Active clinical trials for "Urinary Incontinence"

The Voiding School is a simple educational intervention to treat children with daytime incontinence or enuresis.The purpose of this study is to implement the intervention in primary care, child welfare clinics. Half of the participated children will receive treatment according the Voiding School protocoll and half of them will receive treatment as usual. Patient outcomes are evaluated by measuring changes in wetting episodes. Aim is also to evaluate the implementation process.

The ongoing opioid epidemic has altered both how physicians prescribe narcotics and patients' perceptions of those prescriptions. Along with increased scrutiny regarding the quantity of opioids that be may prescribed after acute injury, for chronic conditions and following surgery the healthcare industry as a whole continues to search for alternative medications that provide adequate pain relief and have a reduced tendency for abuse/dependence/addition. To that end this study has the following aims: To evaluate the amount of opioids consumed following minimally invasive, female pelvic surgery when patients' postoperative pain is managed via: Acetaminophen plus Ibuprofen plus breakthrough pain opioids (Standard protocol) Acetaminophen plus Intranasal Ketorolac Tromethamine plus opioids for breakthrough pain (Sprix protocol) Patient satisfaction with the aforementioned methods Evaluate and compare pain scores via validated questionnaire Hypothesis: Primary: 1. Patients prescribed intranasal Ketorolac (Sprix protocol) will consume significantly less Morphine Milliequivalents (mEqs) of narcotics compared to the standard protocol following minimally invasive female pelvic surgery. Secondary: Patients in the Sprix protocol will have lower Visual Analog Scale (VAS) measures of pain which will be measured on a 0-10 scale where 0 denotes no pain and 10 denotes maximum experience of pain Patients in the Sprix protocol will have lower numeric pain score and on POD#4 Patients in the Sprix protocol will have higher Quality of Recovery 40 (QoR-40 )scores on POD#1 Patients in the Sprix protocol will have higher QoR-40 scores on POD#4 Patients will not have any significant difference in overall surgical satisfaction on POD#1 and POD#4 using a numerical satisfaction score Patients in the Sprix protocol will be more likely to consume no narcotics at all once discharged to home

The investigators hypothesize that an innovative test device simulating transvaginal tape support will increase the performance and reproducibility of the diagnosis of urethral hypermobility before surgery for urinary incontinence. The main objective of this study is to compare two prognostic tests in their ability to predict the success (or failure) of the implementation of a suburethral TVT (tension-free vaginal tape) or TOT (trans-obturator tape) treatment for stress urinary incontinence in women. The Q-tip test (test mentioned in the French and international recommendations) is compared to test a new test (clip strip).

The investigators are conducting a prospective, randomized trial to investigate whether patients randomized to receive an augmented bladder neck reconstruction (aBNR) at the time of robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy experience improved urinary function post-operatively compared to patients who undergo prostatectomy with a standard BNR. An aBNR here consists of the autologous medial umbilical ligament sling as well as a bladder neck intussusception stitch. The standard BNR group will receive the intussusception stitch only.

The purpose of this study is to compare two methods for assessing patients with pelvic organ prolapse for occult stress urinary incontinence. Urodynamic testing is the most widely accepted and well-studied method for diagnosing occult stress urinary incontinence preoperatively, but an ambulatory pessary trial is a less expensive option that is available to a wider group of practitioners and evaluates patient while they are engaged in their daily activities.

The goal of this observational study is detecting the dominant component of mixed urinary incontinence via a combined version of ICIQ-SF and quality of life scale. The main question it aims to answer is: 1. Which component (urgency or stress) urinary incontinence bothers the patient more?

There does not appear to be a consensus regarding the treatment of vaginal dryness in women who have a contraindication to the use of estrogen products. DHEA, when used locally, may improve the symptoms of vaginal dryness due to its chemical properties.

This is a randomized blinded trial with non-probabilistic sampling for convenience. Our goal is to compare PFMT with intravaginal vibratory stimulus versus PFMT alone on the treatment of female urinary incontinence.

Evaluation of the sexual quality of life of women who had a sub-urethral sling several years ago, using a recently validated questionnaire: the PPSSQ (Pelvi-Perineal Surgery Sexuality Questionnaire). This questionnaire is specifically oriented for women who have undergone surgery for stress urinary incontinence or prolapse. It contains questions specific to post-surgical issues that are not present in other sexual quality of life questionnaires. The questionnaire will also be administered to a group of control women who have not had suburethral sling surgery in order to compare their responses to those of women who have had surgery. The hypothesis is that the placement of a suburethral sling for stress urinary incontinence increases the quality of sexual life of the women.

This is a randomized cross over trial to compare quality of life and product performance between Icon reusable underwear versus standard disposable pad in patients with mild to moderate urinary incontinence.
