Filter by:This study will examine pelvic floor muscles function amongst women who run on a regular basis compared to controls. Women who do not run, will begin running protocol, and second evaluation will be performed following 2 months of training. Urinary incontinence will also be assessed.
The investigators aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of periurethral hypertonic saline (10% NaCl) injection for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and stress-predominant mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) in women.
Examination of pelvic floor contraction in different positions among women with and without stress urinary incontinence (SUI) will be conducted via diagnostic ultrasound. This will enable clinicians and researchers to establish an appropriate protocol for pelvic floor muscle examination and treatment.
Urodynamic testing is used to help diagnose causes of urinary incontinence and voiding dysfunction. The purpose of the urodynamic test is to gain insight into the patient's urinary symptoms and assist in making a diagnosis. Catheter insertion and manipulation during the test can be uncomfortable for the patient. Lidocaine gel has not been used routinely during urodynamic testing. However, it is used routinely during outpatient cystoscopy and with any urethral catheterization. The investigators proposed that lidocaine numbing gel could be used without compromising test findings. The study included 110 adult women. The purpose was: 1. Determine whether the use of topical lidocaine during urodynamic testing decreases patient discomfort during the procedure. 2. Evaluate whether the use of topical lidocaine affects the urodynamic results.
The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of a group-based yoga intervention to decrease the frequency and impact of urinary incontinence in ambulatory middle-aged and older women and explore potential mediators of improvement in outcomes. Women aged 45 years and older who report daily or more frequent stress-, urgency-, or mixed-type incontinence, are not already engaged in formal yoga or muscle stretching/strengthening programs, are willing to temporarily forgo other clinical treatments for incontinence, are able to walk to and use the bathroom without assistance, and meet other eligibility criteria will be recruited from multiple locations surrounding the San Francisco Bay area.
The rising success of cell therapies places an increasing burden on health care costs. Consequently, the need to reduce production costs while maintaining quality has been widely acknowledged. In addition, the demand for high-quality products with an optimal safety profile is increasing. The proposed cell treatment is the first therapeutical option with the possibility to revert the underlying condition. The investigators expect that this healing response will be achieved with minimal side effects justifying the addional costs and complexity.
The purpose of this study is to determine the interactions between pregnancy and urinary stress incontinence in women with a mid-urethral sling (MUS). The specific aims of the 2 sub studies are: Study 1: The main aims of Study 1 are to evaluate any potential impact on urinary stress continence after a pregnancy/delivery following MUS surgery, and to evaluate any potential differences in continence status based on the mode of delivery for these women. Study 2: The aim of Study 2 is to examine how obstetric factors may affect the degree of incontinence in women registered in The Norwegian female incontinence registry prior to surgical treatment. In addition, we want to explore if there are obstetric risk factors predicting failure of a MUS surgery performed after pregnancy/delivery.
This study evaluates the effectiveness and complications of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and polypropylene (PP) transobturator suburethral tapes (TOTs) in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence. Half of participants will be operated with PVDF-TOTs, while the other half will be operated with PP ones.
This study examines the effect of adding so called Kaatsu training to pelvic floor muscle training. Half the participants will perform Kaatsu training on their thigh muscles followed by pelvic floor muscle training. The other half will receive pelvic floor muscle training alone.
Prospective randomized clinical trial comparing two methods of intra-operative tensioning of retropubic midurethral slings for stress urinary incontinence. Primary outcome is rate of abnormal bladder function. Secondary outcomes include validated quality of life scores, physical exam findings, and rates of immediate post operative voiding dysfunction.
