About this study

Official title: Prospective Interventional Safety and Efficacy Study of USTRAP™ in Male Urinary Incontinence. an Open, Randomised, Multicentre Study Versus Artificial Sphincter.

Few surgical methods to treat male stress urinary incontinence have been assessed in comparative, randomised interventional studies.

Ustrap is a new adjustable-pressure 4-arm device. The artificial sphincter is currently considered the gold standard device in this field.

The aim of this randomised prospective international study is to assess the efficacy and safety of the Ustrap® device comparatively with an artificial sphincter (AMS800) in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence following prostate removal in cancer patients.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Ustrap®Device

    Patients will receive Ustrap® under general or loco-regional anaesthesia, by perineal approach.

  • AMS 800®Device

    Patients will receive AMS 800® under general or loco-regional anaesthesia. Small openings are made near the scrotum and below the abdomen to insert an inflatable cuff, a pump and a small balloon (pressure regulating balloon).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. comparison of succes rate

    Succes being defined as the absence of use of protective pads, or in the case of use of safety protection comprising a test PAD over 24h, wet weight indicating collection of ≤ 10 g liquid, and the absence of corrective surgery.

    Measured: 12 months
