Active clinical trials for "Urinary Bladder, Overactive"

The use of vaginal estrogen cream in conjunction with Toviaz will be more effective than the use of Toviaz alone for the treatment of overactive bladder.

Hypothesis: Objective 1: To advance the investigators understanding on the effect of solifenacin succinate (10 mg OD) vs. fesoterodine (8mg OD) on urinary urgency using a validated Urgency Severity and Impact Questionnaire (USIQ). Hypothesis 1.1: The severity of urgency symptoms as measured by USIQ will change differently in women with OAB following a 3 month treatment with solifenacin succinate (10 mg OD) vs. fesoterodine (8mg OD). Hypothesis 2.1: Condition-specific quality of life (QOL) as measured by USIQ will change differently in women with OAB following a 3 month treatment with solifenacin succinate (10 mg OD) vs. fesoterodine (8mg OD). Objective 2: To advance the investigators understanding on the adverse events (AE's) of solifenacin succinate (10 mg OD) vs. fesoterodine (8mg OD). Hypothesis 1.1: The severity and rate of AE's in women with OAB following a 3 month of treatment with solifenacin succinate (10 mg OD) vs. fesoterodine (8mg OD) will be different.

Recent phase III trials have confirmed the efficacy and safety of mirabegron in the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) in Europeans, Australians, North Americans, Japanese and Asians. Whether mirabegron 25mg or 50mg should be used as the first line treatment for OAB has not been determined yet. The dose effectiveness relationship between 25mg and 50mg mirabegron has also not been investigated yet. Hence, investigators have conducted this post marketing study in order to evaluate the efficacy and safety between mirabegron 25mg and 50mg in Taiwanese people with symptoms of OAB.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a self-therapeutic approach of skin adhesive low-level light therapy (LLLT) in females with Overactive Bladder (OAB) and Urinary Incontinence (UI)

The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate a new medical device treatment for Overactive Bladder (OAB) in women.

Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a collective term referring to disorders which is characterized by lower urinary tract symptoms, including bladder pain/discomfort, frequent urination without evidence of bacterial infection. The etiology of IC/BPS is still uncertain, and most current treatment for IC/BPS are only symptoms control. Our previous study revealed Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection presented in the IC/BPS bladders and involved the pathogenesis. Hence, using anti-viral medication valacyclovir for the patients with IC/BPS might have clinical efficacy.

The hypothesis of the present study is low intensity extracorporeal low energy shock wave therapy (LiESWT) can decrease inflammatory disorders, increase pelvic floor blood supply, enhanced bladder stem cell activation, Using LiESWT can decrease bladder overactivity, eliminate urinary incontinence and improve stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms. Therefore improve quality of life and improve social activity.

Null hypothesis of the trial is that there is no difference between solifenacin and oxybutynin with respect to efficacy, side effects, patient satisfaction and quality of life measures in patients with overactive bladder.

The researchers investigated the effectiveness and safety of BoNT/A injected into the detrusor muscle in patients with PD and MSA all of whom had detrusor muscle overactivity unresponsive to conventional medical therapy.

Urethral dilatation is a commonly undertaken intervention for a variety of urinary complaints including overactive bladder symptoms. There is however very little evidence for its efficacy, and no randomized trial evidence. The aim of this study is to ascertain the effect of urethral dilatation on overactive bladder symptoms and on voiding parameters. The null hypothesis is that there will be no difference in symptoms or voiding parameters between the urethral dilatation and sham groups. Eligible women will be assessed initially with a history and examination, a King's Health Questionnaire and Bristol Female Urinary Tract Symptoms (BFLUTS) questionnaire and pressure flow studies. They will be randomized to undergo either cystoscopy alone or cystoscopy and urethral dilatation. Patients will be blinded to the procedure undertaken and randomized using a series of opaque envelopes. Follow up will be at 6 weeks with repeat questionnaires and pressure flow studies. Subjective and objective outcomes will be compared between the two groups.
