Filter by:The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy between Electromagnetic Stimulation therapy and Electromagnetic Stimulation therapy with Extracorporeal Biofeedback in Stress Urinary Incontinence patient.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of low elasticity polyvinylidene fluoride (DynaMesh®-SIS soft) retropubic tension-free midurethral slings in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence in women. Women who are having a retropubic PVDF midurethral sling for urodynamic stress incontinence will be followed up for 24 months to address its efficacy and rate of complications.
Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is the first line therapy recommended by NICE for the treatment of SUI. Due to poor motivation and compliance only 15-20% of women comply with the regimen. Whole body vibration (WBV) exercise has been developed as a new modality in the field of physiotherapy. The Galileo machine is a unique device for applying whole-body vibration. The investigators are currently using this therapy as an alternative to traditional pelvic floor muscle therapy. The investigators aim to audit the investigators treatment of whole body vibration.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of electroacupuncture (EA) for simple female stress urinary incontinence.
During the last decade numerous new procedures have been presented regarding surgical treatment of urinary stress incontinence (1,2). Development of the midurethral tape procedure (TVT) changed the surgical procedure dramatically both regarding the extent of the surgical procedure and also decreased the morbidity remarkably. The success rate of the TVT procedure has been proven to be high (1,2 ). However, the development of the TOT/TVT-O procedures disclosed a new fixation point and further decreased the risk of bladder injury (1,2). Since the introduction of trans-obturator slings several mini-slings have been introduced in order to reduce the need of perforation of the skin and muscles (3,4,5). Although some systems seem promising (5) others have disclosed a long learning curve, pain problems following the procedure and lower success rates, compared to the traditional sling procedures. None of these mini-slings have been adjustable. Recently the Ajust system for treatment of stress urinary incontinence was introduced. The system is a single incision sling procedure and consists of an adjustable Polypropylene mesh sling with self fixation anchors (6). In a feasibility study (6), the 6 months objective cure rate was 82%, but there is a lack of information regarding adverse events and durability of treatment success. Our preliminary experiences suggest, that the procedure has a rapid learning curve, low pain scores postoperatively and a 94% cure rate at 3 months follow-up (personal observation). Recently, several abstracts have indicated that the cure rate obtained by Ajust is comparable to TVT or TVT-O (10-12). The purpose of the present study is (primary outcome): To test the hypothesis that the Ajust and TVT, TVT-O and TOT, respectively are equal regarding subjective cure rate (cure is defined as subjectively not incontinent at all), i.e. the study is designed as a non-inferiority study. The study is performed as a randomised controlled trial without blinding. The study is powered to detect a 9% difference between the two groups. The subjective cure rate is based on ICIQ measurement Secondary outcome: - To test the hypothesis that Ajust is associated with a significantly lower postoperative pain perception. - To test the hypothesis that antibiotic treatment is not necessary
Women with urinary stress incontinence who underwent surgical treatment by either TVTO or TVTS will be enrolled. The investigators will collect data from charts and use a telephone questionnaire to check the outcome of these women. Physical examination findings will also be incorporated.
The aim of this prospective, randomized study of Bulkamid treatment is to investigate the efficacy of Bulkamid treatment in women with urinary stress incontinence not suitable to TVT-procedure because of suspected ISD.
The objective was to observe the satisfaction of local anesthesia during the implantation of the TVT-SECUR for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence, with the use of questionnaires completed by the patients, and to evaluate the short-term efficacy and safety of the sling, with a comparison of the two techniques of implantation: the 'U-Method' and the 'Hammock' technique.
It is unknown whether it is best to do the TVT( procedure for urinary stress incontinence in women) at the time of prolapse surgery or at a later date. Women with both conditions were randomized to both procedures together or the TVT 3 months after the prolapse surgery. Any or no leakage when couching was the main end-point, evaluated 1 year after the last surgery
