Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if prophylactic antibiotics in urethral bulking are effective in reducing postprocedural urinary tract infections.
The study drug VMB-100 is an mRNA encoding for IGF-1. It is administered by injection into the urethra sphincter, and taken up by the muscle cells. The IGF-1 acts to promote muscle regeneration in the sphincter, which is expected to improve the function of the sphincter and thereby alleviate incontinence (urinary leakage).
Urinary incontinence, characterized by involuntary loss of urine (International Continence Society), is a serious social and health issue whose incidence is increasing. Urinary incontinence refers to a condition in which urine is inadvertently excreted from the bladder to the urethra, usually due to a disability or an incapacity to control the bladder and urethral sphincter. Urinary incontinence is a common complaint in women, which can have an important influence on the quality of her life. Its prevalence is between 10% and 40%, and the most common form is stress urinary incontinence. Age, body mass index, genetic factors, pregnancy and delivery, and a history of hysterectomy, smoking, race, constipation and menopause have been considered as its risk factors.
Tele-rehabilitation involves health care services, support and information provided remotely via digital communication and devices. It intends to facilitate effective delivery of health services such as physical therapy by improving access to care and information and managing health care resources. Other terms such as telehealth, telemonitoring, tele-rehabilitation, tele-education and tele-assistance describe digital practice. Due to the pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), health associations worldwide have released recommendations about care from distance using tools of communication and information technologies
To compare the impact of selected physical activities on pelvic floor and stress urinary incontinence in sportwoman.
Storage urinary symptoms are the most complained of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and need further classification. This original study aims to derive a novel classification algorism for female storage LUTS according to a 3-day bladder diary (BD). Further feasibility of the application was also evaluated.
Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) is a surgical procedure used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). HoLEP involves the removal of obstructive prostatic tissue via an endoscopic approach to relieve bothersome urinary symptoms. HoLEP is recommended by the American Urological Association (AUA) as a size-independent treatment for BPH. While the surgery is highly durable and versatile, post-operative stress urinary incontinence (SUI) has been reported following HoLEP, up to 44%. Pelvic floor physical therapy (PFPT) is a therapeutic strategy with low cost and risk to patients used to treat SUI following prostate surgery. However, data on the efficacy of conducting PFPT prior to HoLEP in minimizing or eliminating post-operative urinary incontinence is limited. The investigators will recruit patients who have already agreed to undergo HoLEP for this study. Participants will be randomized into two groups: The intervention group will begin standardized PFPT before surgery and will continue PFPT after surgery, and the second group will begin PFPT after surgery only (current practice). Both groups will continue with PFPT following surgery until urinary continence is regained. Investigators will compare the time required to regain urinary continence and patient-reported outcomes between the two groups.
Urinary incontinence is a very common health problem that reduces the quality of life mostly in women. Behavioral therapy (lifestyle changes, abdominal-Kegel exercises) is recommended as the first choice in the treatment of the disease. It is known that surgical and medical treatment cannot give a definite result. The application of behavioral therapy with telemedicine has advantages such as reducing the cost and increasing the treatment rate. In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the effect of telemedicine practices on compliance with multi-module behavioral therapy in women with stress urinary incontinence.
Background: Men who are treated for prostate cancer often develop urinary leakage (incontinence). An experimental device that uses electrical impulses to stimulate pelvic floor muscles and surrounding tissues may help. Objective: To see if the Elidah device can reduce urinary incontinence after prostate treatment. Eligibility: Men aged 18 years and older who have had moderate urinary incontinence for at least 6 months after treatment for prostate cancer. Design: Participants will be in the study for about 9 weeks. They will be screened. They will have a physical exam with urine tests. The Elidah device consists of a Controller and a GelPad. The Controller sets the strength of electrical impulses. The GelPad is placed against the skin under the pelvis. Participants will be given an Elidah device and taught how to use it at home. They will use the device once a day for 20 minutes at a time; they will do this 5 days a week for 6 weeks. Participants will complete a daily log. They will record the strength of electrical impulses (0-35); the number of incontinence episodes; the type of incontinence episode; and the number of used pads. Participants will do a pad weight test. For 3 days before and 3 days after using the Elidah device, they will collect all of their used pads for each 24-hour period into a sealed plastic bag. They will also collect a second set of bags that contain dry versions of each product used. Participants will have clinic visits after using the device for 3 weeks and after finishing the 6 weeks of treatment. Participants will complete 15-minute questionnaires.
Stress urinary incontinence, or involuntary urine leakage during activities like coughing, laughing, or exercise, is a common condition that impacts quality of life for many women. Pelvic floor muscle training is often used to treat stress incontinence, but additional therapies may enhance outcomes. This randomized controlled trial will compare two physical therapy modalities, pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy versus laser acupuncture, along with pelvic floor training for improving stress urinary incontinence in 60 adult women. The study will evaluate their effects on pelvic floor muscle strength, severity of urine leakage, and quality of life. We hypothesize that PEMF and laser acupuncture will both improve stress incontinence, but PEMF will be more effective based on greater pelvic floor stimulation. The study aims to provide evidence on these physical therapy options so that optimized treatment plans can be developed for women with stress urinary incontinence.
