Prophylactic Antibiotic Administration for Bladder OnabotulinumtoxinA Injection
Overactive BladderOveractive Bladder Syndrome3 moreThe goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the outcomes of differing durations of antibiotic prophylaxis with bladder onabotulinumtoxinA injection in patients with refractory overactive bladder. The main question it aims to answer are: • Is the incidence of post-procedure UTI similar between single-dose and multi-day durations of peri-procedural antibiotics? Participants will be randomized to single-dose versus multi-day dose of antibiotic prophylaxis with bladder onabotulinumtoxinA injection. Researchers will compare incidence of UTI in each group to see if there is a significant difference.
Remote Access to Urinary Incontinence Treatment for Women Veterans
Urinary IncontinenceThis study is about assessing the helpfulness of two treatment delivery methods for bladder leakage or urinary incontinence. It is being funded by the Department of Veterans Affairs. By doing this study, the investigators hope to learn which treatment method is the most helpful remote delivery method for treating bladder leakage. The total participation time in this research is 6 months. During the first 8 -12 weeks of the study, you will receive standard of care from an online educational program (MyHealtheBladder) or a video visit with a provider through VA Video Connect. You will be selected by chance to receive MyHealtheBladder or VA Video Connect. About half-way through the study, the investigators will ask you about your bladder symptoms. If your bladder symptoms are not better, you will be selected by chance to continue the previous treatment or receive an initial or booster video session with a provider. Throughout the study, you will be asked to answer questions related to your health, bladder leakage, costs due to bladder leakage, and track your behavioral training.
Comparing KIM to TVT Exact Sling
Stress Urinary IncontinenceTo assess to the non-inferiority of the retropubic Neomedic Knotless Incontinence Mesh (KIM) sling compared to the Gynecare Tension-free Vaginal Tape (TVT) Exact sling. Participants: Women 21 years or older with a diagnosis of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) or mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) with objective evidence of SUI planning surgery for stress urinary incontinence. Procedures (methods): Patients will be randomized to receive either the Gynecare TVT Exact sling or the retropubic Neomedic KIM sling. Patients will be followed for 1 year postoperatively.
A Yoga Program for Patients Undergoing Prostate Cancer Surgery
Prostate CancerErectile Dysfunction1 moreMen with localized prostate cancer (PCa) are often treated with surgery, a treatment that is associated with high rates of side effects such as erectile dysfunction (ED) and urinary incontinence (UI) which impact quality of life. Yoga may improve control of UI and improve ED by bringing awareness to and strengthening the pelvic floor musculature. The randomized controlled pilot study is to assess the feasibility of an innovative hybrid (in-person and virtual) twice-weekly yoga program that includes a prehabilitation component and to obtain preliminary data that will help assess its potential effectiveness in alleviating PCa treatment symptom burden (primarily ED and UI). The long-term goal is to develop a scalable and sustainable yoga program that helps cancer survivors manage their treatment side effects.
Retropubic vs. Single-Incision Mid-Urethral Sling for Stress Urinary Incontinence
Stress Urinary IncontinencePelvic Floor DisordersOne in five women will undergo prolapse surgery in their lifetime, and there is a strong correlation between prolapse and urinary incontinence. Pelvic floor surgeons aspire to improve relevant quality of life outcomes for women with pelvic floor disorders while minimizing complications and unnecessary procedures. There has been an experience of disappointment and frustration when a patient returns following POP repair with new symptoms of SUI that she ranks as a greater disruption to her quality of life than her original vaginal bulge. While retropubic (RP) slings are considered to be the "gold-standard" referent for other slings with long-term outcomes data, they are associated with the highest risks of intra- and post-operative complications including bladder injury, bleeding, and post-operative voiding dysfunction. Single-incision slings (SIS) are the latest iteration in sling development that build upon the benefits of slings but avoid passage through the muscles of the inner thigh. The hypothesis for this study is that single-incision slings (Altis ™) are non-inferior to Retropubic mid-urethral slings when placed at the time of native tissue vaginal repair.
Axonics SacRal NeuromodulaTIon System for Urinary Urgency Incontinence TreatmeNt
Urinary IncontinenceUrgeThe ARTISAN-SNM study is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Axonics Sacral Neuromodulation System as an aid in the treatment of the symptoms of urinary urgency incontinence (UUI) in patients who have failed or could not tolerate more conservative treatments.
Biological Sling Allograft (UVT) for the Treatment of Urinary Incontinence in Women Presenting With...
Female Stress IncontinenceStress Urinary IncontinenceThe purpose of this open, multi center trial is to evaluate a new biological replacement for synthetic slings in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.
The Effect of Dorsal Genital Nerve Stimulation on Opening Urethral Pressure
Stress Urinary IncontinenceThis study aims to investigate the effect of electrical stimulation of the dorsal genital nerve on the urethral pressure in healthy women.
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) on Neurogenic Overactive Bladder in Stroke
Urgency Urinary IncontinenceOveractive BladderNeurogenic overactive bladder (NOAB) presents with urgency incontinence. Existing NOAB management is expensive, lacks standardized regimens, or is invasive. Therefore, evaluating the effectiveness of non-invasive repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for NOAB management among stroke survivors remains crucial. Objectives: Evaluate the effects of active-rTMS compared to sham-rTMS among stroke survivors with NOAB, the interventions' cost-effectiveness and explore their experiences qualitatively.
A Study of the Use of Vaginal Radiofrequency Therapy in Treatment of SUI.
Urinary IncontinenceStressTo investigate the immediate, short-term and long-term efficacy of vaginal radiofrequency therapy in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence, and to compare the efficacy of pelvic floor electromyography combined with biofeedback therapy in stress urinary incontinence.
