Active clinical trials for "Urinary Incontinence"

To analyze biofilm obtained from at least 10 Subjects who have an indwelling catheter. A 30cc urine sample would also be collected from the same subject, and analyzed.

This study will evaluate the impact of BOTOX® treatment on anticholinergic drug use in patients with urinary incontinence from Neurogenic Detrusor Overactivity (NDO) due to spinal injury or Multiple Sclerosis (MS) who are prescribed BOTOX® as standard of care in clinical practice.

The goal of this project is to evaluate the applicability of non-invasive optical imaging for the measurement of brain function during investigation of the lower urinary tract.

The purpose of this study is to improve spasticity diagnosis through exploration of potential new diagnostic markers for spasticity that can assist in diagnosis and referral.

Purpose Urogenital Distress Inventory-6 (UDI-6), Incontinence Impact Questionnaire-7 (IIQ-7) and The International Consultation on Incontinence (ICIQ-SF) Short Form are used to diagnose individuals with urinary incontinence (UI) and to assess the impact of the dysfunction on patient quality of life. While ICIQ-SF has fixed cutoff values - UDI-6 and IIQ-7 do not. We aimed to find the cutoff scores for UDI-6 and IIQ-7 in women with UI. Methods The study involved 205 women aged between 31 and 83 years - 155 with, and 50 without UI symptoms. All participants completed all three questionnaires: ICIQ-SF, UDI-6 and IIQ-7. Patients were categorized according to their ICIQ-SF scores, as symptomatic ICIQ-SF ≥6 (n=134) and asymptomatic ICIQ < 6 (n=60). The Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curve was used to test how well UDI-6 allowed a discrimination between patients suffering from UI and those who do not. AUC (Area under Curve) statistic was calculated to measure the UDI-6 and IIQ-7 Total Score efficiency.

The investigators aim to perform cognitive interviews to assess how pelvic floor disorders impact sexual functioning in women who have sex with women (WSW). As a secondary objective there will be cognitive interviews to assess perceptions of sexual function questionnaires such as Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire-IUGA Revised (PISQ-IR) in WSW.

The objective is to validate the use of ultrasound measurements (urethral mobility, movement of the ano-rectal angle, elastography measurements) in women with urinary incontiennce before and after pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) : inter and intra-observer reproducibility; correlation with clinical examination (modified Oxford scale); sensitivity to change before/after pelvic floor muscle training

Lower urinary tract symptoms is quite frequent in men and women. To better understand the the symptoms that characterize lower urinary tract, the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) has established the Symptoms of Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction Research Network (LURN). In this study we aim to validate the LURN-29 score to Turkish language

This is a single-centered, prospective, longitudinal, observational cohort study of patients with MS who suffer from lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and are refractory to two prior treatment modalities who have elected to pursue PTNS therapy for LUTS.

Robotic approach to sacral colpopexy is a relatively new procedure. The literature is scarce in regard to long term outcomes. This advanced procedure is offered at Morristown Memorial. THis protocol will review the one year outcome of patients who underwent this pocedure using a polypropylene mesh. These outcomes will incude anatomical and quality of life measures.
