Filter by:The goal of this prospective observational trial is to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of the Glean Urodynamics System (GUS) for use in the clinic to collect vesical pressure data in adult males and females with lower urinary tract symptoms. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: • What is the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of GUS for use in clinical to collect vesical pressure data in adult males and females with lower urinary tract symptoms? Participants will undergo a planned conventional urodynamics exam after which the Glean Sensor will be inserted and ambulatory urodynamics will be performed with the sensor indwelling in the bladder after which the sensor will be removed.
This is a single-center, prospective, single-arm clinical study to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and performance of VenoStent's SelfWrap® Bioabsorbable Perivascular Wrap on arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs). All participants are chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients already receiving hemodialysis treatments that are referred for creation of a new arteriovenous fistula (AVF).
To explore the optimal urethral coverage in hypospadias repair by comparing the success rate of both covering techniques: Dartos fascia versus Tunica Vaginalis flap.
The purpose of this study was to develop proposals and recommendations for improving the safety of urological examination of children with obstructive uropathy by using Doppler ultrasound. Based on the results of a comprehensive urological examination of 665 children with congenital ureteral obstruction, a program for scoring the results of ultrasound examination has been developed, which allows using the safest and most informative methods to reliably determine the functional state of the renal parenchyma and the degree of urodynamic disorders in children with obstructive uropathy.
Since the outbreak of COVID-19 hit Spain in March 2020, most of the elective surgeries have been canceled everywhere. As soon as the epidemiology phase of the pandemic changed and the restrictions have been eased, different protocols have been put in place to screen patients for SARS-CoV-2 before surgery in order to reduce the spreading of the disease in hospitalized patients. To the best of the current state of knowledge, no recommendations or protocols have been established to guide surgeons in dealing with patients developing unspecific symptoms after surgeries, which could sign either of a post-op complication or COVID-19. The investigators have developed an enhanced pre and post-surgical protocol both to screen patients for COVID-19 before surgery and to promptly identify those patients suspicious for the viral infection during the post-op.
This study aims to test the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) in reducing pain and anxiety in children undergoing voiding cystourethrograms (VCUG) at Children's Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA). A voiding cystourethrogram is a genitourinary diagnostic scan that provides important urological information, specifically the filling and releasing of the bladder. This information can help diagnose urological issues in children. However, this procedure requires catheterization, which is understood to be a painful and anxiety-provoking procedure. This study will test the effectiveness of VR as a non-pharmaceutical intervention to relieve pain and anxiety in pediatric patients undergoing VCUGs.
compare the outcomes of SWL for renal and upper lumbar ureteric stones using the alternating bidirectional approach versus the standard approach.
The Objective is to determine if renal hypothermia during open partial nephrectomy results in improved post-operative renal function compared to warm ischemia. Primary Aim is to determine the effect of hypothermia on preservation of overall renal function compared to no hypothermia in patients who require hilar vessel clamping during open partial nephrectomy for a renal tumor. Hypothesis: Hypothermia will result in improved post-operative preservation of overall renal function. Secondary Aim is to determine the effect of hypothermia on preservation of affected renal function (kidney with the tumor) compared to no hypothermia in patients who require hilar vessel clamping during open partial nephrectomy for a renal tumor. Hypothesis: Hypothermia will result in improved post-operative preservation of affected renal function.
