Active clinical trials for "Urinary Incontinence"

The purpose of this study is to monitor the use of Virtue® Male Sling in a real world population and collect medical data on effectiveness and to monitor safety of Virtue® at 12 and 36 months post device implantation in men with post-prostatectomy urinary incontinence.

The main aim of this study is to elucidate factors affecting treatment efficacy of vaginal laser therapy.

This clinical investigation is designed as an interventional, prospective, non-randomized, open-label, single arm, multicentric and international study for obtaining CE marking. The study will be the first performed with the ARTUS® medical device aiming to assess safety and performance and will be composed of three phases: pilot phase (with safety analysis on the 10 first included subjects in 3 investigational sites), pivotal phase (in up to 16 investigational sites with a follow-up until the 12-month post-device activation visit, including an interim analysis at 3-month post-device activation visit on performance and safety), long-term phase (with a long-term follow-up until 10 years post implantation in up to 16 investigational sites). The objectives is to assess safety and clinical performance of the ARTUS® for the treatment of Stress Urinary Incontinence at short and long-term.

The aim of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an autologous muscle stem cell therapy in the treatment of congenital urinary incontinence in isolated epispadias.

The objective of this study is to compare the short-term and 1-yr follow-up functional outcomes of retzius-repairing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RR-RARP) with retzius-sparing (RS) RARP. This study is a single-centre, single-surgeon and a prospective randomized study.

The aim of the study was to compare the effects of stabilization exercises and pelvic floor muscle training in women with stress urinary incontinence.

This project seeks to determine whether primary care practices that receive supplemental partnership building implement UI-Assist with higher fidelity than practices that receive streamlined practice facilitation alone.

To conduct a retrospective study to examine the effect of these conservative treatments to the symptoms and quality of life of patients with urinary incontinence. The investigators will use both subjective and objective assessment parameters, such as self-report symptoms, bladder diary, pad test and urodynamic study to access the improvement.

Postmenopausal women frequently report physical (hot flushes, night sweat, insomnia, vaginal dryness, sexual dysfunction, urinary incontinence, reduced fitness level, osteoporotic symptoms, sarcopenia, decreased fat free mass, etc.) and psychological (depression, anxiety, cognitive decline, etc.) symptoms. Among these symptoms, urinary incontinence is one of the most common manifestations of pelvic floor dysfunction and may significantly impact on women's quality of life. Urinary incontinence is highly prevalent (30%) in postmenopausal women and is primarily attributed to the decreased level of estrogen. Other potential risk factors for urinary incontinence after menopause include age, parity, genetic factors, pregnancy, overweight/obesity, low physical activity levels, diabetes, urinary tract infection, etc. International guidelines recommend lifestyle and behavioral change, pelvic floor muscle training and bladder training as first-line treatments for urinary incontinence in postmenopausal women. During the COVID-19 pandemic, access to and utilization of healthcare services is reduced. As travel distance has been reported as one of the strong barriers to healthcare among patients with incontinence, research has been conducted to investigate the applications and effects of telehealth. While telehealth rehabilitation may improve urinary incontinence symptoms, the field is still emerging and more studies are needed to elucidate how physical therapists can perform telehealth pelvic floor muscle training for urinary incontinence. The objectives of this three-year study are: to investigate the feasibility of a telehealth-delivered physical therapy program for postmenopausal women with urinary incontinence to explore the effects of a telehealth-delivered physical therapy program on urinary incontinence symptoms, pelvic floor muscle function and quality of life in postmenopausal women with urinary incontinence to compare the effectiveness of telehealth physical therapy program with face-to-face physical therapy in this population to compare body composition, physical activity levels, functional capacity, grip strength, urinary incontinence symptoms, and pelvic floor muscles function in women at early versus late stage of post-menopause to evaluate the relationships between duration after menopause and body composition, physical activity levels, functional capacity, grip strength, urinary incontinence symptoms, and pelvic floor muscles function

The investigators plan to conduct this randomized sham-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of electroacupuncture (EA), compared with sham electroacupuncture (SA) on women with mixed urinary incontinence (MUI).
