Filter by:The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of ESWT (Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy) and TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) in individuals diagnosed with chronic pelvic pain syndrome and treated with medication. The study was organized as a randomized controlled trial. The sample size is 30 patients suffering from chronic pelvic pain syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to see if a randomized controlled trial of ovarian vein and pelvic vein embolization versus venography alone could determine outcomes for women with chronic pelvic pain and pelvic varicose veins. The data gathered will assist in addressing changes in quality of life in patients who have ovarian/pelvic vein embolization versus no embolization.
Compression therapy is basic treatment for chronic venous disease (CVD) of the lower limbs. Numerous studies have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of compression therapy in relieving symptoms such as pain, venous edema, leg heaviness and fatigue, as well as accelerating the healing of venous ulcers. It has been established that сompression therapy is indicated for patients with both minimally expressed manifestations of CVD and severe forms of the disease. At the same only one study has been conducted to assess the correction of venous outflow from the lower limbs and pelvis in patients with pelvic varicose vein (PVV) and pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS). However, the incidence of this pathology ranges from 15 to 30% in the female population. The cost to the healthcare system of treating these patients in the United States exceeds $2 billion. To date, the options and indications for compression therapy in patients with concomitant PVV and CVD have not been defined. The rational use of compression in this cohort of patients may contribute to the improvement of effective conservative treatment. In addition, inappropriate prescription of compression to patients with pelvic venous disease (which can be observed in real clinical practice) may discredit this simple, effective and safe therapeutic method. In addition, the research devoted to the problem of compression treatment of PVV will contribute to the development of new special compression products aimed at accelerating venous outflow from the pelvic organs. It can be assumed that this will serve as a stimulus for obtaining new data on the therapeutic effects of compression and create conditions for the creation of new technological directions in the production of compression knitwear.
Pelvic pain is under-reported in healthy adults. Many patients with pelvic pain under-estimate the problem. Chronic pelvic pain can be managed properly, if diagnosed promptly. This is a quantitative analysis of prospective clinical data. It evaluates the management of pelvic pain in a cohort population, and analyzes the treatment outcome.
Background: Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) significantly impacts the quality of life in women. This study investigated the effects of transdermal neuromodulation in females with CPP. Trial Design: Parallel, randomized, single-blind, controlled trial The aim of the study will be to examine the effect of posterior tibial nerve stimulation on women with idiopathic chronic pelvic pain syndrome. Methods: Thirty females with chronic pelvic pain will be randomly allocated 1:1 to receive either transdermal neuromodulation of the posterior tibial nerve (intervention group) or advice to control posture (control group) for 4 weeks at the Outpatient Physical Therapy Clinic at Kafrelsheikh University in Egypt. The primary outcome was pain intensity measured by visual analog scale (VAS). Secondary outcomes were serum cortisol level and quality of life (QOL) score. Assessments will be done at baseline and after 4 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to create a research repository, composed of data collected in the course of digital care programs for pelvic health conditions by SWORD Health/Bloom to individuals undergoing those programs. This will allow the investigators to observe the acceptance, engagement and outcomes of programs using this approach in the treatment of multiple pelvic health disorders.
Rape is a common cause of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among women, as around 30-50% will develop PTSD in the aftermath of rape. A modified protocol based on Prolonged Exposure Therapy (mPE), has been developed, consisting of three to five once or twice weekly 60 minutes sessions, and studies indicate that if implemented early after rape, mPE may prevent the development of PTSD. The aim of the study is to conduct a multi-site (4 Sexual assault care centers in Norway) randomized control trial (RCT) in which patients are recruited early after rape, and randomized to intervention (mPE) or treatment as usual (TAU).
Urethral pain syndrome (UPS) is defined by the occurrence of persistent or recurrent episodic urethral pain in the absence of proven infection or other obvious pathology. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of an intraurethral and vaginal laser therapy for the treatment of UPS. The hypothesis is that a significant reduction of urethral pressure pain can be achieved.
This study is adressed to women with primary dysmenorrhea, it´s a gynecological disorder that is defined as colicky pain associated with menstruation and is located in the lower abdomen and in the lumbo-pelvic area. It appears between the first 8-72 hours and four days of the menstrual cycle and affects almost 85% of women, 30% of them severely. This study aims to demonstrate that osteopathic manual therapy is an effective therapeutic option in patients with primary dysmenorrhea. Another objective is to verify that osteopathic manual treatment provides an improvement in the intensity of pain, quality of life and a reduction in the consumption of medicines in these patients.
Adenomyosis is a disease where ectopic endometrial glands affect the muscular wall of the uterus. Women that suffer from dysmenorrhea or infertility caused by adenomyosis need to confirm or rule out adenomyosis, and therefore tools for non-histologic confirmation of adenomyosis are indubitably required. Transvaginal ultrasound has been shown to be useful in diagnosing adenomyosis, but the interpretation of findings requires significant expertise in ultrasound and experience with diagnosing adenomyosis. This is because adenomyosis shows a very heterogeneous appearance in ultrasound. There are many different diagnostic signs that have to be considered and weighed. In a previous study, the investigators have developed a diagnostic algorithm that helps clinicians diagnose adenomyosis with transvaginal ultrasound and a clinical examination. It showed good diagnostic accuracy and seemed to be very robust with regards to artifacts and experience of the examiner. It is now necessary to validate this prediction model in a new, prospective study so it can be used in clinical practice.
