Active clinical trials for "Enuresis"

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship among sagittal spinal curvatures, mobility, and low back pain in women with and without urinary incontinence.

This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized comparative study in which patients are randomized to one of four different bladder volumes and a Cough Stress Test (CST) is performed in both the standing and sitting positions. The goal is to assess the agreement of each CST method with both urodynamics diagnosis of Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) and the 24-hour pad test. The primary outcome is to determine what CST method best correlated with either test in the diagnosis of SUI.

Urge urinary incontinence can be a disorder caused by destroyed pelvic structures. We repaired the uteri-sacral ligaments (USL) by cesa or vasa. The study evaluates if solifenacin can lead to continence after surgery or if also the pubo-urethral ligaments (PUL) need to be repaired.

Urinary incontinence (involuntary leakage of urine) is an extremely common, distressing and socially disabling condition. It is known to affect up to 14 % of the adult female population in the United Kingdom. Sufferers tend to become social recluses, not wanting to socialise for fear of embarrassment and ridicule. It typically takes up to 5 years from the onset of symptoms for a patient to admit their problem, seek help and reach a specialist. Unfortunately, it is commonest in the elderly when the incidence is as high as 50% in some studies. Furthermore, this group of patients are the least likely to seek help, the least likely to receive help and up until recently the least likely to be cured of their problems. Things are improving however, as everyone is more prepared to talk about this awful condition rather than accept it as a part of growing old. Furthermore, better treatments are becoming available which can help the old as well as the young. Two years ago a new operation for urinary leakage was launched in the United Kingdom (UK). This is a smaller operation than those previously available and more suitable for the frail and elderly. We, the researchers at South Glasgow University Hospital, have been using this operation for 18 months with good success. Several versions however are now on the market, some much more expensive than the original, and perhaps not as good. We need to know which one is best and hence we intend to do a study to find out. We aim to select patients with leakage to have one or the other operation and to follow the patients over several years to find out which operation is best, safest, lasts longest and is most acceptable to patients. Only then will we know which of the versions of this procedure we should be offering our patients.

Randomized comparison of two surgeries for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.

This study aims to evaluate the correlation of the ultrasonic functional length of the urethra and the incontinence urinary disorder (IUD). The goal is to predict the severity of the IU by measuring new static and dynamic ultrasound parameters of the urethra.

The researchers investigated whether endoscopic retrograde urethral interventions applied for various reasons after radical prostatectomy (RP) operation cause a change in urinary incontinence (UI) level, and if there is a change, whether it changes according to the endoscopic procedure time and the endoscopic instrument used.

Clinical and paraclinical appraisal of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is mainly based on the assessment of pelvic floor muscles (PFM) contraction and urethral mobility, the measurement of the maximum urethral closure pressure (MUCP) at rest by urethral pressure profilometry (UPP) and the measurement of the Valsalva leak point pressure (VLPP). Currently, MUCP and VLPP cannot be used for diagnosing SUI because they appear to be moderately correlated with the severity of SUI. The lack of a specific SUI biomarker could be the explanation for the poor predictive value of urodynamics and the ongoing debate on whether urodynamic testing before surgery has benefits. Our main objective was to study the value of a new urodynamic parameter in the diagnosis of female SUI: the Valsalva urethral profile (VUP)

This study evaluates the action of the pelvic floor muscle training with and without EMG Biofeddback in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence in menopausal, peri and post menopausal women and their quality of life before and after the interventions.

A trial to answer the debatabal question about the role of urodynamic study in surgical treatment for stress urinary incontinence.
