Active clinical trials for "Urinary Incontinence"

The Safety and Efficacy of Micro-energy Ultrasound Therapy in the Treatment of Female Stress Urinary Incontinence: A Multi-center Randomized Trail

Usability and efficacy evaluation of a prototype handheld urinal for adult use

The investigators plan to conduct this multi-center, three-armed, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of electroacupuncture (EA), compared with sham electroacupuncture (SA) and waiting list (WL) on participants with stress-predominant mixed urinary incontinence (MUI).

OnabotulinumtoxinA (Botox®) bladder injections are a highly effective treatment for overactive bladder and urgency urinary incontinence. The procedure is typically performed in the office setting with one of two medications to control comfort. However, the effectiveness of these medications has never been compared. The goal of this study is to determine which medication is better at providing comfort during bladder Botox® injections.

Validation of a new Quality of Life (QoL) questionnaire in a population of patient gaining a TiLOOP® TAPE surgical mesh for stabilization of the urethra.

The purpose of this study is to prospectively assess whether Desmopressin, given for a period of month to patients after radical cystectomy with orthotopic bladder reconstruction, improves and lowers the rate of nocturnal enuresis.

This research is primarily to compare effectiveness of electroacupuncture and pelvic floor muscle training for SUI, and evaluate optimal efficiency of electroacupuncture for stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The early clinical research is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a small sample,consisting of two arms of electroacupuncture group and sham electroacupuncture group to value difference of extent of SUI in 1h pad test after 4 weeks. The result indicates that electroacupuncture is an optimal method for SUI. As a further study, this research is a large sample multicenter trial with two parallel arms of electroacupuncture group and pelvic floor muscle training group. The primary purpose is to value effectiveness of electroacupuncture for SUI in aspect of frequency of leakage and amount of leakage, comparing with pelvic floor muscle training. And the secondary purpose is to evaluate safety of electroacupuncture therapy, and compare acceptance of electroacupuncture treatment and pelvic floor muscle training.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether TVT-Secur (TVT-S) (Hammock method) and TVT-Obturator (TVT-O) suburethral sling procedures have equivalent patient satisfaction and clinical efficacy in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence alone or the stress component in mixed urinary incontinence.

Urinary incontinence (UI) is defined as any involuntary loss of urine and can be divided into three types: urgency, stress and mixed. Pelvic floor exercises are considered the main non pharmacological choice for UI treatment. Its mechanisms are not fully understood, however there are some evidence that central mechanisms play an important role in the continence control. In this context, neuromodulatory techniques, such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), that address cortical targets has been demonstrated promising results in different health conditions. However, few studies have investigated the efficacy of adding tDCS to exercise therapies for women with UI.
