Active clinical trials for "Urinary Incontinence"

This study evaluates whether eliminating certain ingredients (caffeine, alcohol, artificial sweeteners, acidic juices) consumed in beverages reduces bladder symptoms of urinary frequency and urgency. Women with overactive bladder will be recruited. Half of these women will receive instructions to replace beverages containing these ingredients with beverages such as water or milk. The other half of participants will receive instructions on following the United States Department of Agriculture guidelines on healthy eating.

This trial is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm follow-on study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of eCoinTM tibial nerve stimulation in subjects with urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) as defined by the American Urological Association (30). The follow-on study will evaluate changes from baseline in OAB symptoms as measured by voiding diaries and patient-reported outcomes through 24 weeks of eCoinTM therapy (which is the same as 28 weeks from study device reimplantation).

This is an open label, prospective study aimed to evaluate safety and efficacy of the Silk'n Tightra device for improvement of sexual functioning, vulvovaginal appearance and reduction of SUI.

This study will compare the clinical efficacy and safety between rPMS device and pelvic floor exercises for the treatment of urinary incontinence. The subjects will be enrolled and assigned into two study groups - active and control group. Subjects will be required to complete six (6) treatment visits and five follow-up visits - 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after the final treatment.

To compare the subjective and objective outcomes of TVT-O procedure alone versus the same procedure followed by the use of premarin vaginal cream for 3 months in postmenopausal female with genuine stress incontinence.

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a common complaint in women after childbirth. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of non-ablative Er:YAG laser therapy in the treatment of SUI and improvement of sexual gratification in parous women. 114 premenopausal parous women with SUI were randomized in two groups of 57 women; a laser intervention group and sham control (placebo) group. Both groups were treated according to the IncontiLaseTM clinical treatment protocol for SUI with non-ablative thermal-only Er:YAG laser, except that there was no energy output when treating the sham group. Patients were blinded to the allocation. At baseline and 3 months after treatment patients were clinically examined, answered questionnaires for SUI severity sexual function assessment and their pelvic floor muscle (PFM) function was assessed with perineometry. The improvement in the laser group will be compared to the improvement in the sham group.

Childbirth is a major risk factor for pelvic floor muscle (PFM) trauma. In one third of women, stretching of the PFM will result in an avulsion injury (i.e. disconnection of the muscle from its insertion points on the pubic symphysis). Recent advances in imaging have led to the discovery of this previously unknown major injury and further research now enables its diagnosis with readily available techniques. Avulsion injury has alarming consequences because it has been associated with a higher rate of urinary incontinence in the postpartum period as well as the long-term development of other major urogynecological conditions such as pelvic organ prolapse and anal incontinence. Women with avulsion not only suffer from severe symptoms with significant related impacts on physical activities, overall well-being and quality of life, but they also present a higher rate of surgical failures. Moreover, it is still unknown whether the most recommended first-line treatment for urinary incontinence -PFM physiotherapy- is effective in women with this major trauma. Until now, only a pilot study conducted by our team supports the rationale and the efficacy of physiotherapy for improving PFM function in women with avulsion, despite their major muscle injury. Primary objective: To evaluate the efficacy of physiotherapy for urinary incontinence in women with avulsion at 9-months after randomization compared to a waiting-list control group. Secondary objectives: To compare physiotherapy to the control group after treatment and at 9-months after randomization in terms of: a) incontinence and prolapse (objective quantification, symptoms and related impact); b) PFM morphology and function; c) sexual function; d) self-efficacy; e) cost analysis; f) treatment satisfaction and impression of change. To investigate the impact of the severity of the avulsion (i.e. unilateral or bilateral) on the response to physiotherapy treatment on the aforementioned outcomes.

The study is a single arm, prospective study of the safety and effectiveness of the Valencia Technologies eCoin System to stimulate the tibial nerve for the treatment of patients with refractory urgency urinary incontinence.

This study is a simple effectiveness trial to determine if the Lully Sleep Guardian has any effect on benign nocturnal enuresis.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of onabotulinumtoxinA 100 U (BOTOX®), compared to placebo, when injected into the bladder using an alternative injection paradigm in reducing the number of daily urinary incontinence episodes in patients with overactive bladder (OAB) and urinary incontinence whose symptoms have not been adequately managed with an anticholinergic.
