BTL Emsella chair vs sham for overactive bladder relief
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a specialized chair treatment (BTL Emsella) can reduce bladder urgency and overactive bladder symptoms compared with a sham (placebo) chair session. It may help people who have already tried behavioral steps and/or bladder medications but still have symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests medicines to reduce “urgency” urine leakage (when you suddenly feel you must go) and to see whether improving bladder control also helps overall mental and physical health. You may be eligible if you have had these symptoms for at least 3 months and can follow the study plan.
This study compares two ways to help women with overactive bladder get treatment and stick with it. You might be able to join if you are a woman with ongoing OAB symptoms and haven't had certain treatments recently.
This trial tests a nerve stimulation treatment (TTNS) to improve bladder symptoms like urgency or frequent urination in people with multiple sclerosis. It is a randomized controlled study comparing this approach to a control, and aims to see if it can reduce bothersome bladder issues.
This trial tests a relaxation-based pelvic floor training program for women with overactive bladder and constipation. It may help improve bladder control and bowel function.
This trial compares an Emsella chair treatment to a sham (fake) treatment to help men with ejaculation difficulties. It wants to see whether the chair improves symptoms when other options have not helped enough.
This study compares the Emsella chair treatment to a fake (sham) treatment to see which works better for stress urinary incontinence—leaking urine with coughing, laughing, or exertion. If you qualify, you may get the real chair, and you will complete questionnaires and follow specific rules about other treatments.
