Noninvasive spinal stimulation to improve bladder and autonomic function
This trial tests a noninvasive way to stimulate the spinal cord to help the body’s “automatic functions” (like bladder, bowel, and sexual function) after spinal cord injury. If you’ve had a stable, complete spinal cord injury for more than a year, you may be eligible to try this approach and help researchers evaluate recovery.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 19–60 - NCT04626167RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a bladder transplant done with a kidney transplant
This early-phase study is testing a combined bladder and kidney transplant approach for people whose bladder problems damage the kidneys. The goal is to see if this treatment can improve bladder and kidney outcomes and be done safely.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 1–60 - NCT05613153Enrolling by invitation
Peppermint oil for children with bladder and bowel problems
This trial tests whether peppermint oil can improve bladder and bowel control problems in children who did not get better with behavior-based treatment. If it works, it may reduce symptoms and improve daily bathroom habits.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 8–17 - NCT07511244Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation for bladder and bowel control after spinal cord injury
This trial tests whether spinal cord stimulation can help improve bladder and bowel function in people who have had a spinal cord injury for more than 6 months. The goal is to see if this treatment can restore more control and quality of life.
BeijingAges 18–60 - NCT07355803Recruiting
Choosing the best Coloplast catheter for you through surveys
This study aims to find out which Coloplast catheters people prefer by asking them to answer surveys. It is for adults who already use self-catheters and want to share which features work best for them.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT05380856Recruiting
Sacral nerve stimulation for bladder, bowel, and sexual symptoms
This trial studies whether sacral neuromodulation (a device that sends mild nerve signals) can improve bladder, bowel, and sexual symptoms caused by nerve problems. It is for people whose current bladder treatments have not worked well enough.
Odense, FynAges 18–80 - NCT04993859Recruiting
Testing how chemotherapy affects kids’ urinary markers
This study looks at urinary (bladder and urine) measurements in children who previously had cancer and were treated with certain chemotherapy drugs. It may help researchers understand how past chemotherapy can affect bladder function and related health markers over time.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 5–13 - NCT07570771Recruiting
Dialysis duration effects on bladder function in transplant candidates
This study examines how long you've been on dialysis and how much urine you still produce might affect your bladder's ability to hold and stretch after a kidney transplant. Understanding this helps doctors predict how well your bladder will work after you receive a new kidney.
Karachi, SindhAges 18–65 - NCT06472193Recruiting
A new way to create a catheter passage for children
This trial tests a new surgical technique for creating a small channel from the belly to the bladder, so children who cannot use their urethra for catheterization can still empty their bladder. It may help children with certain bladder conditions avoid surgery on their urethra.
SohagAges Up to 18 years - NCT06439862Recruiting
Quality of life in children with posterior urethral valves
This study looks at how children with posterior urethral valves (a condition that affects urination) feel about their quality of life as they grow up. It will help doctors understand how these children are doing emotionally and socially, so they can improve care.
Bron, BronAges 6–17 - NCT05681936Recruiting
Brain and spine scans after spinal cord injury or related conditions
This study uses brain and spine scans (and possibly nerve stimulation in some cases) to understand how the nervous system changes after spinal cord injury or certain spinal conditions. It may help researchers better track recovery and understand which changes are linked to symptoms like bladder problems.
ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT07019597Recruiting
Nerve stimulation vs. tibial nerve stimulation for overactive bladder
This study compares two types of non-invasive nerve stimulation (NESA and PTNS) to treat overactive bladder symptoms. It's for people whose medications haven't worked well.
ValenciaAges Any age - NCT07027020RecruitingPhase 3
Bladder oxybutynin for children with spina bifida
This trial tests a liquid form of the medication oxybutynin placed directly into the bladder (via catheter) for children with spina bifida who have bladder overactivity. It may be an option if oral medications haven't worked well or caused side effects.
BesançonAges 6–17 - NCT07390591Recruiting
Patient views on bladder treatments for urinary symptoms
This study asks patients and caregivers about their experiences with bladder washes (instillations) using lactobacillus or gentamicin to manage urinary symptoms. Your feedback could help improve care for others like you.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07091565Enrolling by invitation
Sexual recovery after bladder removal for women
This study explores how bladder cancer and bladder removal surgery affect your sex life and sexual recovery. By sharing your experience in a private interview, you can help doctors and nurses better support other women undergoing similar treatments.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT01293110Recruiting
Lower Urinary Problems Database at Zurich Hospitals
