Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Absence of post-operative symptoms
The primary end-point regarding the tolerability and safety of the device will be verified by interviewing the patient about the appearance of post-operative irritative symptoms and the ease of use of the system. The outcome will be evaluated on the basis of the onset of any surgical complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. This classification (consisting of 7 grades such as I, II, IIIa, Illb, IVa, IVb, V) is widely used and has become the standard classification system for many surgical specialties.
90 days
Performance of the implantation
Implant performance will be assessed in terms of implant migration via an ultrasound at 10, 30 and 60 days after the application of the magnetic endourethral sphincter, in order to verify the correct positioning and stability of the device.
60 days
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Efficacy of the implantation on the disease

Main group
EXPERIMENTALA second no-random open interventional pilot study sponsored by Relief srl. The primary objectives of the study were to assess the safety and reproducibility of the implantation of the magnetic endo-urethral sphincter, if the procedure was well tolerated by the patients, and if possible irritation symptoms due to the device presence emerged in patients with severe stress urinary incontinence where standard medical treatments failed. The device will be implanted by endoscopic procedure by a standard resectoscope. Up to 20 patients of both gender affected by severe stress urinary incontinence will be involved in the study by means of prospective enrollment.
Interventions
The device will be implanted by endoscopic procedure by a standard resectoscope.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Male patients aged from 45 to 85 years-old suffering from secondary Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) to prostate surgery in which medical and rehabilitative treatment have failed;
- women patients aged from 45 to 85 years-old suffering from SUI in which medical, rehabilitative and surgical treatment have failed;
- sterile urine culture;
- flexible cystoscopy demonstrating sphincter dysfunction and excluding stenosis of the urethra or vesicourethral anastomosis.
You may not qualify if:
- No-autonomous patients;
- People where the use of magnetic field is not suggested (i.e. patients with pacemaker).
- Patients with urinary infections;
- Patients with intolerances to the materials included in the sphincter or to expected drug subministration.
- Patients already participating a clinical study within the last 30 days.
- Patients that already have devices/solutions or part of them for the treatment of urinary incontinence.
