Filter by:Incontinence is common in adults with learning disabilities (LDs). Behavioural toilet training in conjunction with toilet alarms is recommended for people with LDs, but there is a paucity of research, thus evidence-based practise, on behavioural toilet training for adults with LDs. The aim of this study is to assess the toileting needs and issues of 30 adults with LDs with incontinence, and determine whether a 12-week individualised positive behavioural support training intervention, with the use of toilet alarms, promotes continence.
The aims of this project are; 1) To examine the efficacy of ultrasound-guided pelvic floor muscle training compared to standard care on urinary incontinence in patients undergoing robot assisted radical prostatectomy and 2) To compare physical function, incontinence, and QoL in two groups of patients with low or high function of the pelvic floor muscles respectively before the surgery. This study consists of two parts. The first part is a randomized controlled trial where 44 patients with weak pelvic floor muscle function are randomized to either treatment as usual (control group 1) or ultrasound-guided pelvic floor muscle training (Intervention group). In the second part the patients in control group 1 will be compared with 22 patients with normal/strong pelvic floor muscle function (control group 2). Patients not able to perform the pelvic floor muscle test consisting of 8 repetitions of 4-seconds pelvic floor muscle contraction and 1 repetition of 15-seconds pelvic floor muscle contraction will be randomized to either intervention group or control group 1. Patients able to perform the pelvic floor muscle test will be included in control group 2.
The purpose of the study is to find the effectiveness of Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) for urinary incontinence (UI) among Nepalese women. After screening the women who meet the inclusion criteria will be included. Verbal and written consent will be taken from individual participants then the baseline questionnaire data containing socio-demographic variables and questions related to knowledge of UI, PFM and experience with PFMT and ICIQ UI SF will be collected. Then, a women's health physiotherapist will provide education about UI, PFM, PFMT and lifestyle advice. After the education session the randomisation of the participants into either education only (group A) or education plus PFMT (group B) 1:1 by concealed allocation (sealed envelope with A and B). After allocation, the participants will stay in their assigned intervention group for 1 year. After 12 weeks of the supervised intervention again ICIQ UI SF will be administered by a research assistant to both groups. In the 6th month again ICIQ UI SF will be administered by a research assistant to both groups. Finally, in the 12th month again ICIQ UI SF along with self-efficacy and knowledge questions will be assessed to find the effectiveness of the intervention. This data will help in the further development of the protocol or guideline for the Nepalese women.
The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of urinary incontinence among Hungarian women. In addition to that, we aim evaluate the health related quality of life among Hungarian women with urinary incontinence and to culturally adapt the following questionnaires for the Hungarian population: Incontinence Impact Questionnaire - Short Form (IIQ-7) and King's Health Questionnaire (KHQ).
Investigators will study the efficacy and safety of mirabegron25 in treatment of primary nocturnal enuresis in comparison to oral desmopressin 120 mcg and behavioral therapy
This study aims to compare the success rate and complications following laparoscopic standard Burch colposuspension and laparoscopic modified Burch colposuspension (Transobturator tape like)
This is an open label, interventional, single arm, multi-clinic study where each adult female participant with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) serves as her own control (vaginal pessary use vs. no vaginal pessary).
Urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) is common in older people and vastly reduces quality of life, yet the cause and mechanism of disease are not well understood. This study will investigate the role of adding behavioral sleep intervention to the standard pharmacotherapy in treatment of UUI among older adults, and the brain mechanisms involved in continence by evaluating brain changes. This will expand the current knowledge of how the sleep affects bladder control, and better characterize the brain mechanisms in maintaining continence.
Urge urinary incontinence (UUI) is associated with nocturia, a common cause of sleep disorders, also related to levels of anxiety and depression. Studies demonstrate improvement in the clinical parameters of women with UUI after treatment with transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS). However, there are few data available on the association of urinary symptoms in women with UUI with sedentary behavior (SB), physical activity level (PAL) and sleep quality (SQ). Our study has the objective of evaluating the impact of TTNS on urinary symptoms, anxiety level, life quality(LQ), sleep parameters, PAL and SB in women with UUI.
Urinary incontinence (UI) is a symptom that develops due to damage to the bladder, sphincter mechanism or pelvic floor muscles, defined as unconscious urinary incontinence, which is a common health problem among adult women. Urinary incontinence can be classified as urge incontinence (UUI), stress incontinence (SUI) or mixed incontinence (MUI). Considering the prevalence values of UI subtypes that change with age, it was found that SUI was the highest (32%) in the 40-59 age group. Although UI is not life-threatening, it imposes significant limitations on women's activities of daily living and sexual and interpersonal relationships. Emotional problems such as embarrassment, depression, sadness and low body image associated with UI have a negative impact on quality of life. Pharmacological, surgical and behavioral treatment methods can be applied in the treatment of UI, which causes significant negative effects on quality of life. However, there are various limitations in the implementation of these methods. This situation has revealed the necessity of developing new methods in the treatment of UI. One of the behavioral treatment methods that can provide therapeutic benefits for urinary incontinence is yoga. Recently, yoga has become a new option for strengthening pelvic floor muscles and treating symptoms related to pelvic floor dysfunctions. Yoga can be practiced by women without constant supervision by healthcare providers, thus providing an accessible and cost-effective self-management strategy for large numbers of women in the community. Nurses have important roles and responsibilities in the diagnosis, treatment and care process of UI. Nurses need to plan and implement a care that will increase the quality of life and provide comfort for patients with UI. The word comfort, which we often use in our daily life, expresses a basic human need. The taxonomic structure of the Comfort Theory, which was formed on the basis of the concept of comfort, which is a nursing function, attempt and at the same time, the intended result of most nursing interventions, consisting of three levels and four dimensions, was revealed by Kolcaba in 1988. Kolcaba emphasized that comfort care is a process as an attempt to achieve comfort, and that increasing comfort level is a product. In the literature, no randomized controlled study was found in which nursing interventions based on Comfort Theory were applied to female patients with a diagnosis of SUI. In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the effect of nursing interventions based on Comfort Theory applied to female patients with a diagnosis of SUI on UI, quality of life and comfort level.
