Filter by:Pelvic Floor Muscle Training (PFMT) is the basis of conservative treatment in women with SUI. In systematic reviews, PFMT was recommended as a first option for treatment of SUI. The aim of PFMT is to improve sphincter activity and increase the support of bladder and urethra. Recommendations regarding the prevention and treatment of SUI with PFMT include Knack maneuver (the conscious contraction of the pelvic floor before and during the abdominal pressure increases); pelvic floor exercises to enhance the structural support and endurance of pelvic floor muscles; adding transversus abdominis contraction; and functional rehabilitation.It was reported that the progressive overload principle should be considered to improve the muscle strength and endurance. According to this principal, resistance against to movement, duration and/or frequency should be increased to obtain the optimal response. There are a lot of methods to run a muscle or muscle group based on the progressive overload principal. These are adding resistance or weight, increasing the duration and number of contraction, changing the type of exercise and the range of movement. In the literature, it was reported that special vaginal or rectal tools, vaginal cones or tampons might be used to establish resistance during the pelvic floor muscle exercises.the use of cones in a different way may provide extra benefit for patients: patients can be instructed to perform pelvic floor muscle contraction and try to pull the cone or the other tools out of the vagina. In this study, investigators preferred to use vaginal tampons since pulling the cone out of the vagina cause the elimination of the weight of the cone. Vaginal tampons are also sterile, hygienic, and single use. There is no study investigates the effects of vaginal tampon exercises in the literature. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the vaginal tampon training adding to PFMT on symptoms of the urinary incontinence, the strength and the endurance of pelvic floor muscles and the quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TAS-303 in female patients with stress urinary incontinence.
This is a prospective, non-randomized, observational, single center study in which subjects that have surgically-correctable Stress Urinary Incontinence undergo a suburethral sling operative procedure.
This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized comparative study in which patients are randomized to one of four different bladder volumes and a Cough Stress Test (CST) is performed in both the standing and sitting positions. The goal is to assess the agreement of each CST method with both urodynamics diagnosis of Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) and the 24-hour pad test. The primary outcome is to determine what CST method best correlated with either test in the diagnosis of SUI.
This double-blind randomized controlled trial seeks to find a better treatment for women with mixed urinary incontinence (both stress and urgency incontinence). The primary aim is to determine whether midurethral sling surgery combined with injections of onabotulinumtoxinA (Botox®) into the detrusor muscle of the bladder improves symptoms of mixed urinary incontinence better than sling surgery alone.
Concurrent treatment of endometrial cancer and SUI may improve QOL, emotional and physical health and decrease costs for both patients and the health care system. At the time of endometrial cancer diagnosis, not only are women evaluated by a gynecologist and/or a gynecologic oncologist, but the majority will undergo surgery within weeks of their diagnosis. Thus, urinary incontinence could easily be identified, a referral made, and concurrent surgery performed. This would spare the patient two surgeries, decrease the emotional distress associated with SUI symptoms, decrease the costs associated with SUI for the patient and possibly improve overall quality of life. The proposed study will compare the quality of life and clinical outcomes among women with endometrial cancer and SUI that have concurrent surgery to women that do not have concurrent surgery. The findings of our proposed research will provide valuable information necessary for woman and clinicians to make decisions regarding the treatment of SUI, including evidence regarding the risks and benefits of performing concurrent endometrial cancer and SUI surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether GTx-024 is safe and effective in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence in postmenopausal women.
This study will assess the effectiveness of a new pelvic floor exercise device in strengthening pelvic floor muscles and treating urinary incontinence among women who are experiencing symptoms of pelvic floor weakness. The study will be conducted over 12 weeks and results will be collected through self-assessment questionnaires and clinical pelvic examination. Effectiveness outcomes will be tracked over the duration of the trial and measured against historical symptoms.
The ability to determine the postmenopausal vaginal environment and the impact of pessary use could help to maximize pessary therapy and non-surgical treatment for such a prevalent problem.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate pharmacological effect, safety and pharmacokinetic of TAS-303 in female patients with Stress Urinary Incontinence.
