Filter by:Nocturnal Enuresis (NE) is defined as the involuntary passage of urine during sleep past the age of usual control, which is considered a developmental age of 5 to 7 years. NE is a common problem that causes distress to both children and their families. It has an adverse impact on behavior and social life, affects self-esteem, and can result in poor emotional well-being. In Egypt, the prevalence of NE in primary school children is about 15.4%. The family history was seen to have had a markedly significant impact on the occurrence of NE in the studied children. The mainstay of treatment is urotherapy with information and psychoeducation about normal lower urinary tract function, the underlying cause of MNE, disturbed bladder dysfunction in the child with NMNE, and instructions about therapeutic strategies. Alarm therapy and desmopressin are effective in randomized trials. Children with NMNE first need treatment of the underlying daytime functional bladder problem before treatment of nocturnal enuresis.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the Voro Urologic Scaffold as a prophylactic treatment for post-prostatectomy stress urinary incontinence. The study is a prospective, multicenter, single arm study. Up to 40 subjects will be treated at up to 3 investigational sites in Panama. Subjects will be followed up post-treatment at catheter removal, 6 weeks post prostatectomy, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months and 2 years.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if prophylactic antibiotics in urethral bulking are effective in reducing postprocedural urinary tract infections.
Tele-rehabilitation involves health care services, support and information provided remotely via digital communication and devices. It intends to facilitate effective delivery of health services such as physical therapy by improving access to care and information and managing health care resources. Other terms such as telehealth, telemonitoring, tele-rehabilitation, tele-education and tele-assistance describe digital practice. Due to the pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), health associations worldwide have released recommendations about care from distance using tools of communication and information technologies
The aim of this prospective academic research study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Victo adjustable artificial sphincter in the treatment of male patients with urinary incontinence due to prostate surgery.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of transobturator tape (TOT) operation and urethral ligament plication operation in stress incontinence patients. The main question: - Which operation is more effective in treatment of stress incontinence? - Which operation has less complication and risks? Participants will be followed about 5 days, 2.5 months, 6 months and 1 year after the operation and asked about the continence status and complications.
Urinary incontinence is defined by the International Children's Continence Society as involuntary urinary leakage that can be continuous or intermittent in children aged five and over. Urinary incontinence is divided into subgroups of daytime incontinence, nocturnal enuresis and combined daytime incontinence and nocturnal enuresis. Different pelvic floor rehabilitation programs appear to be effective in children with daytime incontinence and nocturnal enuresis but mostly focus on the pelvic floor muscle training component. However, pelvic floor rehabilitation includes many components such as education, lifestyle changes, manual techniques, pelvic floor muscle training, functional exercises, biofeedback therapy, electrical stimulation and home program. However, there is no study examining the effectiveness of a multimodal pelvic floor rehabilitation program in the treatment of children with urinary incontinence. It is also unclear for which urinary incontinence type the multimodal pelvic floor rehabilitation program will be more effective. Therefore, investigators aim to compare the effects of a multimodal pelvic floor rehabilitation program on lower urinary tract symptoms, pelvic floor muscles and other related muscle functions in children with different urinary incontinence types. Children between the ages of 5 and 18 who were diagnosed with urinary incontinence by applying to Ege University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Urology will be included in the study. Participants will be divided into three groups: daytime incontinence, nocturnal enuresis, and combined daytime incontinence and nocturnal enuresis. A multimodal pelvic floor rehabilitation program will be performed on all children for 10 weeks, two days a week and approximately 45 minutes. A multimodal pelvic floor rehabilitation program will include education, bladder and bowel training, manual techniques, exercise training (diaphragmatic breathing exercise, pelvic floor muscle training, trunk stabilization exercises based on developmental kinesiology) and a home program. Children's lower urinary symptoms will be assessed with the Dysfunctional Voiding and Incontinence Scoring System, Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire, Childhood Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire, bladder and bowel diary, and the functions of the pelvic floor muscles and other related muscles will be assessed with superficial electromyography and ultrasonography.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate whether standard behavioral therapy combined with high-dose vitamin D (2400iu daily) is superior to standard behavioral therapy alone and standard behavioral therapy combined with solifenacin medication in improving frequency of incontinence and lower urinary tract symptom scores in children with wet OAB. Dedicated to understanding the current best treatment for wet OAB and to informing future clinical decisions and improving patient prognosis. The main questions it seeks to answer are - Question 1 To attempt to elucidate the relationship between vitamin D levels and their lower urinary tract symptoms. - Question 2 To examine the etiologic role of vitamin D in wet OAB in children. - Question 3 Compare the effectiveness and safety of interventions to elucidate the etiologic mechanisms and optimal intervention strategies for wet OAB in children. The researchers will compare (1) standard behavioral therapy with solifenacin (2) standard behavioral therapy with high-dose vitamin D (3) standard behavioral therapy alone to observe the clinical efficacy and safety of the three interventions for children with wet OAB.
To investigate if post-operative penile vibration stimulation kan be used to reduce or prevent sexual dysfunction and urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy. This will be done in a randomized, controlled, non-blinded study. Men that undergo nerve preserving surgery for prostate cancer is allocated into an intervention group and a control group. A total of 100 men will be included for a power of 80%. The intervention group will be instructed to use the "Ferticare 2.0" vibrator for at least five minutes a day with an amplitude of 1 mm and frequency of 90 Hz (these settings were found in a pilot study) for a total of 9 months. Both groups will do the standard pelvic floor training program and both groups will be offered regular phosphodiesterase-5-inhibitor treatment. Before surgery, 3, 6 and 10 months after the patients will have to fill out four different questionnaires regarding sexual and urinary function, including IIEF-EF, EHS, "neglected side effects" and ICIQ-SF. (10 months is due to a wash-out period of 1 month after the intervention). The collected data will be analysed and the primary goal is to see if there is a significant difference in average spontaneous IIEF-EF score in the two groups 10 months after the surgery.
Overactive bladder (OAB) imposes a significant quality of life, mental health, and economic burdens. OAB with or without Urgency incontinence is associated with depression, sexual dysfunction, and limitation of social interactions and physical activities, which significantly affects quality of life. Non-invasive neuromodulation with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can be used in research settings to investigate responses to focal regional brain activation. In the clinical setting, rTMS normalizes brain activity with associated clinical benefits in conditions such as refractory depression. rTMS has been studied for effects on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in bladder pain and neurogenic lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) populations. Unlike many standard of care OAB interventions, the safety of rTMS is well-reported, including for use in elderly populations and those with cognitive impairment. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to evaluate neuroplasticity is emerging as an essential tool to define OAB phenotypes; however, phenotyping studies guided by mechanistic data are lacking. The effects of central neuromodulation on regions involved OAB mechanisms and associated physiological and clinical responses are unknown. This study will be the first to report neuroplasticity, physiologic, and clinical effects of central neuromodulation with rTMS in adults with OAB.
