Active clinical trials for "Urinary Incontinence"

The aim of the study is to test the performance and safety of a newly developed intermittent catheter in healthy volunteers.

The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility of conducting a pilot randomized controlled trial comparing mindfulness-based stress reduction with the health enhancement program on symptoms of urinary urge incontinence in older adult women, and to establish preliminary efficacy of these two approaches on symptoms of urinary urge incontinence.

Study with food supplement to assess the eficacy of pollen extract on Urinary Incontinence

To our knowledge, no studies in Nepal have reported the feasibility of performing the pelvic floor muscle training in Nepalese women. The aim of the study is to develop and a pelvic floor muscle training programme based on information, education (leaflet, video) and pelvic floor muscles (PFM) exercise in order to prevent or reduce Pelvic organ prolapse(POP) and Urinary Incontinence (UI) in pregnant Nepalese women. The women will receive information (leaflet, video, posters) and guidance on PFMT. Following this, the women are advised to perform daily home PFM exercise Women will record their home PFMT using an exercise diary.

This study will compare voiding assessment based on a minimum spontaneous voided volume of 150 cc with the standard retrograde fill approach in women after pelvic floor procedures.

The effect of Pelvic Floor Muscle Training with Biofeedback and Extracorporeal Magnetic Innervation on the Urinary Symptoms, Sexual Function and Quality of Life of Women with Stress Urinary Incontinence

The overall objective of this project is to reduce the risk of falls in elderly community dwelling women over 60 years of age with urgency urinary incontinence (UUI). In this pilot study, the investigators plan to develop, validate and test a home based integrated exercise and urge suppression intervention (bladder training) that targets functional mobility, reduces anxiety urgency and physical barriers and is implemented in partnership with all stakeholders. Key eligibility criteria: women over 60 years of age, with moderate to severe UUI, and low physical activity.

The ARTUS MONO implant is an active implantable medical device (AIMD) that assist the urethral sphincter function of female patients suffering from moderate to severe urinary incontinence, by remotely opening and closing a cuff placed around the bladder neck. The purpose of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the feasibility of implantation of the device, its safety and its efficacy, when temporarily implanted in female patients scheduled for anterior pelvic exenteration for bladder cancer.

This study is aimed to determine the effect of Wii fit based abdomino-pelvic training on strength of pelvic floor muscles and on symptoms of urinary incontinence in females. An experimental, randomized controlled trial will be performed. Both reproductive and postmenopausal females with stress urinary incontinence will be included. 40 participants would be randomly distributed in experimental group (n=20) receiving wii fit based abdomino-pelvic training and control group (n=20) receiving conventional pelvic floor exercises. Pelvic floor strength would be assessed before and after by Digital method and EMG biofeedback. Urinary symptoms would be assessed by bladder diary, pad test and International consultation on Incontinence Questionnaires. Health related Quality of life questionnaire would also be used as an outcome measure. Data will be analyzed on SPSS 21 version using descriptive and inferential statistics

The main aim of this pilot study was to examine the effect of diaphragmatic breathing exercise on urinary incontinence treatment. The secondary purpose was to compare the effect of pelvic floor muscle exercises and diaphragmatic breathing exercises on urinary incontinence women. Design: Participants were randomized into two groups: pelvic floor muscle exercises (Group PFM n=20) and diaphragmatic breathing exercises (Group DB n=20). Exercise programs consisted of 1 set of contractions per day and each set included 30 repetitions for 6 weeks. Women were asked to complete forms of Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7) and the Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI-6), Incontinence Quality of Life (I-QOL), and Overactive Bladder (OAB-V3) before starting the program and again at the end of the 6-week program. Changes from baseline were compared in both groups and between the two groups.
