Adult Stem Cell Research- Incontinence Trial in Michigan

Good news for women with stress incontinence living in the Michigan area-  they are beginning a clinical trial to treat stress incontinence with the patient's own Adult Stem Cells.

Stress incontinence is the involuntary loss of urine associated with the activity such as coughing and sneezing, lifting, laughing, running.

This disease affects approximately 13 million Americans, most of them women.

From the article:

Current treatments, including medicine, exercises and surgery, are not always effective and may have undesirable side effects.

The stem cells from 48 female research participants age 18 or older will be collected at Beaumont Hospital, Royal Oak, and duplicated. The cells will then be injected into the muscles that control urination to strengthen them and prevent leakage.

"If successful, muscle-derived stem cell therapy could offer new hope to people looking to live a life free of urinary leakage," says Urology department Chairman Kenneth Peters, M.D., who is leading the research at Beaumont.



Beaumont Hospital in Michigan will be conducting this trial that is accepting women only at this time  Call Debbie Hasenau, R.N., at (248) 551-3355 for more information.

This stem cell treatment has been going on for at least 4-5 years in Europe, thus proving once again that the USA is far behind in accepting stem cell therapy which could benefit millions.
