  • Urinary Tract Infection (UTI): Western and Ayurvedic Diagnosis and Treatment Approaches
    Urinary tract infection (UTI): Western and Ayurvedic Diagnosis and Treatment Approaches. By: Mahsa Ranjbarian Urinary system Renal or Urinary system is one of the 10 body systems that we have. This system is the body drainage system. The urinary system is composed of kidneys (vrikka), ureters (mutravaha nadis), bladder(mutrashaya) and urethra(mutramarga). The kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped, fist size organs that lie in the middle of the back, just below the rib cage, one on each side of the spine. Ureters are tubes that carry the wastes or urine from the kidneys to the bladder. The urine finally exit the body from the urethra when the bladder is full.1 Urethras length is shorter in women than men due to the anatomical differences. Major function of the urinary system is to remove wastes and water from our body through urination. Other important functions of the urinary system are as follows. 1. Prevent dehydration and at the same time prevent the buildup of extra fluid in the body 2. Cleans the blood of metabolic wastes 3. Removing toxins from the body 4. Maintaining the homeostasis of many factors including blood PH and blood pressure 5. Producing erythrocytes 6. make hormones that help regulate blood pressure 7. keep bones strong 8. keep levels of electrolytes, such as potassium and phosphate, stable 2 The Urinary system like any other systems of our body is working under the forces of three doshas, subdoshas. Mutravaha srotas, Ambuvahasrota and raktavahasrota are involved in formation and elimination of the urine. Urine gets separated from the rasa by maladhara kala with the help of pachaka pitta and samana vayu and then through the mutravaha srota(channels carrying the urine) it is taken to the bladder.

  • Urinary Tract Infection (Uti) Fact Sheet
    URINARY TRACT INFECTION (UTI) FACT SHEET Overview A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection that involves any part of the urinary tract, including the kidneys, bladder and urethra. It is usually caused by exposure of the urinary tract to a fecal organism such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) but also may be caused by other organisms. An indwelling urinary catheter is a drainage tube that is inserted into the urinary bladder through the urethra, is left in place and is connected to a closed urine collection system. Urinary tract infections in patients with an indwelling urinary catheter are called catheter-associated UTIs, or CAUTIs. Signs and Symptoms Common symptoms of UTI include: • fever; • pain or burning in the lower abdomen; • burning during urination; • an increase in the frequency of urination; and • cloudy appearing urine. Causes and Transmission A UTI occurs when germs (usually bacteria) enter the urinary tract through the meatus (the opening of the urinary tract). These germs then cause infection. The urinary tract is normally sterile, meaning it contains no germs. A CAUTI occurs when germs (usually bacteria) enter the urinary tract through the urinary catheter and cause infection. This can occur when health care worker hands are not properly cleaned before the insertion of a catheter or during the process of cleaning or emptying of the urine collection system. Risk Factors Sexually active women, people with blockages in the urinary tract, such as prostate enlargement, and women using certain types of birth control, such as diaphragms, or those who are undergoing menopause are at higher risk of UTI.

  • 233 the Use of Absorbent Pads Increases the Risk For
    233 Omli R1, Skotnes L H1, Romild U1, Kuhry E1 1. Namsos Hospital THE USE OF ABSORBENT PADS INCREASES THE RISK FOR LOWER URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS IN NURSING HOMES RESIDENTS. Hypothesis / aims of study Urinary incontinence is a common medical problem in the nursing home population. The aim of this study was to determine whether use of absorbent pads is a risk factor for the development of lower urinary tract infections in nursing home residents. Introduction Lower urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a common medical problem in the elderly. Different kinds of absorbent products, such as diapers, pad and pant combinations, are used in incontinence care. In some cases, indwelling catheters, external condom catheters or in-and-out catheterisation are options for managing bladder dysfunction. About 23% of the residents in nursing homes don’t need toilet assistance. That means that the majority of residents is dependent on help from nursing staff for toileting and help to change soiled absorbent pads. Transmission of bacteria during incontinence care is associated with UTIs in elderly. In the vulnerable nursing home population, UTIs are a frequent problem and can lead to increased morbidity and even mortality. The prevalence of UTIs in nursing home residents is approximately 30%. Improving hand hygiene among staffing in nursing homes is one of the most important and effective methods to reduce hand born transmission of pathological microbes. Studies in long-term-care facilities document a lack of hand hygiene in connection to staff-resident interactions. This study studies the association between the use of absorbent pads and symptomatic UTIs in the nursing home population.

