Active clinical trials for "Diurnal Enuresis"

The study will enroll 113 participants, randomly will be assigned to one of three groups will receive either group A will receive combined therapy of biofeedback training and osteopathy techniques, group B will receive biofeedback training, group C will receive osteopathy technique only over a period of 10 weeks, followed by an 8-week follow-up period. Outcome measures will include the 24-hour pad test, Pediatric Lower Urinary Tract Symptom Score (PLUTSS), and the bladder diary.

The aim of this study is to investigate whether the activity in brain areas controlling the bladder is different among children suffering from Overactive Bladder (OAB) and Daytime Urinary Incontinence (DUI) compared to age- and gender-matched healthy children without bladder symptoms. Moreover, the aim is to investigate if sacral transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation (TENS) has a central mechanism of action. Children with OAB and DUI will be recruited from involved pediatric departments, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) will be performed before and after 10 weeks of sacral TENS. In healthy children without bladder symptoms, only the baseline fMRI will be performed.

Urinary incontinence is an increasing medical and socio-economical problem. 44% of the elderly (>65 years) women and 28% of the elderly men suffer from unwilling urine loss. Moreover, this percentages increase with age. Incontinence is a problem with multiple physical, psychological, and financial effects. In addition incontinence has a important impact on the family and healthcare professionals surrounding the elderly. The problem of urinary incontinence is complex and multifactorial. Moreover, diagnostic guidelines are inconsistent leading to a high amount of technical interventions to diagnose and to specify the type of incontinence. Aim of this study is to create a short form of necessary technical investigations to diagnose and evaluate urinary incontinence.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of a voiding reeducation program as treatment for incontinence in children with a brain injury.

A randomized controlled trial to assess clinically the efficacy of the selective ileum spasmolytic mebeverine on daytime incontinence and nocturnal enuresis of orthotopic w-ileal neobladders and quality of life effect within 1 year post-surgery.

Constipation treatment has been found to ameliorate symptoms in some patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction (including day time or combined day time/night time urinary incontinence). This study aims to explore if treatment of patients without overt constipation (As defined by the ROME III criteria) will also respond to anti-constipation treatment with reduction of their urinary tract symptoms. Assessment of severity and response of lower urinary tract dysfunction will be based on the Vancouver NULTD/DES questionnaire.

The use of alternative therapy, particularly herbal treatment is becoming prevalent among patients. Many herbs are in-use for various ailments such as diabetes, digestive problems, fever, hepatitis and hypertension etc. The common belief is, herbs are safe and easy to access as compared to conventional therapy, however, most of the studies reported different side effects which may be toxic at times. These adverse effects are mostly due to incorrect use or lack of patient education. Parsley is a plant with antioxidant, diuretic and antimicrobial properties. Literature reported use of parsley as a diuretic by different communities in throughout the world. In vitro studies in animal have also reported the diuretic effect as well as proposed mechanisms for the use of parsley as diuretic however none of the studies have been conducted to investigate the diuretic effect of parsley in humans. This study aims to evaluate the diuretic and hence antihypertensive effect of parsley in hypertensive patients.

The Voiding School is a simple educational intervention to treat children with daytime incontinence or enuresis.The purpose of this study is to implement the intervention in primary care, child welfare clinics. Half of the participated children will receive treatment according the Voiding School protocoll and half of them will receive treatment as usual. Patient outcomes are evaluated by measuring changes in wetting episodes. Aim is also to evaluate the implementation process.
