Radiofrequency treatment for overactive bladder in women
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a new procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to calm the nerve responsible for overactive bladder in women. It aims to reduce urge-related urine leaks without surgery or medications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman between 22 and 80 years old.
- You have had overactive bladder (sudden urges to urinate with leaks) for at least 6 months.
- You have at least 7 urge-related leaks over 3 days (more than leaks from coughs or sneezes).
