Active clinical trials for "Urinary Bladder, Overactive"

This study was a multicentre, quasi-experimental design, controlled, before-and-after trial to estimate the effectiveness related to the review of mirabegron use and, if appropriate, its discontinuation. Intervention group: Patients with mirabegron prescription assigned to any of the 17 primary health care centers (PHC) located in the northern area of Barcelona. Control group: All the other patients assigned to any of the other 34 health care centers in Barcelona belonging to the Catalan Institut of Health (CIH). The structured intervention included initiatives with general practitioners and urologists/gynaecologists, management support from health care authorities, and monthly feed-back monitoring to general practitioners (GPs). The follow-up period was 12 months, from January 1st to December 31st, 2017.

Researchers in this study want to learn about the safety of drug BAY1817080 at different doses and the resulting blood levels of the study drug in Japanese healthy adult male participants. Study drug BAY1817080 is a drug under development with a goal to suppress pain and chronic cough. It works by binding to and blocking proteins expressed on the sensory nerves of the womb tissue, bladder or airway which are oversensitive in the patients with endometriosis (a condition where the tissue that usually grows inside the womb grows outside of the womb), overactive bladder (a condition that causes a sudden urge to urinate often or more frequently) and long-standing cough with or without clear causes. Participants in this study will receive either the study drug or placebo tablets (a placebo looks like the test drug but does not have any medicine in it). The dosage will be either one single dose of study drug/placebo received on only one day or multiple doses of study drug/placebo received twice daily for 13 days plus one dose in the morning of the 14th day. The total study duration for each participant will be usually no more than 42 days. Blood samples will be collected from the participants to monitor the safety and measure the blood level of the study drug.

Multiple studies have shown that education based on the IMB model is effective at bringing about health-related behavior change. The IMB model was found to be effective in developing healthy behaviors aimed at maintaining heart health, providing behavior to prevent smoking addiction, diabetes management, correct nutrition in iron deficiency anemia, and using condoms to prevent HIV. There are no studies in the literature regarding the adaptation of the IMB model to behavioral therapy in patients with OAB or urinary incontinence. To address this, there we aimed to investigate the effect of the IMB model on urinary incontinence and quality of life in men with OAB.

Fesoterodine (Toviaz™) extended-release (ER) tablets are currently manufactured by Aesica Pharmaceuticals, Zwickau, Germany (Zwickau). An additional manufacturing location at Pfizer Freiburg, Germany (Freiburg) has been identified. This pivotal bioequivalence (BE) study is being conducted to satisfy the United States (US) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulatory requirements for the qualification of the Freiburg manufacturing site. Overall Study Design This is an open-label, randomized, single-dose, 4-period, 4-treatment, 2-sequence, two 2-way crossover study in healthy participants. This study will assess the BE of Fesoterodine (Toviaz™) 4 mg and 8 mg ER tablets manufactured at Zwickau (Reference) versus Freiburg (Test). Study participants will include healthy male and/or female individuals between the ages of 18 and 55 years, inclusive. Approximately 18 participants who fulfill entry criteria will be randomized to 1 of the 2 treatment sequences as shown in the table below.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of red clover isoflavones in postmenopausal women with and without urge urinary incontinence and overactive bladder

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of mirabegron oral suspension after single dose administration in children with neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) or overactive bladder (OAB). This study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability as well as the acceptability and palatability of mirabegron oral suspension after single dose administration in children with NDO or OAB.

Hypothesis:the effect of bladdertraining in groups for patients with OAB (overactive bladder syndrome) equals the effect of bladdertraining individually for patients with overactive bladder. The effect of the training is measured in a 3 dimensional scope by the means of 3 primary outcome measures used in the statistical evaluation. Symptoms of OAB (either (1)urgencyepisodes or (2)urgencyincontinence) and (3)quality of life (VAS score).

Sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) implantation is a minimally invasive procedure which has current FDA approval for urinary urge incontinence, urgency-frequency syndrome and non-obstructive urinary retention, and has been available in the United States since 1997. The SNS delivers non-painful, mild electrical pulses to the sacral nerves to modulate the reflexes that influence the bladder, sphincter, and pelvic floor to improve or restore normal voiding function. While SNS has been shown to have efficacy for the aforementioned conditions, the exact mechanism of action is unknown, but it is believed to work primarily through the somatic afferent system in promoting inhibitory reflex pathways to facilitate urine storage. The degree of stimulation is thought to be at a level that only evokes a sensory and not a motor response; however this has not been tested.

This bioequivalence (BE) study is to satisfy FDA regulatory requirements for extended releases drug product transfer from Zwickau, Germany to Vega Baja, Puerto-Rico.

Many women have the need to run to the restroom frequently during the night and day, a condition called "overactive bladder". Embarrassing urinary leakage is also commonly associated with these symptoms. The investigators believe the primary cause in most cases is the bladder muscle contracting too frequently but are still not sure exactly why this happens and if it is triggered by factors in the environment. When bladder testing using pressure catheters ("urodynamics") is done these bladder contractions are often not picked up, even in women with overactive bladder. This may be partly due to the unnatural environment in which the testing is done without the presence of the usual visual or audible triggers, such as running water or seeing a toilet. The investigators propose adding an audiovisual stimulant to the usual bladder testing to see if this makes it more likely for bladder contractions to happen. One group of patients would have the usual bladder testing as part of their normal care. The other group would receive the normal care in addition to hearing a water fountain in the room and watching a video of things that may trigger overactive bladder symptoms; seeing public restroom signs in a mall, a toilet bowl being lowered and a kitchen sink with water running over dishes. The suspicion is that the proportion of patients in whom bladder contractions are seen will be higher for those with audiovisual triggers compared to those with the usual care. Women with overactive bladder or leakage with urge who are sent for urodynamics by their doctor will be asked if they wish to participate in the study.
