Filter by:Patients with either overactive bladder (OAB) or urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) with be randomized (like a flip of a coin) to receive 100 units of bladder Botox® at either one injection site or ten injection sites. Efficacy and patient satisfaction will be measured by questionnaires.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare the Emsella Chair therapy to Sham and to determine whether electromagnetic technology is effective in the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB). Currently there are no other studies utilizing the Emsella Chair for the treatment of OAB. Eligible subjects will receive 2 treatments per week for a total of 4 weeks.
This is a prospective, multicenter study that was conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel, closed-loop, continuous-sensing wearable neuromodulation system for Overactive Bladder symptom control. The end points were refined based on FDA feedback and the data was analyzed post-hoc based on these endpoints, combining the group into a single study arm.
Overactive bladder (OAB) syndrome as defined by International Continence Society is a pathological condition characterized by irritative symptoms: urinary urgency, with or without incontinence, urinary frequency and nocturia. The syndrome often seriously compromises the quality of life of the patients. The etiology of the OAB is considered multifactorial. Neural plasticity of bladder afferent pathways is one of the proposed mechanisms of OAB. The detrusor muscle itself has for many years been the target for drug treatment such as antimuscarinics. However, depression of detrusor contractility, may results in a reduced ability to empty the bladder and lead to some sympathetic adverse effects, which limits the treatment of OAB. Currently the focus of OAB treatment has changed to other bladder structures/mechanisms, such as afferent nerves and urothelial signaling as targets for intervention. C-fiber bladder afferents nerves may be critical for symptom generation in pathologic states such as OAB because these fibers demonstrate remarkable plasticity. Up-regulation of bladder C-fiber afferent nerve function may also play a role in urge incontinence, overactive bladder (OAB) and sensory urgency. The mechanism of Gabapentin's action for neuropathic pain has not been fully elucidated but is appears to have inhibitory activity on afferent C-fibers nerve activity; moreover, several studies had established the safety of Gabapentin in its treatment of different conditions. Due to the proposed mechanism, the investigators suggest that Gabapentin may be a new alternative for treating OAB.
The primary objective of the double-blind phase of the study is to compare the effects of two doses of oxybutynin gel to placebo gel. The objective of the open-label extension is to evaluate the extended safety and skin-irritation profile of topically administered oxybutynin gel. The hypothesis is that topically administered oxybutynin gel will decrease (compared to placebo) the number of incontinence episodes per week, average daily urinary frequency, and urinary urgency; increase average urinary void volume; and improve patient quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that solifenacin post-operatively improves irritative symptoms in men whose obstructive symptoms have been relieved with the GreenLight laser outpatient procedure.
