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 .
Comparison of electric stimulation and oxybutynin chloride in management of overactive bladder with special reference to urinary urgency: a randomized placebo-controlled trial.
OBJECTIVES To compare the efficacy of electric stimulation ( ES ) , oxybutynin , and placebo in managing the symptom complex of overactive bladder ( OAB ) , particularly urgency . METHODS A r and omized placebo-controlled trial was conducted for 68 patients with OAB , placing emphasis on urinary urgency . The interventions for the 12-week treatment period , conducted by the physiotherapist , who was unaware of the progress and outcome , included a vaginal ES program using biphasic symmetric , pulsed current with a 10-Hz frequency , 400-micros pulse width , 10/5 duty cycle , and varying intensity ; and oxybutynin ( 2.5 mg ) or placebo three times per day . Identical preintervention and postintervention assessment s included the measurement of warning time , urodynamics , voiding diaries , and King 's Health Question naire . RESULTS Of the 68 women who completed this study , 24 were in the ES , 23 in the oxybutynin , and 21 in the placebo group . The between-group comparison showed that significant improvements in daily voided volume , pad count , number of urgency and nocturia episodes , and the domain 2 score and total score of the King 's Health Question naire existed between the ES and the other groups ( all P < or = 0.050 ) . The changes in warning time , maximal voided volume , number of urgency episodes , and frequency were significantly improved between oxybutynin and placebo ( all P < 0.013 ) . Additionally , a comparison of the voided volume in uroflowmetry between the ES and placebo groups revealed a greater difference after treatment ( P = 0.013 ) . The reduction rate of OAB was 58.4 % for the ES , 39.1 % for the oxybutynin , and 9.5 % for the placebo group ( P = 0.036 ) . CONCLUSIONS ES had the greatest subjective outcome for OAB and was the most effective of the three treatments . Oxybutynin was more effective than placebo
