Filter by:Urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy surgery is a common condition that negatively affects daily life. Patients often experience discomfort due to urine leakage and the resulting need to use pads daily. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of high-intensity focused electromagnetic technology used therapeutically in patients with urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy.
There is no study in the literature examining the relationship between urinary incontinence and motor symptoms in individuals with stroke. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between urinary incontinence and spasticity, balance and walking, which negatively affect quality of life and functional performance after stroke.
The progress in surgical procedures for treating female stress urinary incontinence has led to the development of tension-free techniques such as the trans-obturator tape (TOT). Nonetheless, concerns regarding complications associated with the use of artificial mesh have sparked renewed interest in traditional retropubic suspension techniques (Burch). This study introduces a modified technique that creates lateral tension for the anterior vaginal wall before the conventional suspending to the Cooper ligament, limiting the tension on the urethra and reducing the risk of postoperative urinary voiding dysfunction with the same success rates. This technique offers the advantages of a tension-free procedure while still providing the benefits of retropubic suspension. Moreover, this modified technique eliminates the need for artificial mesh, reducing the risk of associated complications. This promising alternative offers effective support for the urethra and reduces postoperative emptying disorders. However, further research and studies are necessary to validate the long-term efficacy and safety of this modified technique.
The aim of this quasi-experimental study was to assess the effectiveness of a 6-week online exercise program on self-assessed quality of life (QoL), physical activity (PA), and dysfunctions of pelvic floor muscles of postpartum women immediately and 6 months after the online intervention. The data were collected with e-questionnaires. The data collection started in September 2021 and ended in September 2023.
We are group of researchers interested in causes and management of nocturnal enuresis, we embarked on this research on 2020 and we reached promising results regarding the role of vitamin D serum level in etiology and management of monosymptomatic enuresis.
Urinary incontinence, characterized by involuntary loss of urine (International Continence Society), is a serious social and health issue whose incidence is increasing. Urinary incontinence refers to a condition in which urine is inadvertently excreted from the bladder to the urethra, usually due to a disability or an incapacity to control the bladder and urethral sphincter. Urinary incontinence is a common complaint in women, which can have an important influence on the quality of her life. Its prevalence is between 10% and 40%, and the most common form is stress urinary incontinence. Age, body mass index, genetic factors, pregnancy and delivery, and a history of hysterectomy, smoking, race, constipation and menopause have been considered as its risk factors.
Storage urinary symptoms are the most complained of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and need further classification. This original study aims to derive a novel classification algorism for female storage LUTS according to a 3-day bladder diary (BD). Further feasibility of the application was also evaluated.
Urinary incontinence, commonly observed among women aged 30 to 60, encompasses Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI), responsible for the majority of cases. This condition significantly affects the quality of life, influencing physical, emotional, and sexual aspects. Severe cases impact libido and cause vaginal dryness, affecting not just sexual function but also relationships, leading to an overall decline in quality of life. Hence, examining sexual functions in those affected by SUI holds significance. The study aimed to evaluate the impact of mesh-urethra distance on sexual functions using perineal ultrasound in continent patients post-transobturator tape (TOT) surgery for isolated SUI. Patients achieving continence post-surgery were categorized based on the distance from the posterior of the urethra at the bladder neck to the nearest proximal edge of the tape: < 5 mm and > 5 mm. Questionnaires, including the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and The Incontinence Questionnaire Urinary Incontinence Short Form (ICIQ-UI SF), were administered preoperatively and at the 6-month postoperative follow-up.
This study is aimed to translate King's Health Questionnaire into Urdu language and to test its reliability and validity among Pakistani women with urinary incontinence.
A randomized controlled trial was made to determine the effectiveness of prenatal pilates-supported childbirth preparation training on birth outcomes, incontinence during pregnancy, and the postpartum period.
