Active clinical trials for "Pelvic Pain"

This is an observational, exploratory study designed to collect (record) and analyze normal and abnormal sound data from the human bladder during surgery using a novel sensor-based catheter system (Electronic Catheter Stethoscope) and to develop algorithms to detect changes of baseline bladder and ureteral function. The Electronic Catheter Stethoscope device will measure acoustic and pressure data within the bladder. The measurements will be used to detect any leakage from the bladder and/or changes in baseline ureteral flow by correlation of sound data with surgical data reported by the surgeon. These data will be used to develop algorithms to detect changes of baseline bladder and ureteral function. The algorithms will be tested in future clinical trials.

Summary: Main Objective: to evaluate the efficacy of pelvic gonadal vein embolization with coils in treatment of pelvic congestion syndrome Methods: retrospective study included 25 patients in the University hospital of Brest. The Primary Outcome Measure: To evaluate (to measure) pain relief using visual analogous scale (VAS) before and after gonadal vein embolization for pelvic congestion syndrome The Secondary Outcome Measures were to assess the impact of the treatment on specific and general symptoms through a survey.

Our aim was to evaluate the efficacy of examining endometrial biopsy specimens for nerve fibers as a diagnostic test for endometriosis and endometrioma in a double-blind comparison with diagnostic laparoscopy.

It is a retrospective observational study based on the analysis of the medical records of patients treated for chronic pelvic pain and benign gynecological pathologies at the Gynecology Unit of the University Hospital of Modena from 2010 to 2019. The aim of the study is to analyze the effects of medical and surgical treatments on chronic pelvic pain and associated pathologies.

This is a cross-sectional observational study. For participants resident in Adelaide, South Australia. The study consists of 3 visits to the Pain and Anaesthesia Research Clinic (PARC), within the Royal Adelaide Hospital (RAH). A total of 56 participants will be recruited for this study.

This is a prospective, Single time point, discovery study intending to identify biomarkers that can differentiate endometriosis from other underlying reasons for pelvic pain. Patients undergoing laparoscopy for evaluation of chronic pelvic pain or elective tubal ligation will be enrolled for collection of tissue samples at the time of laparoscopy.

The purpose of this study is to establish the range of pelvic floor pressure in groups of women, including women with and without pelvic pain, and compare the change in perineometer measurements between rest and maximum pelvic floor contraction in women with and without pelvic pain. Purpose is also to determine whether resting pelvic floor perineometer measurements correlate with the severity of pain symptoms in women with chronic pelvic pain.

This research is being done to learn more about the bacteria that live in the genito-urinary tract in subjects with urologic chronic pelvic pain syndrome (UCPPS).

Adenomyosis is a disease where ectopic endometrial glands affect the muscular wall of the uterus. Women that suffer from dysmenorrhea or infertility caused by adenomyosis need to confirm or rule out adenomyosis, and therefore tools for non-histologic confirmation of adenomyosis are indubitably required. Transvaginal ultrasound has been shown to be useful in diagnosing adenomyosis, but the interpretation of findings requires significant expertise in ultrasound and experience with diagnosing adenomyosis. This is because adenomyosis shows a very heterogeneous appearance in ultrasound. There are many different diagnostic signs that have to be considered and weighed. In a previous study, the investigators have developed a diagnostic algorithm that helps clinicians diagnose adenomyosis with transvaginal ultrasound and a clinical examination. It showed good diagnostic accuracy and seemed to be very robust with regards to artifacts and experience of the examiner. It is now necessary to validate this prediction model in a new, prospective study so it can be used in clinical practice.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the psychosocial factors in women with chronic pelvic pain are predisposing, precipitant or maintenance factors, and relate these factors with central sensitization and dysfunctional pain.
