Video Summary
In the first video, different techniques for cystoscopic ureteral stent placement are discussed and demonstrated on a cadaver. These include traditional external stents, lighted ureteral stents, and internal double-J stents with fluoroscopy. The video also introduces a novel treatment called SALENSA, which uses radiofrequency energy to ablate nerves in the subtrigonal space to target overactive bladder symptoms. A study with 71 female patients found that SALENSA was well tolerated and resulted in improvements in urinary incontinence and quality of life.<br /><br />In the second video, findings from a study comparing an incontinence pessary to the over-the-counter product Poise Impressa for stress urinary incontinence management are presented. The study with 25 participants found no statistical difference between the two products in reducing symptoms or improving quality of life. However, patients in the pessary group reported a higher preference for the therapy. Safety concerns regarding the use of Poise Impressa, such as frequent replacement and potential skin irritation, are discussed. The speaker suggests that the pessary may be a more favorable option due to its convenience and long-lasting effects, but further research is needed to confirm these findings and compare it with other non-invasive treatments.
