IDB Injection Combined With PTNS for Managing Children With OAB Not Responding to Monotherapy

August 14, 2023 updated by: Tamer Abd El-Wahab Diab, Benha University

Efficacy and Safety of Intradetrusor BOTOX Injection Combined With Percutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation for Managing Children With Overactive Bladder Not Responding to Monotherapy

This study aimed to evaluate the outcome of simultaneous intradetrusor BOTOX (IDB) injection and Percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) for management of children with recurrent wetness since at least 6 months.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Overactive bladder is a syndrome characterized by symptoms of urgency, with or without urgency incontinence, usually with increased daytime frequency and nocturia. The Neurogenic or myogenic bladder dysfunction can lead to the symptoms that characterize Overactive bladder. Normal bladder contraction occurs when the muscarinic receptors in the detrusor muscle are stimulated with acetylcholine. Although the pathogenesis of Overactive bladder is not fully explained; sensitization of afferent nerves, deactivation of inhibitory mechanisms, and the emergence of contractions similar to primitive voiding reflexes are shown as pathogenetic mechanisms. Another hypothesis is that the number of intercellular connections among detrusor myocytes increase, and these cells are spontaneously stimulated.

In addition to the fact that the etiopathogenesis cannot be explained clearly and due to the intense relationship with the autonomic nervous system, undesirable systemic side effects are common in treatments applied.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overactive bladder symptom score
Time Frame: Baseline, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after the intervention
the Overactive bladder symptom score (OABSS) questionnaire will be calculated which consists of four items; namely, daytime frequency (score: 0-2), night-time frequency (score: 0-3), urgency (score: 0-5), and urgency incontinence (score: 0-5). The results scores were summed and a score of>8 suggesting an overactive bladder
Baseline, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after the intervention

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Patient Perception of Bladder Condition (PPBC) scale
Time Frame: Baseline, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after the intervention
The Patient Perception of Bladder Condition (PPBC) scale will be calculated which includes 6-point describing patient's comment of his/her bladder problems and ranging from 1: Not at all, 2: Some very minor, 3: Some minor, 4: some moderate, 5: severe, 6: many severe problems.
Baseline, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after the intervention
Patients' satisfaction
Time Frame: Up to the 12-month follow-up period
The Patients' satisfaction will be assessed by the Likert scale (self-report scale where 0 = strong dissatisfaction, 1 = dissatisfaction, 2 = neutral, 3 = satisfaction, and 4 = strong satisfaction)
Up to the 12-month follow-up period
