruited in the final stage to examine the clinical effect of strategy for urgency inhibition.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate superiority of the solifenacin succinate (treatment) over the placebo (control) based on the change from the baseline in the mean number of urgency episodes per 24 hours after 2 weeks.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of mirabegron as add-on therapy in patients with OAB treated with solifenacin.
The goal of this study is to compare protein markers in the urine of patients with and without overactive bladder (OAB) and InterStim®.