  • Module 3: Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy
    MODULE 3: BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERTROPHY KEYWORDS: Prostatic hypertrophy, prostatic hyperplasia, PSA, voiding dysfunction, lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) At the end of this clerkship, the medical student will be able to: 1. Identify and name the major anatomic and histologic features of the prostate gland 2. Identify the predominant location in the prostate where BPH develops and describe how this fact relates to the symptoms and signs of BPH 3. Define BPH 4. Describe the distinctive epidemiological features and natural history of BPH 5. List the symptoms and signs of BPH 6. List the important components of the history when interviewing a patient with BPH 7. List the important components of the physical exam of a patient with BPH 8. Summarize the laboratory, radiologic, or urodynamic tests, if any, that should be ordered in a patient with BPH 9. List the indications for treatment of BPH 10. List the medical and surgical treatment options for BPH. 11. Describe when a patient with BPH should be referred to a urologist PROSTATE ANATOMY There are four basic anatomic zones of the prostate, as illustrated in Figure 1: the anterior zone, the peripheral zone, the central zone and the transition zone. Figure 1: The zones and glandular regions of the normal prostate. The anterior zone is entirely fibromuscular and non-glandular, and it appears to have little significance in prostatic function or pathology. This area comprises approximately 20% of the bulk of prostatic tissue. The peripheral zone is composed entirely of acinar tissue. It comprises the posterior surface of the prostate, including the apical, lateral, posterolateral and anterolateral portions of the prostate.

  • Urinary Incontinence ! ! !What Is Urinary Incontinence? Leakage of Urine Is Called Urinary Incontinence
    ! ! ! Urinary Incontinence ! ! !What is urinary incontinence? Leakage of urine is called urinary incontinence. Some women leak small amounts of !urine. At other times, leakage of urine is frequent or severe. !Are there different types of urinary incontinence? !There are several types of urinary incontinence: • Stress urinary incontinence is loss of urine when a woman coughs, laughs, or sneezes. Leaks also can happen when a woman walks, runs, or exercises. It is caused by a weakening of the tissues that support the bladder or the muscles of the ! urethra. • Urge incontinence is leakage of urine caused by overactive bladder muscles that ! contract too often or problems with the nerves that send signals to the bladder !• Mixed incontinence is a combination of both stress and urge incontinence symptoms • Overflow incontinence is a steady loss of small amounts of urine when the bladder does not empty all the way during voiding. It can be caused by an underactive bladder ! muscle or blockage of the urethra. !What are the symptoms of urinary incontinence? !In addition to leaking urine, a woman with incontinence also may have other symptoms: • Urgency— A strong urge to urinate whether or not the bladder is full, often with pelvic ! pressure !• Frequency— Voiding more often than she considers usual !• Nocturia — The need to void during hours of sleep !• Dysuria — Painful voiding !• Enuresis— Bed-wetting or leaking while sleeping ! What causes urinary incontinence? ! Urinary incontience can have short-term causes and long-term causes. Short-term !causes are easier to treat and include the following: • Urinary tract infection— Loss of bladder control may be caused by an infection of the urinary tract.

Dept of Urology, Royal Bournemouth Hospital, UK SEASONAL VARIATION IN URINARY FREQUENCY, NOCTURIA, AND OTHER LOWER URINARY TRACT SYMPTOMS IN MEN AND WOMEN Hypothesis / aims of study At a population level there are small seasonal effects on the prevalence of clinically relevant lower urinary tract storage symptoms [1], and a significant interaction with overactive bladder treatment response [2]. However, the effect of temperature variation on clinical assessment of lower urinary tract symptoms has not been explored. The aim of this study was to assess the association between atmospheric temperature, bladder diary variables, symptom severity, and urodynamic parameters in men and women with lower urinary tract symptoms. Study design, materials and methods Data were collected at two urodynamic units, Centre 1 situated at 55°52′N, equivalent to Moscow, and Centre 2 at 51°30′N, equivalent to Rotterdam, both with maritime temperate climates (Köppen classification Cfb). Consecutive men and women referred for evaluation were asked to complete both a 3 day frequency-volume chart, and a standardised lower urinary tract symptom and quality of life questionnaire (International Prostate Symptoms Score for men, and King’s Health Questionnaire for women), before undergoing free uroflowmetry, and where indicated, multichannel saline cystometry. Local mean monthly temperatures for each centre were extracted from national meteorological records.
