Age-specific Prevalence and Comparisons of UDS and Bladder Diary Between OAB-wet and -Dry Women

Completed

• Conditions: Urinary Bladder, Overactive
• Interventions: Diagnostic Test: Bladder diary

• Registration Number: NCT03807024
• Lead Sponsor: National Taiwan University Hospital

Brief Summary

The knowledge of the age-specific prevalence of overactive bladder syndrome (OAB)-wet and -dry women is important for understanding the impact of aging on OAB. Thus, our aim is to describe clinically differences between OAB-wet and -dry women.

Detailed Description

Between July 2009 and January 2018, all women with OAB visiting a medical center for evaluation were reviewed. The classification of OAB-wet or OAB-dry is based on the record of the three-day bladder diary of each patient. The diagnosis of OAB in each patient was based on the presence of at least one episode of urgency in her three-day bladder diary and with the absence of stress urinary incontinence. The presence of at least one episode of urgency associated incontinence was defined to be OAB-wet, otherwise, OAB-dry.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
OAB-wet	Bladder diary	The diagnosis of OAB in each patient was based on the presence of at least one episode of urgency in her three-day bladder diary and with the absence of stress urinary incontinence. The presence of at least one episode of urgency associated incontinence was defined to be OAB-wet.
OAB-dry	Bladder diary	The diagnosis of OAB in each patient was based on the presence of at least one episode of urgency in her three-day bladder diary and with the absence of stress urinary incontinence. The absence of urgency associated incontinence was defined to be OAB-dry.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Diagnosis of OAB	Between July 2009 and January 2018	Diagnosis of OAB according to ICS terminology guideline: Urgency, with or without urge incontinence, usually with frequency and nocturia, can be described as the overactive bladder syndrome, urge syndrome or urgency-frequency syndrome

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Age-specific comparison	Between July 2009 and January 2018	Use questionnaire and urodynamic study to evaluate if there is difference between OAB-wet and OAB-dry women
