  • Women are free from any other gynecological disorders or symptoms that may affect the results of the study.
  • All participants who will be enrolled in the study sign the informed consent form.
  • All participants will be of multiparas.
  • All participants will be diagnosed with a mild degree of stress urinary incontinence.

Who cannot join

  • Pregnancy
  • Neurological Disorders: such as Parkinson's disease , multiple sclerosis, or any neurological dysfunction that may affect the gait parameters
  • Musculoskeletal disorders: such as severe osteoarthritis or lower limb amputations
  • Significant cognitive impairment: or dementia

About this study

This study will contribute to the existing body of knowledge on stress urinary incontinence and its impact on gait. The findings may have implications for the development of targeted interventions and rehabilitation strategies to improve mobility and quality of life in women with stress urinary incontinence

Read the detailed description

Use the provided software or tools to analyze the recorded data, including (cadence, velocity, swing, and double limb support, stride time, step length, and stride length) of gait. The software measures the cadence as total number of steps per minute, and it measures the stride time as the time (in sec) from heel strike of one limb to the next heel strike of the same limb. Also, the software measures the duration of stance, swing, and double limb support as percentage of stride time. Also, the software measures the step and stride length (in cm).

Being tested
Incontinence Symptom Severity Index, Force platform, The STT three-dimensional motion analysis (3DMA) system
Medical subject headings
Urinary Incontinence, Stress

What participants receive

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

  • Incontinence Symptom Severity IndexOther

    Also called (ISSI).

    • The ISSI consists of eight items that assess different aspects of urinary incontinence symptoms, including emptying difficulties, nocturia, daytime frequency, stress incontinence, urge incontinence, leakage with activity, and pad use.
    • Each item is scored on a scale of (0 to 3) or (0 to 4), depending on the severity of the symptom. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms.
    • The total ISSI score is obtained by summing the scores of all eight items, resulting in a range of 0 to 32 or 0 to 40, depending on the version used.
    • The severity of urinary incontinence symptoms can be categorized based on the total ISSI score
  • Force platformOther

    Use the provided software or tools to analyze the recorded force data, including Step Cycle Duration (ms), Time of Contact (ms), Swing Duration (ms), Single Step Duration (ms), Double Support Duration (ms), Initial Contact (ms) , Loading Response (ms), Mid Stance (ms), Terminal Stance (ms), Step Cycle Length, Half Step Length for left and right lower limbs.

    • Interpret the data to draw conclusions about the forces exerted during the subject's movements or activities.
  • The STT three-dimensional motion analysis (3DMA) systemOther

    The STT three-dimensional motion analysis (3DMA) system (STT Systems Company, Zuatzu Business Park, Easo Building, 2nd Floor, San Sebastián, Spain) was used for the assessment of spatiotemporal characteristics of gait. It is an indoor optical system that consists of four cameras, fifteen markers, and computer software for automatic three-dimensional motion capture and analysis. CLINICAL 3DMA V.6.11 is professional software with highly accurate marker tracking. The STT Helen Hayes protocol was used for the gait analysis in this study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incontinence Symptom Severity Index

    The Incontinence Symptom Severity Index (ISSI) is a self-assessment instrument used to measure the severity of female urinary storage and voiding symptoms.

    Measured: one day

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Force platform

    After data collection, the recorded data is analysed to extract various gait parameters. These parameters include: Srtide lengh for left and right lower limbs, Srtide time for left and right lower limbs, Step Cycle Duration (ms), Time of Contact (ms), Swing Duration (ms), Double Support Duration (ms).The findings from the gait analysis are typically documented in a report to be used for statistical analysis.

    Measured: one day

  2. The STT three-dimensional motion analysis (3DMA) system

    The STT three-dimensional motion analysis (3DMA) system (STT Systems Company, Zuatzu Business Park, Easo Building, 2nd Floor, San Sebastián, Spain) was used for the assessment of spatiotemporal characteristics of gait. It is an indoor optical system that consists of four cameras, fifteen markers, and computer software for automatic three-dimensional motion capture and analysis. CLINICAL 3DMA V.6.11 is professional software with highly accurate marker tracking. The STT Helen Hayes protocol was used for the gait analysis in this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gait and Stress Urinary Incontinence, 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 6 inclusion and 7 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 21 Jun 2024. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Alaa M Khedr, BSc (00201555001550, alaa.khedr@deltauniv.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incontinence Symptom Severity Index (time frame: one day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06468891, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
