Urinary Incontinence clinical trials at UCSF
2 research studies open to eligible people
Urinary incontinence refers to a lack of control over urination. UCSF is exploring if doing pelvic exercises as a group can help after laser surgery. Additionally, researchers are comparing medicines to find which better supports mental and physical health in incontinence.
TReating Incontinence for Underlying Mental and Physical Health

Group Preoperative Pelvic Floor Training for HoLEP
open to eligible males ages 50-90
The main goal of this study is to see if group pelvic floor training before surgery can help prevent urinary incontinence after Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) surgery. The study has the potential to inform preoperative intervention strategies for managing incontinence after HoLEP.
