About this study

The aim of our study is a comparison of the effects of external electrical stimulation protocols in women with overactive bladder (OAB).

Read the detailed description

OAB is a condition defined by the International Continence Society as the presence of urinary urgency, usually accompanied by frequency and nocturia, with or without urgency urinary incontinence, in the absence of urinary tract infection or other obvious pathology. External electrical stimulation has positive effects on OAB. However, there are not enough studies on how often this stimulation is applied. Studies are needed on this subject.

Being tested
Electrical stimulation 1, Electrical stimulation 2
Medical subject headings
Urinary Bladder, Overactive

What participants receive

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

  • Electrical stimulation 1Other

    External electrical stimulation will be applied for 30 minutes 3 days a week during 6 weeks. Electrodes were placed around the pelvis.

  • Electrical stimulation 2Other

    External electrical stimulation will be applied for 30 minutes one day a week during 6 weeks. Electrodes were placed around the pelvis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overactive bladder symptoms

    Overactive bladder symptoms will be assessed with the Overactive Bladder-V8 Questionnaire

    Measured: change from baseline at 3 weeks and 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Urgency severity

    Urgency severity will be assessed with Patients' Perception of Intensity of Urgency Scale

    Measured: change from baseline at 3 weeks and 6 weeks

  2. Bladder functions

    Bladder functions will be assessed with voiding diary

    Measured: change from baseline at 3 weeks and 6 weeks

  3. Life quality

    Life quality will be assessed with the King's Health Questionnaire

    Measured: change from baseline at 3 weeks and 6 weeks

  4. Strength of pelvic floor muscle

    Strength of pelvic floor muscle will be assessed with Modified Oxford Scale

    Measured: change from baseline at 3 weeks and 6 weeks

  5. Perception of recovery

    Perception of recovery will be assessed with a 4-point Likert scale

    Measured: change from baseline at 3 weeks and 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Electrical stimulation 1 and Electrical stimulation 2 in people with Overactive Bladder, run by Ankara Yildirim Beyazıt University.

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 3 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jan 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Seyda Toprak Celenay (+90312 906 1000, sydtoprak@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overactive bladder symptoms (time frame: change from baseline at 3 weeks and 6 weeks). 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 5 Jan 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
