Active clinical trials for "Enuresis"

The purpose of this study is to see whether Botox A (injected into the bladder muscle) can improve symptoms of urge incontinence that has not improved with usual medical treatments.

Single-blind, multicenter, randomized clinical trial of the Vesair Balloon in the treatment of Stress Urinary Incontinence in post-menopausal women

This is a single-center prospective cohort study sponsored by the University Hospitals Leuven (UZ). Women will undergo a pelvic floor ultrasound and will be asked to fill out a questionnaire at the time of their admission into the labour suite, at the postpartum check-up and 12 months postpartum. The primary objective is to correlate self-reported symptoms of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction (PFD) (binary outcome) at one year after delivery with structural changes to the Pelvic Floor Muscles (PFM) and postpartum evidence of levator avulsion (binary indicator) as measured by TransPerineal UltraSound (TPUS). Secondary objectives are to compare demographical and obstetrical variables between patients suffering from PFD symptoms or pelvic floor injury (documented one year after delivery) and those who do not; to record how patients manage and cope with PFD including recovery and compliance with Pelvic Floor Muscle Training (PFMT) as prescribed in the standard pathway of peripartum care; and to use of TPUS images for the development of artificial intelligence tools for automated image analysis. Primary outcomes are PFD symptoms one year after delivery and injury to the PFM evidenced by POP-Q and TPUS. The demographic variables and information about the pregnancy and the delivery will be obtained from the medical records. The presence and severity of PFD will be measured using standardized self-reporting tools: Pelvic Organ Prolapse Distress Index (POP-DI), Patient Assessment Constipation-SYMptoms (PAC-SYM), International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Urinary Incontinence - Short Form (ICIQ-SF), St. Mark's Incontinence Score (SMIS), Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), Female Sexual Distress Scale - Revised (FSDS-R). FSFI is a widely used generic tool with sufficient granularity and validated in a large number of languages. FSDS-R assesses the construct "personal distress", which has been considered as an additional important aspect contributing to sexual dysfunction of women. PFD, as a clustered outcome, being the presence of any kind of pelvic floor dysfunction symptoms, will be defined as POP-DI score of ≥11 OR ICIQ-SF score of ≥1 OR SMIS score of ≥1 OR FSFI score ≤ 26.55 OR FSDS-R score ≥11.

The objective of this study is to compare two methods of pelvic floor muscle training: reference method versus CMP ® method ( (Connaissance et Maîtrise de Périnée : Knowledge and Control of Perineum)

The midurethral tension-free vaginal tape (a macroporous polypropylene mesh) procedure is a well established technique for treating female stress urinary incontinence in patients with (hyper)mobile urethra. Postoperative continence rates are achieved in up to 95%. Currently, several anatomical approaches are developed and investigated to simplify this minimal invasive technique and make it safer. While the retropubic approach consists of the passage of the needles from under the midurethra up behind the pubic bone through the cavum retzii, the transobturator technique traverses the foramina obturatoria. Intraoperative complications like bladder perforation (in 4%) can be treated conservatively, while postoperative complications like voiding dysfunction (urinary outlet obstruction in up to 16% or urinary retention) are troublesome, impair the quality of life and require occasionally surgical sling release (transection of the sling). The aim of this study is to compare quality of life, postoperative voiding dysfunction, success rates and tape position after retropubic and transobturator sling procedure. Trial with surgical intervention

The purpose of this study is to compare treatment outcomes for patients with mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) for whom therapy is initiated with surgery to those for whom therapy is initiated with non-surgical treatment. Women who are bothered by symptoms of both stress and urge incontinence will be randomly assigned to initiate treatment with a surgical (surgery for stress incontinence) vs. a non-surgical (drug and behavioral therapy) approach. Follow-up will be a minimum of 12 Months.

This study is being done to compare frequency of urination during the night when women take tolterodine tablets vs. when they take placebo tablets. We will also measure whether between these two treatment conditions there are any differences in women's sleep, mood and performance on cognitive tests.

In our study, we aimed to evaluate the effects of core stabilization exercises added to traditional Kegel exercises on incontinence and quality of life in women with stress and stress dominant mixed urinary incontinence.

Urinary incontinence is common females., it badly affects their performance and result in psychosocial problems in addition to the barriers that already have been resulted from incontinence. This study combines simple regime of hip adductor a strengthening with pelvic floor muscles. The theme is to test if pelvic floor muscle training can be augmented by incorporating adductor muscle strengthening. If this comes out to be effective, this can be great contribution to gym doing females to improve their urinary incontinence related impairments. Woman would be encouraged to continue regular exercise. This will be randomized clinical trial. There are two groups for the compression of adductors strengthening and pelvic floor muscle strengthening. The collected data will be entered in SPSS 20.0, Descriptive and Inferential statists will be applied. Results and conclusion will be drawn.

Introduction: Urinary incontinence (UI) is a condition that affects around 40% of postmenopausal women and is therefore considered a public health problem. Conservative treatment is recommended, and pelvic floor muscle training (PMT) is considered the gold standard for this type of condition. However, other possibilities of exercises have been studied to achieve continence, such as Pilates exercises, which focus on the stabilizing muscles and request a voluntary contraction of the muscles of the pelvic floor (PFM), it is believed that it can recruit fibers from these muscles, improving muscle function and episodes of urinary incontinence. However, the literature is still inconclusive regarding the effects of Pilates exercises on urinary incontinence and PFM function. Objective: To compare the effects of 3 months of muscle training, through TMAP and Pilates exercises on the improvement of UI in postmenopausal women. Methods: 40 postmenopausal women with urinary incontinence will be randomly assigned to two intervention groups: pelvic floor muscle training and Pilates exercises. The evaluations will be carried out before the interventions and after three months of them, and will involve the following instruments: urinary incontinence and aspects related to quality of life, assessed using the International Consultation of Urinary Incontinence questionnaire Short Form (ICIQ-UI-SF); 7-day voiding diary, used to identify possible modifiable factors related to urination and its frequency; Pad-test used to identify and quantify UI; Feeling Scale, to portray the affective valence of the exercises; Female Sexual Function Index, which will assess female sexual function; Manometric assessment of muscle strength and PFM endurance with Epi-no; and Manometric evaluation by bidigital palpation using the PERFECT test. Shapiro Wilk tests will be performed to verify normality, Student's t or Mann Whitney U test according to parametric or non-parametric distribution, ANCOVA for comparison between groups in the post-intervention, considering the 95% confidence interval (p<0.05) . The data will be processed in the SPSS 25.0 program.
