Trial summary

Uroflowmetry(UF) has been the standard first-line diagnostic tool for the evaluation of pediatric voiding dysfunction. But recently, UF combined with pelvic flow electromyography(EMG) is emphasized and recommended to analyze the separate contributions of the detrusor and bladder outlet and sole UF is discouraged… Read more about this study

About this study

Uroflowmetry(UF) has been the standard first-line diagnostic tool for the evaluation of pediatric voiding dysfunction. But recently, UF combined with pelvic flow electromyography(EMG) is emphasized and recommended to analyze the separate contributions of the detrusor and bladder outlet and sole UF is discouraged except for the follow-up study after abnormal UF/EMG result(Bauer et al., 2015). However, electrode itself can disturb pelvic floor relaxation and there is no evidence about necessity of consecutive UF/EMG test. Therefore, the investigators are going to compare three different methods (Primary-Secondary: UF/EMG-UF/EMG, UF/EMG-sole UF, sole UF-UF/EMG)

What participants receive

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

  • Combining electromyography with uroflowmetry (group A)Biological

    Children who assigned group A perform uroflowmetry-electromyography for the first and subsequently perform uroflowmetry-electromyography again.

  • Uroflowmetry(Group B)Biological

    Children who assigned Group B perform uroflowmetry-electromyography for the first, and subsequently perform sole uroflowmetry.

  • Uroflowmetry-Combining electromyography with uroflowmetry (Group C)Biological

    Children who assigned Group C firstly perform sole uroflowmetry and subsequently perform uroflowmetry-electromyography.

What is being measured

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

  1. maximum flow rate(Qmax=cc/s)

    The maximum flow rate is the most important uroflowmetry index to diagnose bladder outlet obstruction or bladder contractility.

    Measured: One day

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Uroflow curve pattern

    Uroflow curve pattern: There are 5 uroflow curve patterns, bell-shaped, tower-shaped, interrupted-shaped, staccato-shaped and plateau shaped by uroflowmetry. The shape is determined by detrusor contractility and influenced by abdominal straining, coordination with the bladder outlet musculature and any distal anatomic obstruction.

    Measured: One day

  2. post void residual

    post-void residual(cc): ultrasonographic bladder scan machines calculates bladder volume. PVR measurements in neurologically intact children are highly variable. PVR must be obtained immediately after voiding(<5min)

    Measured: One day

  3. synergy or dyssynergy between the bladder and the pelvic floor.

    synergy or dyssynergy between the bladder and the pelvic floor is abstained by combining electromyography with uroflowmetry.

    Measured: One day

Model description
Children who meet the inclusion criteria and no exclusion criteria are assigned to perform one of the three test protocols in order of registration according to a computer gererated randomization list. Children who assigned group A perform uroflowmetry-electromyography for the first and subsequently perform uroflowmetry-electromyography again. Children who assigned Group B perform uroflowmetry-electromyography for the first, and subsequently perform sole uroflowmetry. Children who assigned Group C firstly perform sole uroflowmetry and subsequently perform uroflowmetry-electromyography.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Combining electromyography with uroflowmetry (group A), Uroflowmetry(Group B) and Uroflowmetry-Combining electromyography with uroflowmetry (Group C) in people with Enuresis, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yong Seung Lee, MD (82-2-2228-2310, asforthelord@yuhs.ac), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

maximum flow rate(Qmax=cc/s) (time frame: One day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Jan 2019.
