Active clinical trials for "Urinary Incontinence"

Urinary incontinence is becoming an increasingly common health, social and economic problem. The prevalence of urinary incontinence is estimated at 55% of the entire female population. Urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) is the least common subtype of urinary incontinence but has debilitating symptoms that lead to a decrease in quality of life. Ultimately, the urogynegology field does not have many successful types of treatments for this specific subtype. Extracorporeal magnetic stimulation of the pelvic floor is a type of conservative management that produces a magnetic field, which induces controlled depolarization of the nerves, resulting in pelvic muscle contraction and sacral S2-S4 roots neuromodulation. Therefore, it relieves symptoms of UUI and improves quality of life. There was no randomized, sham-controlled study published that researched the effectiveness of magnetic stimulation in the treatment of UUI that evaluated the success with subjective and objective methods, such as urodynamic studies. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of magnetic stimulation in the treatment of urgency urinary incontinence.

The prevalence of urinary incontinence increases after the menopause and affects between 38 % and 55 % of women aged over 60 years. Urinary incontinence has a profound impact on quality of life. Pelvic floor muscle training is the first-line management for urinary incontinence. Electrical stimulation is considered for improving contraction of pelvic floor muscles and aid motivation and adherence to therapy and commonly used in pelvic floor muscle training in clinic therapy. However, the stability and quality of the signals collected by existing stretchable electronics (two-channel hard electrode) are too poor especially when muscle movement is involved, making them inappropriate for aureate pelvic floor muscle training. Here, we propose a physiology-based design method for the stretchable electronics and a novel airbag-type stretchable electrode array (ASEA) device for pelvic floor muscle training. In this study, the investigators hypothesis that ASEA is effective in controlling UI. A randomized, open, and controlled study will be implemented. "participants with ASEA will be included and be prescribed. Two-channel hard electrode as electrical stimulation electrode will be used as positive control.The primary efficacy end points is the reduction of symptom scoring and improving of quality-of-life assessment, the frequency of UI at 12th week assessed with bladder diaries and pad testing, and the quality-of-life assessed with incontinence impact questionnaire short form (IIQ-7) and pelvic organ prolapsed-urinary incontinence sexual questionnaire-12(PISQ-12). The adverse event and medication compliance will be investigated. The aim of this study is to explore the efficacy, safety and therapy of ASEA as electrical stimulation electrode in management of UI. This study will provide new options of electrode for the electrical stimulation in management of UI, which will help improve precision therapy of UI.

The purpose of this study is to study the treatment of urgency urinary incontinence (UUI), specifically among women 70 years and older, by comparing reduced versus standard dose of onabotulinumtoxinA (BTX; trade name BOTOX(c)) injection in the bladder.

More than one in five females experience the embarrassment and shame of urine leakage while exercising and this urinary incontinence (UI) is a substantial barrier to exercise. As many as one in three females with UI report that they limit their physical activity due to incontinence: 11.6% by not exercising at all, 11.3% by exercising less and 12.4% by changing the type of exercise they perform. It is imperative to look for alternatives to manage this condition, as it is a key reason why females abandon the very physical exercise that is necessary to maintain or improve their physical and mental health and their quality of life. While there is Grade A evidence for pelvic floor muscle training and some evidence for intravaginal pessaries to reduce symptoms of UI in general female populations, no study has evaluated the impact of conservative interventions specifically on UI experienced predominantly during running.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS), caused by lesions in the white matter of the central nervous system, is an autoimmune inflammatory demyelinating chronic disease. The disease may present with many findings from fatigue, spasticity, balance and gait disturbances to bladder-bowel dysfunction (Ferreira, A.P.S., et al., 2019). When the rehabilitation methods for incontinence were examined, pelvic floor muscle training, tibial nerve stimulation and sacral neuromodulation were frequently encountered (Rahnama'I, MS., 2020). Pelvic floor muscle training should create an effective result in MS patients, and the training should be done for a long time, such as 8-12 weeks. No study has been found examining the effects of manual therapy techniques and diaphragmatic breathing exercise in the acute phase in functional or neurogenic bladder-intestinal dysfunctions.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of laser acupuncture on monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis in adolescent females.

The aim of this randomized controlled study was to compare the EMG biofeedback method with pelvic floor muscle (PTC) exercises and Sham EMG biofeedback group in women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) on pelvic floor muscle strength, trunk endurance, subjective perception of improvement, severity of complaints, pad test and quality of life. to determine its effectiveness.

The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of pelvic floor physical therapy (PFT) and therapeutic yoga training (TYT) for women who have postnatal stress urinary incontinence (SUI).

The trans-obturator tape (TOT), which exhibits a satisfactory cure rate and a relatively diminished invasiveness, has been increasingly accepted as a surgical treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) patients. Nevertheless, in contrast to the well-recognized therapeutic benefit of the enhanced resistance to the bladder continence during urine storage, if the voiding function of the bladder adapts to the TOT-enhanced outlet resistance has not been adequately investigated. This study retrospectively assayed the voiding efficacy of each voiding cycle, to clarify if the thermodynamic efficacy of the bladder was modified in response to the TOT surgery.
