Urethral bulking gel for stress urinary incontinence
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a gel injected around the urethra to help it stay closed and prevent urine leaks during activity. It may be an option for women whose stress incontinence hasn't improved with other treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two procedures for stress urinary incontinence: a bulking agent injection and a single-incision sling. If you're a woman who leaks urine with activity, you may be randomly assigned to get one of these treatments to see which works better over time.
This trial tests an adjustable treatment to reduce stress urinary incontinence (urine leaking when you cough, sneeze, or exercise). It’s for women who still leak after trying other treatments and who may be able to have surgery, while excluding certain bladder problems and health risks.
This trial tests whether using a TENS device (a mild electrical stimulation machine) during an in-office urethral bulking procedure helps reduce pain. If you are a woman with stress urinary incontinence scheduled for this treatment, you may be able to join.
This trial tests whether a single injection of stem cells from donated fat tissue can help women over 50 with stress urinary incontinence. It is for those who haven't gotten better with exercises or who want to avoid surgery.
This study tests a new device called an artificial urinary sphincter that is implanted to help control severe stress urinary incontinence (leakage when coughing, sneezing, or exercising) in women. The device aims to provide a long-term solution for those who have not improved with other treatments.
This trial tests whether a modified mesh improves success rates in a common sling surgery for stress urinary incontinence. It is for women who have not improved with non-surgical treatments and are already planning to have this procedure.
