简要总结

A virtual prospective randomized controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of using the leva® Pelvic Digital Health System (PDHS) to perform PFMT compared to a standard home exercise home program for the treatment of SUI/SMUI. The treatment part of the study lasts eight weeks and has two arms. One group will receive routine care consisting of at-home Kegel exercises, and the other will be provided with a leva® device and instructions for use. Subjects in both groups will be assessed at baseline, then at 4 and 8 weeks for change and improvement of their symptoms. They will also be assessed at 6 and12 months after study completion.

详细描述

This trial is entirely virtual. No office visits, specific locations, or physical examination will be required. Enrollment may occur from any location in the United States

  • A virtual prospective randomized controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of using the leva® PDHS to perform PFMT (leva arm) compared to standard care of a PFM exercise home program (Kegel arm) for the treatment of SUI or SMUI.
  • Following completion of e-consent and screening, including an initial bladder diary and introductory phone call to review the study requirements, subjects are considered officially enrolled.
  • A series of baseline assessments will be administered to all subjects to evaluate symptom severity, frequency and impact.
  • Subjects will then be randomized to either the leva® arm or Kegel arm on a 1 to 1 ratio using block randomization. Prior to initiation of the trial, a randomization sequence will be generated by the ObvioHealth system. Participants will be automatically allocated the next available slot in the sequence at the time of their randomization and assigned to the leva® or Kegel group accordingly.
  • Prior to beginning the program, subjects in the Kegel arm will receive printed instructions for PFMT with Kegel exercises. Subjects in the leva® arm will be shipped the leva® digital device, along with instructions for use and how to download the corresponding digital app. Day 1 of the study begins the day following receipt of materials.
  • Study population: women with SUI or SMUI.
  • The study requires no office visits. All participant data will be entered in the subject's smartphone using a custom designed mobile application. Participants will be able to interact with the app throughout the study period and will be presented with surveys and a voiding diary on a specified schedule during an 8-week treatment period. There will also be expected post-intervention follow up surveys at 6- and 12-months
  • Using virtual recruiting, a total of up to 350 subjects will be enrolled in the trial.
  • Subjects in both arms will have three scheduled phone calls with study staff during the first two weeks of treatment.
  • Subjects can speak to the study staff at any time via an in-app chat function, the phone, or videoconference.

结局指标

主要结局

Efficacy - Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI-6)

时间窗: Baseline, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 6 months and 12 months

UDI-6 is a validated questionnaire assessing symptom presence and degree of bother. It will be used to compare the degree of symptom change in the leva arm vs the Kegel arm within and between groups.

Efficacy - Bladder diaries

时间窗: Baseline and 8 weeks

Bladder diaries evaluating the average number of stress-incontinence episodes in 3 days will be compared within and between groups
