Blood injection vs. sling: new hope for leaky bladder?
NCT ID NCT07550426
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 23, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study compares two treatments for stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when you cough, sneeze, or exercise). One group gets a shot of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) made from their own blood, while the other gets a standard surgical sling. The trial will enroll 42 women and measure how well each treatment stops the leaking.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Platelet Rich Plasma
- What this could lead to
- If PRP works well, it could offer a less invasive option for treating stress urinary incontinence, avoiding the need for a surgical sling.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 42 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. PRP is still experimental for this use, and its long-term effectiveness is unknown.
