Sacral Nerve Stimulation to Treat Urgency Urinary Incontinence With Wireless Neuromodulation
Urinary IncontinenceUrgeThe purpose of this pivotal study is to illustrate the safety and effectiveness of the StimGuard Sacral Nerve Stimulation (SNS) System in the treatment refractory urge incontinence. This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center, study in which 92 subjects will receive a StimGuard SNS System.
To Use the Combined Version of ICIQ-SF and Quality of Life Scale in Mixed Urinary Incontinence
IncontinenceUrge2 moreThe goal of this observational study is detecting the dominant component of mixed urinary incontinence via a combined version of ICIQ-SF and quality of life scale. The main question it aims to answer is: 1. Which component (urgency or stress) urinary incontinence bothers the patient more?

Comparing Approaches to Treat Older Adult Women's Urge Incontinence: Pilot Feasibility and Randomized...
Urinary IncontinenceUrge1 moreThe purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility of conducting a pilot randomized controlled trial comparing mindfulness-based stress reduction with the health enhancement program on symptoms of urinary urge incontinence in older adult women, and to establish preliminary efficacy of these two approaches on symptoms of urinary urge incontinence.
Incontinence & Intimate Partners: Assessing the Contribution of Treatment
Urge Urinary IncontinenceUrge urinary incontinence (UUI) is a socially debilitating disease due to its inherently unpredictable nature and sometimes large volumes of urine loss. Women with UUI may experience anxiety over public episodes of incontinence and concerns about odor and, as a result, isolate themselves socially. This isolation affects both partners in the relationship and may be a source of discord. The impact of UUI also moves into personal relationships where fears or actual episodes of incontinence during physical intimacy, including but limited to intercourse, may result in limited interactions and changes in the relationship satisfaction for both partners. Few studies have examined the role of urinary incontinence, particularly UUI, in the dynamics of an intimate partner relationship and none have evaluated the impact of successful UUI treatment. The long-term goal of our research is to understand the social and emotional impact of pelvic floor disorders, particularly UUI, on the well-being of an intimate relationship. Ultimately, we aim to evaluate the role that successful treatment plays in the alleviation of discord in intimate partner relationships that are affected by UUI and other pelvic floor disorders. Our objective for this proposal is to characterize, using validated, quantifiable methods the quality of the relationship in couples affected by UUI and to identify the role that treatment plays in improving this relationship. Our central hypothesis is that UUI has a negative impact upon the emotional and physical well-being of a relationship and that effective treatment will result in improvement in areas of the relationship that have been detrimentally affected by UUI. Our rationale for this study is that an understanding of UUI in the context of a couple, particularly from the perspective of the male partner, will improve our ability to holistically treat UUI, thus improving patient outcomes and satisfaction.

InterStim Therapy Programming Study
Urgency FrequencyUrinary Urge IncontinenceThis study assessed the effect of different InterStim rate settings on voiding diary outcomes. Specifically, the study evaluated how 3 different rate settings affected the number of urinary incontinent episodes per day collected through a voiding diary. The study also evaluated how the 3 different rate settings affected other voiding diary measures including number of voids per day, degree of urgency before each void, number of pads used per day, and number of fecal incontinent episodes, questionnaires, and adverse events.
Pharmacological vs Surgical Treatment for Mixed Incontinence
Mixed Urinary IncontinenceUrinary Incontinence3 moreIn patients with symptoms of mixed incontinence (loss of urine associated with coughing/sneezing/laughing, and loss of urine associated with the strong urge to void), is surgical treatment with tension free vaginal tape or pharmacological treatment with tolterodine more effective? What are the parameters predictive of success or failure with either forms of treatment? What are the parameters predictive of the necessity for further treatment after primary treatment? Patients will be randomised to having surgical or pharmacological treatment for their mixed incontinence symptoms. They will be assessed subjectively and objectively pre-treatment and after treatment at intervals up to 3 months.
