Behavioural Therapy With Checklist for Overactive Bladder

September 7, 2018 updated by: Muhammet Fatih Kilinc, Ankara Training and Research Hospital

Checklist to Increase Effectiveness of Behavioural Therapy for Overactive Bladder

The aim of this study is to investigate the efficiency of this newly-established checklist for overactive bladder (OAB) and whether determinate to adherence and persistence rate of combination of behavioural therapy and anticholinergic medications in patients with OAB.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Overactive bladder (OAB) can worsen quality of life but it is not life-threatening condition. Although OAB medications effectively decrease disturbing symptoms of OAB, there are a lot of adverse side effects such as dry mouth, cognitive changes, constipation, urinary retention, blurred vision and dyspepsia. Therefore, guidelines have firstly recommended behavioural therapy which are noninvasive and not linked with adverse side effects. These behavioural recommendations include an advice on fluid balance, bladder retraining, urgency suppression or normal voiding techniques, pelvic floor muscle training, caffeine reduction, dietary changes, weight loss and other life style changes to improve lower urinary tract symptoms of OAB.

Educational leaflets, verbal or audio-visual instructions and trainings for behavioural therapy have been recommended for patients with OAB, however, to date these beneficial instructions have not been documented as a written checklist. Therefore, they were collected and developed as a written checklist to instruct the patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficiency of this newly-established checklist for OAB and whether determinate to adherence and persistence rate of combination of behavioural therapy and anticholinergic medications in patients with OAB.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Time Frame
Urinary frequency
Time Frame: 6 months
>8 micturitions per day

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
