Study of a new artificial urinary sphincter for men with stress incontinence
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a new device called UrOActive that helps men with stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when coughing, sneezing, or moving). It aims to see if the device is safe and works well to control leaks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares pelvic floor movement between healthy women and women with stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when coughing, sneezing, or laughing). It aims to build a system to assess pelvic floor function, which may help improve diagnosis and treatment.
This study compares two surgical procedures for stress urinary incontinence (leakage of urine during activities like coughing or sneezing) in women. The goal is to see which approach provides better results, potentially improving quality of life.
This study tests a device for women with a specific amount of urine leakage caused by stress (like coughing). But if your main problem is a sudden urge to go, or you have a constant dribble, you won't qualify.
This trial tests a new implant that stimulates a nerve in your pelvic area to help control both stress and urge urine leaks. It might be an option if you've tried other treatments like bladder training or medicine and they didn't help enough or caused side effects.
This study tests a new type of vaginal treatment that uses electromagnetic energy to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles and help reduce stress urinary incontinence (leaking when you cough, sneeze, or laugh). It is an alternative to surgery, and the researchers want to see how well it works and if it is safe.
This study follows men who have urine leakage from stress (leakage with movement/coughing) after prostate surgery and receive a ProACT device. It looks at long-term outcomes over 5 years and checks safety, including for those who may need device removal or other treatments.
