The goal of this pivotal clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the SUI-100 device for the treatment of mild-to-moderate stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in females aged 22-70 years. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. Does treatment with the SUI-100 device reduce SUI symptoms, as measured by urine leakage. 2. Is the device safe and effective compared to the sham group? Participants will: 1. Be randomly assigned to an active or sham control group in a blinded, multicenter study. 2. Attend treatment visits during the Treatment Phase, with SUI assessments conducted at specific intervals. 3. Enter a 3-month, treatment-free follow-up phase, with SUI assessment. 4. Proceed to three monthly maintenance treatments, followed by a final SUI assessment at study exit. The total study duration will last approximately 18 months, with each individual's participation lasting approximately 6-8 months. This study aims to provide robust data on the effectiveness, safety, and durability of the SUI-100 device for treating female Stress Urinary Incontinence.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if retropubic midurethral sling (RP-MUS) or bulkamide injection (PAHG) at the time of pelvic organ prolapse repair is better from the patient's perspective. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the average difference in the urogenital distress inventory (UDI) long form score 24 months after surgery for each procedure? Which procedure has the fewest complications and lowest short- and long-term morbidity profile? Participants will: Be blinded and randomized to one of two procedures for the duration of the study, 24 months. Complete 6 total visits for the clinical trial including validated questionnaires. Few participants will be selected to complete a qualitative interview at 3 timepoints over 24 month duration of the study.
This is a multicentered, double-blind, randomized controlled, surgical trial of 358 women with inadequate symptom relief of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) or stress predominant mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) after conservative care. The Primary Aim is to determine the comparative effectiveness (as defined by "much" or "very much" better on PGI-I) of transurethral bulking agent (TBA) \[for 1 or 2 injections in 12 months\] vs. single-incision sling (SIS) 12 months after treatment intervention in women with predominant stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
This will be a double-blind randomized control trial in women with stress urinary incontinence who are undergoing an outpatient transurethral bulking procedure for stress urinary incontinence. Subjects will be identified by the University of Rochester urologists and urogynecologists participating in the study who currently oversee stress incontinence care. Subjects will be randomized into two groups. One group will be undergoing the cystoscopy with transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) for analgesia, and the second group will have the cystoscopy with placebo TENS.
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.
Background: Men who are treated for prostate cancer often develop urinary leakage (incontinence). An experimental device that uses electrical impulses to stimulate pelvic floor muscles and surrounding tissues may help. Objective: To see if the Elidah device can reduce urinary incontinence after prostate treatment. Eligibility: Men aged 18 years and older who have had moderate urinary incontinence for at least 6 months after treatment for prostate cancer. Design: Participants will be in the study for about 9 weeks. They will be screened. They will have a physical exam with urine tests. The Elidah device consists of a Controller and a GelPad. The Controller sets the strength of electrical impulses. The GelPad is placed against the skin under the pelvis. Participants will be given an Elidah device and taught how to use it at home. They will use the device once a day for 20 minutes at a time; they will do this 5 days a week for 6 weeks. Participants will complete a daily log. They will record the strength of electrical impulses (0-35); the number of incontinence episodes; the type of incontinence episode; and the number of used pads. Participants will do a pad weight test. For 3 days before and 3 days after using the Elidah device, they will collect all of their used pads for each 24-hour period into a sealed plastic bag. They will also collect a second set of bags that contain dry versions of each product used. Participants will have clinic visits after using the device for 3 weeks and after finishing the 6 weeks of treatment. Participants will complete 15-minute questionnaires.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of the electromyography component of the company's pelvic health product in a patient population with stress urinary incontinence to treatment with pelvic floor physical therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does treatment with the device under study improve symptoms of stress urinary incontinence as measured by the ICIQ when compared to pelvic floor physical therapy? Does treatment with the device under study combined with pelvic floor physical therapy improve symptoms of stress urinary incontinence as measured by the ICIQ when compared to pelvic floor physical therapy alone and treatment with the device alone? Participants will be given one of three treatments: 1. The devices under study alone 2. The device under study plus 4 weekly visits with a pelvic floor physical therapist 3. Four weekly visits with a physical therapist alone Participants will perform a standardized pelvic floor muscle training program 10 minutes a day, four times a week for 4 weeks. There will be a mid-study check in to assure all devices are functioning appropriately. At the end of the study, participants will complete a post-treatment urinary incontinence symptom questionnaire(ICIQ).
The goal of this pilot study is to report the safety and efficacy of a suture-suspended mesh-reduced sling for treating stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * investigate the efficacy of this mesh-reduced suture-based surgical technique for improving SUI symptoms * investigate the efficacy of this mesh-reduced suture-based surgical technique on key urethral support defects observed with 3D ultrasound Participants will consent to participate following which they will complete pre-operative assessments according to our routine clinical pathway. The participant will then undergo surgery and will be followed up to 12 months post-operatively via symptom assessment and pelvic exam.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare treatment outcomes between an oral medication (beta agonist) versus onabotulinumtoxinA injections in women with urgency urinary incontinence (UUI). Participants will be randomly selected to receive one of the two treatments. The primary outcome measure will be at 3 months, and women will be followed for a total of 12 months. Based on patient expert input, there are 2 primary outcomes: Treatment satisfaction and urinary symptom severity. The study will also have a long-term follow-up component (prospective cohort) including 346 participants from the parent trial to describe treatment continuation, treatment efficacy, patient direct costs and other secondary outcomes up to 5 years after treatment.
Biofeedback therapy is an effective treatment for the management of patients with dyssynergic defecation and constipation, urinary incontinence (UI), and fecal incontinence (FI). It is labor-intensive, costly, requires multiple office or hospital visits, is not easily available to the vast majority of patients in the community, and is not covered by many insurance companies. The purpose of this study is to 1. Evaluate home biofeedback therapy for patients with either constipation and dyssynergic defecation or urinary leakage or stool leakage by assessing the efficacy and safety of a wireless anorectal biofeedback device, and a cellphone app-based and voice guided home biofeedback training system 2. To compare the efficacy and safety of home biofeedback therapy system with the standard of care, office biofeedback therapy 3. To assess the cost-effectiveness of home biofeedback therapy.
