Filter by:The aim of this study is to investigate the visceral fat reduction versus total body fat reduction on stress urinary incontinence in obese females.
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and urinary incontinence (UI) are common female disorders. Accurate diagnosis of the aetiology of pelvic organ descent and prolapse with or without accompanying urination disorders is essential for appropriate therapeutic management. Imaging and functional urodynamic testing are being increasingly used in the diagnosis of this pathology, because precise assessment of the damage to the supporting and ligament apparatus is essential for therapeutic success. Pelvic floor ultrasound can facilitate dynamic assessment of static changes that occur during functional tests. Such assessments can provide additional insights into existing defects, which have explorative value and allow for targeted correction of damage, and may thus indirectly contribute to reduced rates of revision surgeries.
The purpose of this early feasibility prospective study is to gain initial understanding of the effect of acute peri-urethral neurostimulation on the perineal nerves on intra-urethral pressure.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to determine if removal of transurethral urinary catheters by patients at home is as safe as catheter removal in the office following urogynecologic surgery. Participants will be randomized to either standard catheter removal in the office or catheter self-removal at home.
Urinary incontinence (UI) is more common than any other chronic disease. Stress urinary incontinence (SUI), among the various forms of urinary incontinence, is the most prevalent (50%) type of this condition. Female urinary continence is maintained through an integrated function of pelvic floor muscles (PFMs), fascial structures, nerves, supporting ligaments, and the vagina. In women with SUI, the postural activity of the PFMs is delayed, and the balance ability is decreased. Many women, by learning the correct timing of a pelvic floor contraction during a cough, are able to eliminate consequent SUI. Timing is an important function of motor coordination and could be affected by proprioception. We aim to assess stress urinary incontinence in obese and non-obese Nulligravid females.
The goal of this pilot study is to report the safety and efficacy of a suture-suspended mesh-reduced sling for treating stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - investigate the efficacy of this mesh-reduced suture-based surgical technique for improving SUI symptoms - investigate the efficacy of this mesh-reduced suture-based surgical technique on key urethral support defects observed with 3D ultrasound Participants will consent to participate following which they will complete pre-operative assessments according to our routine clinical pathway. The participant will then undergo surgery and will be followed up to 12 months post-operatively via symptom assessment and pelvic exam.
This study aims to investigate the effect of electrical stimulation of the dorsal genital nerve on the urethral pressure in healthy women.
When participants present with symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI), the investigators will perform a comprehensive evaluation and initially provide conservative treatment. If conservative treatment fails, invasive treatment will be considered. The investigators will arrange a pelvic muscle training course two to three times a week for a duration of 1.5 months per course. However, participants may complain about the inconvenience of traffic, which may lead to discontinuation of the pelvic training course. Therefore, the investigators propose the development of a home-based pelvic muscle training device and will collaborate with information engineering specialists at Tamkang University to invent the device for home-based pelvic muscle training.
The goal of this clinical study is to compare the effects of combined electroacupuncture with pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) versus PFMT alone in the treatment of involuntary urine leakage following prostate removal procedure due to prostate cancer. The main question it aims to answer is that whether adding electroacupuncture to PFMT provides extra benefits in relieve urinary leakage and improves patients' quality of life. All participants will be required to perform daily PFMT for 6 weeks using uniformed standards. During the meantime, those assigned to the experimental group will additionally receive electroacupuncture three times per week for 6 weeks, while those in control group will receive sham treatment with same duration. Researchers will compare the urine leakage severity between the two groups to see if adding electroacupuncture can facilitate the recovery of symptom.
Asess if adding vaginal spheres treatment to the conventional Pelvic Floor Muscle Trainning (PFMT) produces a greater decrease in the severity of the stress urinary incontinence or a greater perceived quality of life related to incontinence.
