This study aimed to find the best way to maintain the benefits of a nerve stimulation treatment for overactive bladder. Researchers compared giving the therapy monthly to giving it only when patients felt their symptoms returning. The goal was to see if a flexible, as-needed sche…

This study tested the safety and effectiveness of a small, implantable device for people with overactive bladder. The device sends gentle electrical pulses to a nerve near the ankle, which is thought to help calm the bladder. Researchers measured whether it reduced sudden urges a…

This study looked at 61 women with overactive bladder who didn't respond well to single medications. Researchers gave them combination drug therapy to see who would benefit and who wouldn't. The goal was to identify factors that predict treatment failure, helping doctors choose b…

This study tested a small, coin-sized device called eCoin that is implanted under the skin near the ankle. It sends gentle electrical pulses to a nerve to help control overactive bladder symptoms like sudden urges and accidental leakage. The trial followed 133 adults for up to 5 …

This study tested whether a high daily dose of vitamin D, combined with standard behavioral therapy, works better than a common bladder medication for children with a specific type of overactive bladder. It involved 180 children who had low vitamin D levels. Researchers compared …

This study tested if a new, extended-release version of a common water pill (torsemide) works better than the standard version to reduce urgent and frequent bathroom trips in people with chronic heart failure. 24 participants, all over 50 with both conditions, tried each pill for…

This study tested whether giving a standard Botox dose for overactive bladder through just one injection works as well as spreading it across ten injections. Researchers wanted to see if the single-injection method was just as effective at reducing symptoms while potentially caus…

This study tested a special chair that uses focused electromagnetic energy to strengthen pelvic floor muscles, aiming to reduce symptoms of stress and urge urinary incontinence (bladder leakage). The treatment is non-invasive—participants remained fully clothed—and was designed t…

This study tested whether adding a low dose of tadalafil (a medication for erectile dysfunction) to the standard drug solifenacin improves symptoms of overactive bladder in women. Researchers compared the two-drug combination against solifenacin alone in 80 women over three month…

This small study tested how easy it is for women to use the FemPulse System, a device intended to help manage overactive bladder symptoms. Five women with a long-term diagnosis of overactive bladder tried using the device and its mobile app. The main goal was to see if they could…

This study tested whether an at-home nerve stimulation treatment for overactive bladder is as effective and satisfying for patients as the clinic-based version. Researchers compared 70 patients who either received weekly clinic treatments or learned to do treatments themselves at…
