Active clinical trials for "Enuresis"

The purpose of this study is to obtain surgical technique data for use in physician education and training and to collect early clinical outcomes data for future publication.

A study to evaluate solifenacin succinate in combination with tamsulosin for the treatment of residual OAB symptoms in men.

The primary aim of this clinical trial is to compare the treatment success for two surgical procedures that are frequently used and have similar cure rates, yet have not been compared directly to each other in a large, rigorously conducted randomized trial. The secondary aims of the trial are to compare other outcomes for the two surgical procedures, including quality of life, sexual function, satisfaction with treatment outcomes, complications, and need for other treatment(s)after surgery. Follow-up will be a minimum of two years and up to four years.

The investigators have performed colposacropexy in women with uterovaginal prolapse for many years with satisfactory results. This study was designed to compare whether, in the treatment of patients with uro-genital prolapse and urinary incontinence, the addition of a contemporary anti-incontinence procedure such as mini-sling is associated with a reduction of post-operative urinary incontinence (correction of pre-existent urinary incontinence and prevention of masked urinary incontinence).

Incontinence is one of the most common complications of radical prostatectomy. The continence rate is not significantly improved even by robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP). However, some reports suggested that posterior reconstruction (PR) behind vesicourethral anastomosis could improve early recovery of continence during open, laparoscopic or robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. But, recent prospective studies reported no benefit of PR after RALP, which was the opposite result of those of previous studies. However the PR techniques used in these prospective studies seem to be quite different from the previous techniques. They seem to have used single-step PR, which opposes the median dorsal fibrous raphe (MDFR) only to the Denonvilliers' fascia (DF). By contrast, the original technique incorporated additional reconstruction between the MDFR and the posterior bladder wall 1-2 cm from the new bladder neck. Our group identified this anatomic structure as the posterior counterpart of the detrusor apron (PDA). The PDA is a strong, thick functional tissue containing muscle that is more appropriate for pulling and fixing the MDFR than the DF. As such, we hypothesized that the key proximal structure for PR is not DF, but rather PDA. Furthermore, single-step reconstruction between MDFR and PDA could be enough for PR. We previously investigated whether our new PR technique, which entails opposition of the MDFR solely to the PDA, would improve continence recovery compared with the standard RALP technique without PR. And our retrospective study demonstrated that this new PR technique during RALP significantly shortens the time to the recovery of continence compared with the standard technique, which does not incorporate PR (Int J Urol, 2012;19:683-7). Thus, we plan to validate this result by a well-designed, prospective, randomized controlled study.

This is a prospective randomized controlled trail to assess early urinary continence recovery rates after robotic assisted radical prostatectomy when a posterior rhabdosphincter reconstruction is performed or not. A hundred forty-six patients with clinically localized and histological confirmed prostate cancer will be enrolled. Continence recovery is defined in the present study as declared urinary continence (absence of incontinence episodes) in the physician interview as no pad use. Continence rates will be explored also by EPIC, ICIQ-SF, IPSS questionnaires 1, 6 and 12 months after the procedure. The sexual function as the secondary objective will be assessed by SHIM questionnaire.

The aim of our study is to assess the value of concomitant surgical correction of asymptomatic grade II anterior vaginal wall prolapse with the placement of midurethral sling for treatment of female patients with stress incontinence

An intervention consisting of group and home based exercise will be used over 6 months to assess whether this is helpful in managing urinary incontinence in elderly village women in Bangladesh. This intervention, supplemented by education about managing incontinence, will be used in half the villages in the trial. In the other half women will receive only the education component.

This double-blind randomized controlled trial seeks to find a better treatment for women with mixed urinary incontinence (both stress and urgency incontinence). The primary aim is to determine whether midurethral sling surgery combined with injections of onabotulinumtoxinA (Botox®) into the detrusor muscle of the bladder improves symptoms of mixed urinary incontinence better than sling surgery alone.

The pre-pubic approach of the tension free vaginal sling placement is a new approach in the treatment of SUI. The retropubic approach of the tension free vaginal sling is the standard method of device delivery; in addition a suprapubic and a transobturator approach are alternative methods of delivery. All of these delivery approach systems are intended to place the mesh "tension free" in the mid-urethra. There are currently no studies that investigate the pre-pubic delivery approach in the United States. However, the largest series of cases in Europe using the pre-pubic system was done by Ulmsten (published in the European Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Reproductive Biology) 107 (2003) 205-207, titled " Pre-Pubic tension free vaginal tape application: an alternative to classic tension free vaginal tape application in selected patients with SUI." The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of using a pre-pubic approach to the placement of a mid-urethral vaginal mesh. Demonstrate the mesh can be properly placed in the mid-urethra using a pre-pubic approach; Assess the performance of the delivery device by measuring the ease of use, technical complexity, and instrument difficulties
