Active clinical trials for "Fecal Incontinence"

The publications on prevalence and risk factors of urinary and anal incontinence in women were performed mainly in Europe and America. Consequently, result extrapolation to Tunisian population may not be a good practice which justifies this study and demonstrates its importance.

The aim of this study is to determine the success rate, the success duration, the complication rate, maintenance effort and quality of life several years after sacral nerve modulation (SNM) treatment for constipation or stool incontinence.

The main objective of this study is to perform the linguistic validation of a new french questionnaire in a population of sexually active (or not) patients who have undergone surgery (or not) for stress urinary incontinence or genital prolapse.

We propose to develop parent and child disease-specific instruments to assess health related quality of life (HRQoL) in children with constipation and fecal incontinence.

Faecal incontinence has a broad spectrum of symptoms. Some patients only suffer commonly considered mild symptoms: gas incontinence and soiling, but patients' quality of life is significantly impaired. Although several treatments for faecal incontinence are available, this subgroup of patients are difficult to treat, and no therapeutic alternative has been clearly defined. The aim of this study is to evaluate Gatekeeper™ treatment for this subgroup of patients with faecal incontinence, not studied before. Consecutive case series single-centre study. Patients with mainly soiling and/or gas incontinence were treated with polyacrylonitrile prostheses

A prospective, open label post market registry to collect Patient Reported Outcomes in an online data capture registry, maintained by Pelvalon, of women with fecal incontinence exiting the LIBERATE study (NCT02428595) continuing to use the Eclipse System for bowel control.

The lifetime risk for a woman to undergo surgery for either vaginal prolapse or urinary incontinence is high. Previous studies have shown that pregnancy and childbirth are risk factors for developing prolapse. There is a lack of studies that follow women several years after delivery aiming to find whether symptoms of prolapse are linked to delivery method, ie vacuum, forceps, normal vaginal delivery and cesarean section. The investigators plan this study is to get more knowledge about pathology of prolapse and incontinence, to enable development of preventive strategies for these conditions. Aim of the study is to determine whether the prevalence of symptoms and performed surgery for urogenital prolapse differs among women delivered by vacuum, forceps, normal vaginal delivery and cesarean section 15-20 years after their first delivery. The investigators identify women that delivered their first child at St. Olavs Hospital, Trondheim, Norway between 1990-1997. Questionnaires will be sent to 2500 women (PFIQ-7, PFDI-20, PISQ-12), 600 of whom will get a clinical examination, where pelvic floor musculature is examined by palpation and 4D ultrasound, and a POP-Q quantification of prolapse performed.

Pressures measured by manometric solid-state catheters may differ according to the type of the catheter and specific anatomy and physiology of anorectum. The aim of the study is to establish the difference in recordings between 2 types of anorectal catheters used in pediatric patients and to validate the most appropriate way to diagnose of functional disorders.

The primary objective of this study is the psychometric validation of two questionnaires (PISQ-R and a new questionnaire on sexuality) as compared to a non specific questionnaire on female sexual function (FSFI).

Purpose To compare different kinds of diagnostic investigations in order to identify the most sensitive and least invasive when diagnosing constipation.
