NCT05694793
The goal of this prospective trial is to assess the safety and reliability of the Glean Urodynamics System (GUS) in adult females with lower urinary tract symptoms. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: • What is GUS's ability to safely and reliably conduct wireless, catheter-free monitoring of vesical pressure compared to the vesical pressures collected with conventional urodynamics? Participants will undergo a conventional urodynamics exam, a simultaneous urodynamics exam with GUS, ambulatory urodynamics with GUS, and extended home monitoring with GUS. Researchers will compare GUS data with that from a conventional urodynamics exam.
NCT05989646
The aim of this study is to investigate whether the activity in brain areas controlling the bladder is different among children suffering from Overactive Bladder (OAB) and Daytime Urinary Incontinence (DUI) compared to age- and gender-matched healthy children without bladder symptoms. Moreover, the aim is to investigate if sacral transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation (TENS) has a central mechanism of action. Children with OAB and DUI will be recruited from involved pediatric departments, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) will be performed before and after 10 weeks of sacral TENS. In healthy children without bladder symptoms, only the baseline fMRI will be performed.

NCT07378358
This multicenter retrospective study aims to evaluate the diagnostic and therapeutic performance of three large language models-ChatGPT, Gemini and Deepseek-using 800 archived inpatient medical records from urology departments across four tertiary hospitals. The study will focus on the accuracy and applicability of these models in disease recognition, preliminary diagnosis and treatment recommendation generation, in order to explore their potential value and limitations in supporting clinical decision-making in real-world settings.
NCT05443321
Sub-optimal transfer of clinical information during inter-hospital transfer (IHT, the transfer of patients between acute care hospitals) is common and can lead to patient harm. To address this problem, the investigators will use key stakeholder input to refine and implement an interoperable health information exchange platform that integrates with the electronic health record and improves the reliability of and access to necessary clinical information in three use cases involving transfer of patients between sending and receiving hospitals with varying levels of affiliation and health record integration. The investigators will assess the effect of this intervention on frequency of medical errors, evaluate the use and usability of this platform from the perspective of those that interact with it, and use these results to develop a dissemination plan to spread implementation and use of this platform across other similar institutions.
NCT06164600
Prebiotics as bovine colostrum are considered as a valuable supplement in the prevention of upper respiratory tract infections, gastrointestinal tract infections and neonatal sepsis. It contains many bioactive substances, such as immunoglobulins, lactoferrin, lysozyme, lactoperoxidase, and other growth factors.There is a lack of research on the use of prebiotics for prophylaxis against recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI) in children.In this era of increasing bacterial resistance to antimicrobial therapy, bovine colostrum can offer an approach for prophylaxis against UTI in these patients.We aim at this trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bovine colostrum as a prebiotic for prophylaxis against recurrent urinary tract infection in children.
NCT03081858
This is a single-arm, phase 1/2a study of formulated paclitaxel in subjects with low-grade, noninvasive papillary carcinoma (stage Ta) of the bladder. Part 1 of the study will enroll 6 subjects (3 per cohort) with low-grade, stage Ta transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder who will receive escalating doses of paclitaxel formulated as TSD-001 every 2 weeks for 6 treatments until Dose Limiting Toxicity (or until the Maximum Deliverable Dose) is observed (Maximum Tolerated Dose established). Part 2 of the study will enroll an additional 10 subjects with low-grade, stage Ta (uni-or multifocal) TCC of the bladder who will receive weekly TSD-001 for 6 weeks at the highest nontoxic dose (i.e., MTD) established in part 1 of the study. May meet definition of low grade without histological tissue diagnosis if on cystoscopic assessment they have a solitary papillary tumor. Part 3 of the study will continue to track subjects enrolled in Parts 1 and 2 to determine rates of disease-free survival.
NCT05399043
The implementation of virtual reality (VR) and robotic devices in neuromotor rehabilitation has so far provided promising evidence in terms of efficacy throughout different clinical populations. Positive changes in patient's motor and functional outcomes were reported along with an increased autonomy in the activities of daily living (ADLs) and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The experience of use of these technological devices and their impact on the cognitive and psychosocial outcomes remain still unclear, though. Adopting a biopsychosocial approach, the present two-arm, parallel, non-randomized prospective quasi-experimental study protocol aims to explore the short- and long-term effectiveness of robot-assisted therapy (RAT) and of VR-based neuromotor rehabilitation. Pre-post intervention effects will be estimated and compared between a group of patients undergoing conventional treatment and another group additionally participating in technology-based rehabilitation. The evaluation will include patient's functional status (ie, motor functionality, autonomy in ADLs, risk of falls), cognitive functioning (ie, attention and executive functions), HRQoL, and psychological aspects (ie, anxiety and depression symptoms, quality of life satisfaction). After the treatment, devices usability and experience of use, along with the related psychosocial impact will be also assessed.
NCT05418816
This is a single-center, prospective, single-arm clinical study to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and performance of VenoStent's SelfWrap® Bioabsorbable Perivascular Wrap on arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs). All participants are chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients already receiving hemodialysis treatments that are referred for creation of a new arteriovenous fistula (AVF).
NCT05508165
This study is being done to compare usefulness of data collected in uroflowmetry, a test that measures the amount of urine released from the body, at home versus in the doctor's office. Additionally, investigators are assessing patient satisfaction when completing a virtual visit for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), related to prostatic enlargement, compared to an in person visit. The three devices being investigated have not been used in the home setting to make urinary measurements as is typically done in clinic. The goal is to test the effectiveness and accuracy of these devices compared to our standard clinical practices and demonstrate their ability to provide useful information in the home setting.
NCT06531473
The primary aim is to assess the impact of laser setting frequency and wattage during holmium laser enucleation of the prostate. There is currently no gold-standard laser settings for HoLEP procedures. In the investigator's current high-volume practice, the following settings for enucleation are: 2j 50hz. These settings are conventional settings, but there is no literature to prove optimal laser settings. The investigators hypothesizes that utilization of higher laser settings may be associated with a clinically significant (defined as \> 10%) decrease in procedural time without any detrimental postoperative outcomes, and a utilization of lower laser settings may be associated with a clinically significant (defined as \>10%) reduction in postoperative irritative voiding symptoms without any detrimental postoperative outcomes.
NCT02320773
