Filter by:Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common complication after surgery for prolapse or urinary incontinence. UTIs are painful and have the potential to turn into kidney infections. We are asking women who self-catheterize after surgery to try either an antibiotic or a placebo pill so we can see if we can prevent UTIs without causing side effects. This study will not require any additional visits or blood draws. You will be asked to answer some questions, keep a brief diary of your experience, and immediately report any symptoms of a UTI to your doctor.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether women with overactive bladder (OAB) who receive direct instillation via a catheter of a Botulinum-A Toxin (Botox) with Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) solution experience significantly better improvement of their OAB symptoms when compared to a similar group of women with OAB who receive instillation of DMSO only.
The midurethral tension-free vaginal tape (a macroporous polypropylene mesh) procedure is a well established technique for treating female stress urinary incontinence in patients with (hyper)mobile urethra. Postoperative continence rates are achieved in up to 95%. Currently, several anatomical approaches are developed and investigated to simplify this minimal invasive technique and make it safer. While the retropubic approach consists of the passage of the needles from under the midurethra up behind the pubic bone through the cavum retzii, the transobturator technique traverses the foramina obturatoria. Intraoperative complications like bladder perforation (in 4%) can be treated conservatively, while postoperative complications like voiding dysfunction (urinary outlet obstruction in up to 16% or urinary retention) are troublesome, impair the quality of life and require occasionally surgical sling release (transection of the sling). The aim of this study is to compare quality of life, postoperative voiding dysfunction, success rates and tape position after retropubic and transobturator sling procedure. - Trial with surgical intervention
To compare the efficacy and complications of the TVT SECUR system (TVT S) and trans-vaginal obturator tape (TVT-O) procedures for the surgical management of female stress urinary incontinence.
To test the value of preoperatively performed urodynamics with regard to outcome of surgery for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and to examine whether not performing urodynamics preoperatively is more cost effective than performing urodynamics preoperatively using the non-inferiority assumption.
The study is to collect information from patient charts and patient questionnaires to evaluate the effects of nerve stimulation therapy on urinary dysfunction.
This study is designed to determine the efficacy of escalating doses of ELB245 versus placebo , when administered to patients with OAB and to compare the efficacy of escalating doses of ELB245 versus the standard treatment tolterodine, when administered to patients with OAB.
This study aims as defining success rate of the incontinence ring in women with test proven stress urinary incontinence and determining factors associated with successful use.
The purpose of this study is to see whether Botox A (injected into the bladder muscle) can improve symptoms of urge incontinence that has not improved with usual medical treatments.
This is a two-part study in which Part A will assess the effects of GW679769 after 1 dose on the function of the nerves that supply the bladder. The technique for measuring the nerves function is called Neurometry. Part B will assess the effect of repeat doses of GW679769 on the bladder nerve function. Part B will also assess the effects of the drug on overactive bladder symptoms using a three-day patient diary.
