Arms & Interventions
Experimental Arm

Intervention: Phenazopyridine Hydrochloride 99.5 MG (Drug)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Difference in pain scores, as measured by visual analog scale between study groups at 4 to 6 hours after urodynamic testing
Time Frame: 4 to 6 hours after testing
Scores are measured on a 100mm VAS. The VAS ranges from 0 to 100 with 0 indicating no pain and higher scores indicating greater pain.
Secondary Outcomes
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - first sensation(at time of testing)
- Difference in anxiety scores, as measured by visual analog scale between study groups at predetermined time points.(baseline (immediately prior to testing), immediately after testing, 4 to 6 hours after testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - capacity(at time of testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - first desire(at time of testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - strong desire(at time of testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - max flow rate(at time of testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - UDS procedure length time(at time of testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - voided volume(at time of testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - valsalva leak point pressure(at time of testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - void time(at time of testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - average flow rate(at time of testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - post void residual volume(at time of testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - flow time(at time of testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - max detrusor pressure(at time of testing)
- Number of patient communications(Per single participant (24 hours after completion of UDS testing))
- Would patients repeat urodynamic testing(4 to 6 hours after testing)
- Difference in Urodynamic voiding parameters between experimental group and known normal values - time to max flow(at time of testing)
