Filter by:Urinary incontinence can impact on one's social, physical, mental, and sexual wellbeing, and lead to depression and social isolation Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) refers to the involuntary leakage of urine accompanying physical exertion (i.e. coughing, exercise, and sneezing). It is commonly acquired after pregnancy and childbirth due to the weakening of the pelvic floor muscles that support the urethra against the anterior vaginal wall. Current SUI treatment includes surgery to re-establish sufficient urethral resistance in order to prevent urine leakage during increased intra-abdominal pressure.
Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is indicated as a first-line treatment for stress urinary incontinence. PFMT aims to improve pelvic floor muscle strength, endurance and relaxation ability or a combination of these. PFMT is a structured and customized exercise program. Pelvic floor muscles work in synchronization with many muscles and pelvic floor muscle function is supported by synergistic muscles. Relationships between the functions of pelvic floor muscles and synergistic muscle groups have been reported in the literature. However, studies comparing the efficacy of PFMT and combined training of these muscles are limited and more studies are needed. Therefore the aim of this study is to compare the effects of isolated PFMT and functional PFMT in women with stress urinary incontinence.
When the studies in the literature including the mini-sling procedure and the laparoscopic buch colposuspension procedure are examined, it is seen that both methods are successful in the surgical treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI), but there is no study in which both procedures have been found to be superior to each other in terms of efficacy and safety. The aim of this study is to compare the minisling suburethral sling and laparoscopic buch colposuspension application in terms of efficacy and side effects in patients who will undergo surgical treatment due to genuine SUI.
The aim is to compare outcomes of two different procedures to prevent occult stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in patients who are having pelvic organ prolapse surgeries
The purpose of this open, multi center trial is to evaluate a new biological replacement for synthetic slings in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.
Q-tip test was applied for evaluation of urethral hypermobility (UH) in stress-incontinent women. It is still unknown whether there is an alternative method for the assessment of UH in a less invasive way or not. We aim to assess the correlation between the overall rest-stress distance measured by transperineal ultrasound (TPUS) and Q-tip test angle in women with urodynamic stress incontinence (USI) scheduled for mid-urethral sling surgery (MUS), and determine a cut off value of rest-stress distance for predicting UH.
Telerehabilitation (TR) refers to the provision of rehabilitation services through information and communication technologies. The most widely used of these technologies are applications such as telephone and video conferencing. Urinary incontinence is defined as involuntary urinary incontinence ). This condition, which affects both sexes, is more common in women. Urinary incontinence is caused by dysfunction in the bladder and pelvic floor muscles in women during menopause, childbirth, or pregnancy. Urinary incontinence is a health problem that significantly affects people's social interactions, interests, and psychosocial status. It has been shown that even mild incontinence complaints cause a decrease in the quality of life in women. Pelvic floor muscle training is one of the conservative treatment methods used in the treatment of urinary incontinence.Adding breathing exercises and deep abdominal muscle strengthening exercises to pelvic floor muscle training may be beneficial in patients with urinary incontinence. In patients with urinary incontinence, women who are in regular communication with the supervisor during pelvic floor muscle training are more likely to gain higher from the program. However, it has not been shown that group physiotherapy is less effective than physiotherapy administered individually in reducing incontinence episodes. In the light of this information in the literature, our research hypothesis is that in patients with urinary incontinence, follow-up the pelvic floor muscle training, breathing exercise, and core exercise training with individually video conference method can have positive effects on patients' muscle strength, incontinence degree, quality of life, patient satisfaction, exercise adherence, and sexual function.
Urinary incontinence (UI) is defined as any involuntary loss of urine. It affects a significant percentage of the population, mainly female, with a prevalence of 21.4% in Portuguese women, having a negative impact on quality of life and sexual function. About half presents with stress UI (SUI), followed by mixed UI (MUI), with isolated urgency UI being less common. Pelvic floor rehabilitiation is a first line treatment for SUI and MUI, however, it is not yet defined which is the best treatment program or the ideal strategies to improve adherence to it. Telerehabilitation assumed a leading role in the covid pandemic phase, although there are few studies on pelvic floor rehabilitation for UI, none in Portugal to date. The authors aim to evaluate the effectiveness of a hybrid program of pelvic floor rehabilitation in female patients with SUI and MUI with a predominance of SUI, including consultation and face-to-face sessions complemented with telerehabilitation.
The study is intended to assess the safety and efficacy of Carbon dioxide AcuPulse laser treatment in patients with stress urinary incontinence. Eligible subjects will be randomized to either receive 3 laser or 3 sham treatment sessions, 4 weeks apart and 3 follow up visits 3, 6 and 12 months following the last treatment.
The present study is a clinical intervention applied to patients with urinary incontinence, with the intention of verifying the effects of the Pilates method associated or not with photobiomodulation with static magnetic field. The sample will consist of women with stress urinary incontinence from Bento Gonçalves attended at the school clinic of Faculdade Cenecista de Bento Gonçalves.
