Pelvic floor exercises are more effective in subjective and objective outcomes with biofeedback or verbal feedback .
Weight loss with diet and exercise , caffeine reduction , 25 - 50 % reduction in fluid intake , and pelvic floor muscle exercises with verbal instruction and or biofeedback were all efficacious .
Botulinum toxin A improves urge incontinence episodes , urgency , frequency , quality of life , nocturia , and urodynamic testing parameters .
Acupuncture  improves quality of life and urodynamic testing parameters .
Extracorporeal magnetic stimulation improves urodynamic parameters .
Mirabegron improves daily incontinence episodes , nocturia , number of daily voids , and urine volume per void , whereas solabegron improves daily incontinence episodes .
Short-term posterior tibial nerve stimulation is more efficacious than pelvic floor muscle training exercises and behavioral therapy for improving : urgency , urinary incontinence episodes , daily voids , volume per void , and overall quality of life .
Sacral neuromodulation is more efficacious than antimuscarinic treatment for subjective improvement of overactive bladder and quality of life .
Transvaginal electrical stimulation demonstrates subjective improvement in overactive bladder symptoms and urodynamic parameters .
Multiple therapies , including physical therapy , behavioral therapy , botulinum toxin A , acupuncture , magnetic stimulation , mirabegron , posterior tibial nerve stimulation , sacral neuromodulation , and transvaginal electrical stimulation , are efficacious in the treatment of overactive bladder
The purpose of the study was to determine the efficacy and safety of nonantimuscarinic treatments for overactive bladder .
Refractory idiopathic urge urinary incontinence and botulinum A injection.
PURPOSE We compared 200 U intradetrusor botulinum toxin A vs placebo in women with refractory idiopathic urge incontinence . MATERIAL S AND METHODS This institutional review board approved , multicenter registered trial r and omized women with refractory urge incontinence , detrusor overactivity incontinence and 6 or greater urge incontinence episodes in 3 days to botulinum toxin A or placebo at a 2:1 ratio . Refractory was defined as inadequate symptom control after 2 or more attempts at pharmacotherapy and 1 or more other first line therapies for detrusor overactivity incontinence . The primary outcome measure was time to failure , as evidence d by a Patient Global Impression of Improvement score of 4 or greater at least 2 months after injection , or changes in treatment ( initiation or increase ) at any time after injection . Safety data , including increased post-void residual volume , defined as more than 200 ml irrespective of symptoms , was obtained at specified time points . RESULTS Approximately 60 % of the women who received botulinum toxin A had a clinical response based on the Patient Global Impression of Improvement . The median duration of their responses was 373 days , significantly longer than the 62 days or less for placebo ( p < 0.0001 ) . In the botulinum toxin A group increased post-void residual urine ( 12 of 28 women or 43 % ) and urinary tract infection in those with increased post-void residual urine ( 9 of 12 or 75 % ) exceeded expected ranges . Further injections were stopped after 43 patients were r and omized , including 28 to botulinum toxin A and 15 to placebo . CONCLUSIONS Local injection of 200 U botulinum toxin A was an effective and durable treatment for refractory overactive bladder . However , a transient post-void residual urine increase was experienced in 43 % of patients . Botulinum toxin A for idiopathic overactive bladder is still under investigation
