Active clinical trials for "Urinary Bladder Diseases"

The purpose of this study is to compare outcomes of patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy before and after a laparoscopic training curriculum was implemented.

This study is a single-arm, open-label, single-center study to assess the safety of tislelizumab with BCG, and to obtain the preliminary efficacy results in subjects who have been diagnosed with high-risk NMIBC without prior BCG treatment.

The aim of this study is to compare 3D-laparoscopy versus 2D-laparoscopy with the use of HD resolution in cholecystectomy in terms of error rating, performance time and subjective assessment.

We try to assess the potential role of telomerase reverse transcriptase and MicroRNA (miR-155) in diagnosis of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer and their correlation with stage and grade of the tumor.

NIRS technology is therefore a technique that exploits the different absorption properties of oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin to evaluate the degree of tissue oxygenation. This hemodynamic response is measured in a completely non-invasive and silent manner, by the simple emission of light passing through different layers of biological tissue. In the literature, some studies concerning the use of the NIRS method for the study of urodynamics exist. They seem to show a correlation between the data of the urodynamic assessment and the data obtained with the NIRS method. Certain trends seem to be repeated with, for example, an increase in oxyhemoglobin at the beginning of the filling phase and the beginning of the urination phase. The aim of the study is to analyze the NIRS signal and find correlation with urodynamic data.

The goal of this project is to improve patient experience of cystoscopy using a non-pharmacologic modification of procedure. Cystoscopy is a common outpatient procedure for urology patients and is usually performed without sedation. However, there is limited research into reduction of patient discomfort throughout this procedure. The proposed modification technique was selected based on a well-documented psychological phenomenon in which only particular moments over the course of an aversive event determine the resultant perception of the experience. It is hypothesized that implementation of the technique will decrease the recalled pain intensity of the cystoscopy.

Heart rate variability (HRV) is an important indicator of cardiac autonomic function and predictor of cardiac mortality and of all-cause mortality. In this study the investigators examined changes of the HRV in patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) undergoing botulinum neurotoxin type A intradetrusor injections (BoNT/A).

A study to understand the impact of Betmiga® on patients quality of life, satisfaction with treatment, how long patients remain on treatment, patterns of healthcare resource utilisation, and safety as prescribed by the physicians in routine clinical practice.

This study will assess the impact of a systematic bladder health screening and disease education regimen as well as the implementation of a referral process on the quality of life of multiple sclerosis patients with bladder dysfunction.

Evaluate MRI criteria for involvement of the posterior inferior wall of the bladder in patients with endometrial bladder disease.
