To evaluate the safety and efficacy rate of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) slings in the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
A prospective pilot study was conducted with women with SUI who underwent PVDF slings.
Women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) experience urine leakage with physical activity. Currently, the interventional treatments for SUI are surgical, or endoscopic bulking injection(s). However, these procedures are not always successful, and symptoms can persist or come back after treatment, categorised as recurrent SUI.
To evaluate the trends in female stress urinary incontinence (SUI) surgery in a UK tertiary referral center during five years before the July 2018 tape suspension and to compare it with National Health Service (NHS) England data.
To evaluate the associations between patient risk factors and incontinence related patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) pre-and-post artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) implantation. We hypothesize patient risk factors, including prior radiation and diabetes will have a negative association with post AUS PROMs.
This study aimed to determine the prevalence, severity and type of urinary incontinence (UI) in female and male CrossFit® practitioners.
The study design is an online cross-sectional survey distributed to CrossFit® practitioners across all Spanish regions.
Postpartum stress urinary incontinence (PSUI) is a widespread complaint in postpartum women, which significantly affects their quality of life. Acupuncture has been widely used as an alternative complementary therapy for the treatment of PSUI.
To assess the clinical efficacy of commercially available pelvic muscle training devices on the treatment of pelvic floor disorders.
We searched MEDLINE, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.gov through April 2020.
Urethral Pressure Profilometry (UPP) assesses the urethral closing function. The literature is scarce regarding the change in the Maximum Urethral Closure Pressure (MUCP) values during Pelvic Floor Muscle Contraction (PFMC).
Our objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of pelvic floor physiotherapy interventions for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in postmenopausal women.
Searches were performed in MEDLINE/PubMed, PEDro, Cochrane Library Registry and LILACS databases until October 2021.
Urinary prostheses for the treatment of male stress urinary incontinence ranged from simple to adjustable bulbourethral compressing devices to complex artificial urinary sphincter. Those devices have remarkably evolved since the 1950s.
