Active clinical trials for "Urinary Incontinence, Stress"

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is the most common form of urinary incontinence in women. It affects women in their quality of life : physical, social, sexual and psychological levels. International recommendations suggest conservative treatments as first-line by training the pelvic floor muscles with or without a biofeedback-type control system. The latter allows the patient to visualize her muscle activity while stimulating her motivation. The part of adherence and compliance is very important in this rehabilitation where the woman must provide a significant commitment to continue the exercises beyond the support of the physiotherapist. In this area, a new approach is emerging with the arrival of health applications on smartphones. However, these tools lack scientific validation. The objective of this mixed pilot study (randomized controlled study with a qualitative part) is to investigate a new treatment for middle-aged to advanced patients outside the period of peripartum suffering from SUI, through an application mobile with probe as home program in standard physiotherapist treatment.

The investigators aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of periurethral hypertonic saline (10% NaCl) injection for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and stress-predominant mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) in women.

The purpose of this study is to assess the overall effectiveness of the Ajust Adjustable Single-Incision Sling in the surgical treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.

The purpose of this pilot clinical study is to determine if intrasphincteric autologous myoblast injections in combination with electrical stimulation are safe and effective in treating stress urinary incontinence, confirming the optimal dose and assessing tolerability of the procedure.

This is a clinical trial to study the safety and effectiveness of Autologous Muscle Derived Cells for Urinary Sphincter Repair (AMDC-USR) for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI).

The surgical treatment of vulvar cancer is characterized by a radical approach as standard, often associated to an important rate of functional complications. This surgery often includes the partial excision of urethra, resulting in a reduction of urethral closure pressure. The radiotherapy-induced fibrosis in addiction leads to a reduction of urethral mobility. As consequence women treated for vulvar cancer may develop urinary incontinence. The incidence of this complication has been differently reported, but seems to reach the 100%. Poor data are available regarding the treatment of post vulvectomy urinary incontinence and no clear indication may be given at regards. Based on these considerations the aim of this trial will be to compare tension free vaginal tape and bulking agent injection in women with urinary stress incontinence developed after radical surgery for vulvar cancer.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment of female stress urinary incontinence using a web-based programme is effective.

Stress urinary incontinence is a frequent condition that can be caused by urethral sphincter insufficiency and results in a dramatic deterioration of the quality of life. We developed a new therapeutic strategy for stress urinary incontinence based on the implantation myofibers with their satellite cells in the urethra. The aim of this procedure is to generate functional tissue acting like a new sphincter in the urethra

Urinary incontinence (UI) is the complaint of any involuntary leakage of urine. Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is the complaint of involuntary leakage on effort or exertion, or on sneezing or coughing. The prevalence of female UI is greater than that of male, and the commonest type is SUI. UI has significant impact on the quality of life including physical, mental and social issues. SUI may also lead to withdraw from regular physical exercise and fitness activities that important in the prevention of osteoporosis, coronary heart disease, and so on. The cause of SUI is related to the impairment of pelvic floor muscles (PFM). So far, the effects of intensive pelvic floor muscle training for female SUI were proved in many randomized controlled trials. However, training of accurate contraction of PFM depends on vaginal palpation. The willingness to seek for medical help may be reduced due to being embarrassed with vaginal palpation. Sapsford proposed a concept to treat SUI via transversus abdominis (TrA) that does not need to palpate the vagina. Maybe the new intervention can promote the willingness to seek medical help. However, to date there is no randomized controlled trial comparing the effect of indirect training of the PFM via TrA with either untreated control or other intervention. Therefore, there are two purposes in this study, to compare the effect of indirect training of PFM via TrA with control group and to compare the effect of indirect training of PFM via TrA with PFMT for female SUI.
