About this study

Official title: Effect of Pelvic Floor Versus Abdominal Muscle Exercises on Nocturia and Sleep Quality in Women With Type 2 Diabetes

Nocturia is the leading cause of sleep disruption with its subsequent negative impact on general health and QoL for a large proportion of the adult population. Nocturia is prevalent in men and women of all ages but may be particularly bothersome in younger adults, in whom the consequences of sleep disturbance may be more detrimental for daytime functioning and possibly for health and mortality.The underlying causes of nocturia obviously influence the efficacy of different treatment options. Because a major cause of nocturia is overproduction of urine at night, nocturia may not respond to treatments designed to reduce urgency and increase bladder capacity or increase urine flow, such as agents for the management of bladder outlet obstruction.

Read the detailed description

Nocturia may be more than simply a patient inconvenience, in view of its association with increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Clinicians often underestimate the consequences of nocturia, however, and thus fail to perform a thorough evaluation of the condition and its causes. Patients with nocturia deserve full consultation and implementation of an appropriate management strategy to ensure that the specific underlying medical conditions associated with nighttime voiding are addressed. Investigators should help women with nocturia as to improve their sleep. Participants will strengthen their pelvic floor muscles and abdominal muscles to control voiding so their sleep will not disturb to decrease their sufferance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of voids

    Number of times that the patient go for toilet per night for urination

    Measured: 6 weeks

  2. Sleep quality (0 is best, 3 is worst)

    data about sleep from Pittsburgh sleep quality index questionnaire

    Measured: 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Abdominal and pelvic floor muscle electrical activity

    Data described by the electromyograph (EMG)

    Measured: 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing pelvic floor exercise and Abdominal muscles exercise in people with Nocturia and Sleep Deprivation, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 7 inclusion and 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 May 2023. 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 Egypt. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of voids (time frame: 6 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 3 May 2023.
