The goal of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the FloStent, a medical device used to treat men with symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, compared to sham (procedure without deployment of the FloStent). All participants will undergo a flexible cystoscopy and those randomized to the treatment arm will receive the FloStent, while those randomized to the sham arm will not receive the FloStent.
The goal of this project is to use newly developed patient-reported outcomes to improve the clinical care of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. The use of new patient-centered tools will improve evaluation and clinical decision-making by including symptoms not commonly measured in men, such as urinary incontinence, and allow for more frequent assessment of lower urinary tract symptoms through remote surveillance. Through the use of care-coordination checklists, clinicians can be more responsive to post-treatment symptom changes, resulting in reduced bother from lower urinary tract symptoms and higher quality of life in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
The objective of the SALT Study is to obtain post-market safety and device performance data for Boston Scientific's Stone and BPH study devices used during a diagnostic and/or therapeutic urinary tract procedure (e.g., transurethral or percutaneous access routes) or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) treatment.
APEX is a prospective multi-site registry of real-world experience with the Optilume™ BPH Catheter System for treatment of men experiencing symptomatic BPH.
The goal of this clinical trial is to verify the continued safety and effectiveness for the Optilume BPH Catheter System.
The purpose of this study is to allow us to assess the effectiveness (or success) of starting pelvic floor physical therapy (i.e. exercises for your pelvic muscles) prior to HoLEP (holmium laser enucleation of the prostate) surgery for enlarged prostates in order to manage or prevent urinary incontinence (i.e. leaking) after surgery (i.e. post-operatively). Your pelvic floor refers to the muscles under your bladder along your pelvic bones that prevent you from leaking urine or stool. Traditionally, pelvic floor physical therapy is started after surgery and continued until urinary continence (i.e. no leaking of urine) is regained. We want to assess if beginning pelvic floor physical therapy prior to surgery (and continuing afterwards) reduces the time required to regain urinary continence following HoLEP.
Specific Aim 1. To evaluate the efficacy of TNF antagonist action in BPH/LUTS Specific Aim 2. Define the consequences of TNF antagonist therapy on prostate tissue Specific Aim 3. Identify genetic predictors to stratify patients with differential response to TNF-antagonist therapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the performance and safety of the AQUABEAM Robotic System for the resection and removal of prostate tissue in patients experiencing lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and are diagnosed with localized prostate cancer. Participants will go through baseline and follow up assessments up to 12 months.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common performed surgical procedures in urology. Over the past few decades there have been an increasing development of newer surgical treatment options. Additionally, the outcome parameters for BPH treatments have been standardized. While data are available for the initial pivotal studies, post-market release data are lacking. Under the umbrella of uCARE, we have started a prospective, ongoing international registry for recording demographics and outcomes for patients undergoing surgical treatments for BPH.
The study objective is to evaluate the safety of the iTind device comparied to UroLift.
