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 .
The Effect of Behavioral Therapy on Urinary Incontinence: A Randomized Controlled Trial
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of a low‐intensity behavioral therapy program on urinary incontinence in older women . METHODS A r and omized clinical trial for community‐dwelling women at least 55 years reporting at least one urinary incontinent episode per week was conducted . Women were r and omly assigned to a behavioral therapy group ( n = 77 ) or a control group ( n = 75 ) . The treatment group had six weekly instructional sessions on bladder training and followed individualized voiding schedules . The control group received no instruction but kept urinary diaries for 6 weeks . After this period , the control group underwent the behavioral therapy protocol . Using per‐ protocol analyses , t and χ2 tests were used to compare the treatment and control groups , and paired t tests were used to evaluate the efficacy of behavioral therapy for all women ( treatment and control groups before and after behavioral therapy ) . RESULTS Women in the treatment group experienced a 50 % reduction in mean number of incontinent episodes recorded on a 7‐day urinary diary compared with a 15 % reduction for controls ( P = .001 ) . After behavioral therapy , all women had a 40 % decrease in mean weekly incontinent episodes ( P = .001 ) , which was maintained over 6 months ( P < .004 ) . Thirty ( 31 % ) women were 100 % improved ( dry ) , 40 ( 41 % ) were at least 75 % improved , and 50 ( 52 % ) at least 50 % improved . There were no differences in treatment efficacy by type of incontinence ( stress , urge , mixed ) or group assignment ( treatment , control ) . CONCLUSION A low‐intensity behavioral therapy intervention for urinary incontinence was effective and should be considered as a first‐line treatment for urinary incontinence in older women
