Filter by:Surgical outcomes of bladder neck surgery in children with neurogenic bladder. Consequences on bladder voiding.
Retrospective monocentric study of the outcomes of patients with neurogenic bladder, who had a urinary artificial sphincter before the age of 18 years old. Hypothesis: what was the impact of the urinary artificial sphincter on the global management of the patient.
The goal of this observational study is to describe the complications in participants who underwent enterocystoplasty in childhood. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - what kind of complications are there - the kind of complications depending on the type of enterocystoplasty Participants data will be collected in the medical field. There is no comparison group.
Lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) is a very common complication of urological, gynecological, neurological, metabolic, inflammatory or tumor disease. LUTD is not an inevitable condition, the investigators can help in many ways. Modern clinical examinations like urodynamics allow for patient tailored treatment strategies. Urodynamics however, even if minimal invasive, may lead to urinary tract infections and are very expensive4. Aim of this study is to evaluate in the long-term perspective what patients profit of urodynamic examinations and in what patients the investigators could resign to perform urodynamics in the future and or in what patients the interval of urodynamics could be extended. Main objective is to follow in a long-term prospective cohort study, patients suffering of lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD). In this observational study the investigators will include all patient undergoing clinical routine urodynamic examination to better address what is the normal course of LUTD with and without Treatment. The aim is to have a prospective urodynamics database allowing to answer questions related to urodynamics.
Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) develop neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO), resulting in urinary incontinence, decreased bladder capacity, and reduced quality of life. Current treatments incompletely address the problem and have unwanted side effects. Therefore, an alternative approach is needed. Electrical stimulation of the genital nerves (GNS) can inhibit NDO, improving bladder capacity and urinary continence. However, an automated closed-loop bladder feedback system, which currently does not exist, is necessary for individuals with SCI and NDO to utilize this therapy. The researchers have developed a custom algorithm to detect bladder contractions in real time, which requires only a bladder pressure signal. Our collaborators have developed a wireless, catheter-free bladder pressure sensor, called the UroMonitor, that was recently approved for testing in human participants. The goal of this project is to evaluate the potential feasibility and effectiveness of automated closed-loop GNS to inhibit unwanted bladder contractions using our custom algorithm and the wireless UroMonitor sensor. This project represents the next logical step toward improving or restoring bladder control using existing or emerging approaches to meet an important need for individuals with SCI. Successful completion of this project will motivate advancing a closed-loop approach using our custom algorithm and wireless bladder pressure sensor.
A case report of a patient with intellectual disability and neurogenic bladder complicated with sepsis
The goal of this clinical trial research study is to evaluate the impact of preoperative oral immunonutrition (IN) on post-operative complications in patients undergoing a cystectomy. As a secondary focus, this study will aim to develop a signature that would identify patients that would benefit the most from IN. This is a multicentric (Swiss: N=3), prospective, controlled, pragmatic, parallel-group comparative study with block randomization stratified by centers.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of sacral neuromodulation in neurogenic patients compared to non-neurogenic (idiopathic) patients. [. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - determine efficacy and safety of the therapy in neurogenic patients. - compare outcomes of the therapy to idiopathic patients. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare the outcomes of the therapy between the neurogenic and non-neurogenic subset of patients.
As part of the ongoing Clinical Evaluation and Post Market Clinical Follow Up (PMCF) activities it was determined that a pilot study should be conducted to look at how real life data such as various physiological measurements can be collected via a Smart-Watch during intermittent self-catheterisation whilst also collecting real life feedback from users on comfort as measured by levels of possible discomfort and on levels of anxiety which may be associated with intermittent catheterisation over a period of time. Adherence to catheter regimen and proper emptying of the bladder is of clinical relevance for clean intermittent catheterisation. A Daily Fluid Diary is included in this pilot study together with the use of the microphone of the Apple™ Smart Watch to investigate the feasibility of tracking input and output of fluids. The user acceptance of the Daily Fluid Diary offered via the iPhone app and the feasibility of the microphone to capture bladder emptying or voiding are to be tested within this pilot.
Building on recent improvements, state-of-the-art functional MRI will be applied as an advanced diagnostic tool for the lumbosacral cord in spinal cord injury (SCI) patients to characterize the remaining neuronal activity of the motor and sensory neurons. Alterations in the activity pattern will reveal the effect upon task-related spinal cord activity of the lower motor neurons and sensory neurons undergoing trauma-induced neurodegeneration, at a spatial specificity that has not been possible so far. Results of this study will be of crucial importance because SCI patients can only profit from regeneration-inducing therapies if spinal neuronal function is preserved below the level of lesion.
