Active clinical trials for "Enuresis"

This is a prospective, comparative randomized controled trial. The general purposes of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of TVTO™ and TVTSecur™ as surgical treatment for female urinary stress incontinence.

Urgency incontinence is a common and burdensome problem in women. Current treatments for this condition, while effective, are associated with potentially disabling side effects and high rates of discontinuation. There is an urgent need for alternate treatments for urgency incontinence that are both clinically effective and well-tolerated by women in the community. RESPeRATE is a commercially available "walkman-like" device that measures chest/abdominal excursion during respiration using an elastic belt with a sensor placed around the torso over clothing. The device senses respiration and uses musical tones keyed to inhalation and exhalation to help the user slow respiration and prolong exhalation to a recommended goal of less than 10 breaths per minute. RESPeRATE is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of mild hypertension, and use of the device has also been shown to decrease self-reported anxiety and stress, oxygen consumption, and respiratory rate. Because anxiety and stress are strongly associated with urgency incontinence, and common behavioral strategies for managing incontinence emphasize relaxation and slow breathing at the time of an urgency episode, paced respiration may also be useful in treating urgency incontinence and/or decreasing its burden on quality of life. We propose to conduct a 6-week pilot randomized controlled trial of slow paced respiration using the RESPeRATE device among 30 women with urgency incontinence to assess the feasibility of recruiting and teaching women to use the RESPeRATE device as well as to gather preliminary data on the efficacy of slow paced respiration for treatment of urgency incontinence and related symptoms. Participants will complete a 7-day voiding diary and complete questionnaires to measure outcome.

This is a clinical investigation approved by US FDA and Canadian Health Authority to study the safety and potential effectiveness of the autologous muscle cells for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence.

This study is a multi-center, global study that will assess the effectiveness and patient satisfaction of the male incontinence sling 12 months after implant as well as the safety profile of the product.

The primary purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of Bulkamid® in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) in adult women who have SUI or stress predominant mixed incontinence

Over 11 million women in the United States suffer from stress urinary incontinence (SUI), the involuntary leakage of urine during routine physical activities such as laughing, coughing, exercising, or sneezing. SUI affects women of all ages and can result in significant emotional distress. The purpose of this study is to evaluate a non-surgical, investigational treatment intended to reduce or eliminate urine leakage due to stress urinary incontinence.

To evaluate the overall response to desmopressin treatment among previously untreated enuretic children aged 5-15 years after 3 and 6 months of treatment. To investigate the influence of possible predictive factors on response after 3 and 6 months of treatment. To evaluate the proportion of patients achieving dryness. To evaluate the long-term safety profile of oral desmopressin in children with primary nocturnal enuresis.

To evaluate the preference of subjects for Minirin® oral lyophilisate treatment compared with Minirin® tablet treatment after 6 weeks. To compare efficacy of the 2 formulations at the end of the 6-week treatment period using diary card data. To compare ease of use of both formulations at 3 and 6 weeks using a VAS-scale. To validate a PNE Quality of Life (QoL) questionnaire. To evaluate safety. To compare compliance with the 2 formulations

To assess the level of improvement in voiding function after lumbar to sacral ventral nerve re-routing procedure in Spinal Cord Injury and spina bifida patients

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a minimally invasive surgical procedure in up to 160 implanted female patients in which two adjustable balloons (one on each side of the urethra) are implanted to treat urinary stress incontinence. The results will be analyzed to demonstrate the effects of the device as well as its associated risks. Therapeutic success will be based on whether the patients demonstrate at least a one-grade (mean) reduction in the Stamey score at 12 months.
