Active clinical trials for "Enuresis"

The purpose of this study is to determine if addition of a handout to the standard consent process for the trans-obturator tape (TOT) mid-urethral sling procedure will improve patients' understanding, recall and satisfaction with their procedure. The information provided in the handout will include the procedure details, the accompanying risks and benefits, as well as the expectations and alternatives to the TOT procedure. The aim of the investigators is to improve and standardize the current process for surgical consent for patients undergoing a mid-urethral sling procedure, specifically the TOT. The investigators hypothesize that addition of a handout will improve patient's preoperative comprehension by an absolute value of 10% compared to the standard consent process. The investigators further hypothesize that the handout will improve patient satisfaction and recall of the surgical procedure details post operatively.

The aim of this study is to estimate the amount of extra urine produced by natural diuresis during 20-minute pad test, and assess the effect of diuresis on the accuracy of using 20-minute pad test to estimate the severity of SUI. Besides, the above results may be used for further refinement of the amount of water infusion used for the 20-minute pad test.

Urinary incontinence is well documented as a comorbidity of obesity. Studies demonstrate improvement of incontinency after weight loss. However, the mechanisms are still not clear. Aim of our study to analyze the effects of bariatric surgery on pelvic floor function in women.

Prospective, single-arm, non-sponsored, observational single centre trial in a cohort of patients undergoing stress urinary incontinence surgery with ALTIS® procedure. All patients were diagnosed according to clinical reports, physical exploration and urodynamics. Body mass index(BMI) was categorized according to World Health Organization classification. Valsalva leak point pressure was categorized in three groups <60 cmH2O, 60-90 cmH2O and >90 cmH2O). Participants were evaluated post-operatively at 1, 6, 12 and 24 months with physical examination, ICIQ-SF, visual scale of satisfaction(SVS)(0-10). Adverse events were reported in each visit. Multivariate analysis for risk factors of surgery failure was performed.

The aim of our study is to examine the effect of prolapse surgery on voiding. Our study is the very first one to combine several innovative low-invasive and low-cost methods to analyse the amelioration or deterioration of voiding function after surgery for pelvic organ prolapse using 3D/4D translabial ultrasound, home-uroflowmetry and patient reported quality of life outcomes.

Urinary incontinence (UI) is a frequent problem in community-dwelling older adults and has a huge burden on health complications and healthcare costs. Although effective treatments exist, UI is frequently neglected resulting in unmet needs for continence treatment and potential negative health outcomes. The impact of UI in older patients receiving home care services has not been extensively explored. In a recent study we observed that UI was identified in 46% of 699 patients followed by the "Fondation des Services d'Aide et de Soins à Domicile" in Geneva but the impact of UI on outcome such as institutionalization, hospitalization or death is unknown.

A novel sensor (a device named sensurine)was developed in the aim of real- time measurement of bladder volume. The sensurine device is a wearable, fully passive, non-invasive and compact heat flow sensor (patent pending) and electronic control unit. The device will serve as a tool for managing and treating bladder dysfunction (by behavioral treatment), such as overactive bladder without incontinence, urge incontinence and voiding difficulties. In this phase I of the clinical trial the sensor unit will be tested for technological feasibility demonstration and for collecting design data.

The purpose of this study if to demonstrate if post-prostatectomy incontinence is a barrier to sexual satisfaction/frequency/desire and if surgical correction of incontinence will improve these aspects of sexual health.

This study is designed to evaluate men before radical prostatectomy for the incidence of Overactive Bladder (OAB), as well as urge urine incontinence (UUI) development after the surgery. Patients will be evaluated for signs of OAB and for signs of Bladder Outlet Obstruction (BOO). Afterwards they will be divided into four observational groups. Follow up period is designed to be 12 months.

The aim of this study was to identify the serial changes in lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), urine flow and bladder voiding efficiency after transobturator tape (TOT) surgery for treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.
