Filter by:This study examines the effect of adding so called Kaatsu training to pelvic floor muscle training. Half the participants will perform Kaatsu training on their thigh muscles followed by pelvic floor muscle training. The other half will receive pelvic floor muscle training 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 aim of this study is to evaluate if the training of pelvic floor muscles, which associates an individualized treatment progressing to a group treatment, would be more effective than an individualized training only or groups only. Methods: Randomized controlled study which will be done from January to December of 2016, on Laboratory of Women's Health Research, Federal University of São Carlos-SP, Brazil. Inclusion criteria: women with stress UI, older than 18 years old. The sample size calculation was performed using the GPower Software (3.1.5, Germany) and it was estimated a sample of 30 women in each group. The volunteers will be assessed before the intervention by a urinary symptoms evaluation form, King's Health Questionnaire, miccional diary, PERFECT scheme and perineometry. After the evaluation will be performed the randomization of the volunteers by a blinded investigator and the volunteers will be allocated into three groups: Group 1: Individualized Training Group 2: Individualized training with progression to group training Group 3: Group training only For all groups it will be used the same protocol that was prepared according to the recommendations of the American College of Sports Medicine. Later, volunteers will be reassessed after 12 treatments, three months and six months (from the discharge date). It will be added in the reassessment the Self-efficacy Scale for Pelvic Floor Exercises Practice. Primary outcome: severity measures of the King's Health Questionnaire. Secondary outcome: miccional diary, PERFECT scheme, perineometry and Self-efficacy scale for Pelvic Floor Exercises Practice. Data normality will be tested by the Shapiro-Wilk test (SPSS 19.0). The comparison between the evaluations will be performed by ANOVA, and the comparison between groups will be performed by Student t-test (independent measures). In order to measure the practical significance of the data, the effect size and the confidence interval (CI) will be calculated. A 5% significance level will be assumed. This study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Federal University of São Carlos, São Carlos- SP, Brazil (Protocol 1207393).
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.
Pilot study, case series conducted in women with a clinical diagnosis of urinary incontinence and were treated with radiofrequency technique for capacitive transfer non ablative in external urethral meatus. All participants did an hour Pad Test. The participants made five sessions of Radio Frequency (RF) with an interval of seven days between them. The application of RF was performed by physical therapist trained in the technique of radio frequency through the Tonederm® brand device with capacitive transfer method using non-ablative handle with electrode in the region of the external urethral meatro and coupling electrode placed on the participant's back. For application, the participants were in gynecological position. The session had an average duration of 20 minutes. The temperature was measured by an infrared thermometer when it reached 41graus radiofrequency was maintained for 2 minutes.
Urinary stress incontinence ( SUI ) is defined as an involuntary loss of urinary Complaint no effort According to the Consensus of the International Continence Society (Society Continence International - ICS) . SUI Prevalence of adult female Population and 25 % to 30 %.However, despite the high prevalence, many women who have symptoms of SUI or not seek treatment remain without resolution of symptoms.Then there is the possibility of using non-invasive radiofrequency and non-ablation in external urethral meatus in order to stimulate collagen production, as one of the pathophysiological mechanisms of stress urinary incontinence is the collagen deficit in the urethral wall. It is a randomized clinical trial and the group experimental will utilize radiofrequency and kinesiotheraphy ( clinical and in home) and the group control utilize turn off- radiofrequency and kinesiotherapy (clinical and in home). The protocol f the kinesiotherapy is the same both the group, and the protocol radiofrequency the group experimental will 5 sessions (one per week) with temperature 38ºC during 2 minutes. The group control will 5 sessions (one per week) but the radiofrequency will off but glycerin is heated, for masking for the patient, during 2 min. The result of the treatment is assessed by pad test 1 hour and have others outcomes ( quality of life- Sf-26 ans King Health- and sexual function- FSFI questionaire)
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 purpose of this study is to determine whether Yiqi Suoquan Tang, a Chinese Herbal decoction, is effective in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.
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.
