Trial summary

Women with symptoms of voiding dysfunction may be associated with detrusor underactivity (DU) or bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). The treatment strategies are different between DU and BOO. In general, urodynamic/videourodynamic studies are important for differential diagnosis. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Urodynamically Age-specific Prevalence of Detrusor Underactivity and Bladder Outlet Obstruction in Female Voiding Dysfunction Without Cystocele

Women with symptoms of voiding dysfunction may be associated with detrusor underactivity (DU) or bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). The treatment strategies are different between DU and BOO. In general, urodynamic/videourodynamic studies are important for differential diagnosis. However, urodynamic/videourodynamic studies are invasive. The investigators are interested in whether there were specific symptoms or measurements that can be used for initial differential diagnosis between DU and BOO. Thus, the aim of this study was to elucidate the prevalence of DU and BOO in each age group and elucidate the clinical and urodynamic differences between the DU, BOO and non-DU/BOO groups.

Read the detailed description

Between April 1996 and September 2018, all women with symptoms of voiding dysfunction who visited the urogynecological department of a medical center for urodynamic evaluation were reviewed. Those women who have no complete data of maximum flow rate (Qmax), voided volume, post-void residual volume (PVR) and detrusor pressure at a maximum flow rate (PdetQmax) were excluded from this study. Besides, women with cystocele were also excluded. The DU was defined when the PdetQmax was less than 20 cmH2O, the Qmax was less than 15 mL/s, and the bladder voiding efficiency (BVE) was less than 90 %. The BOO was defined when the PdetQmax was not less than 40 cmH2O, and the Qmax was less than 12 mL/s. BVE = voided volume / (voided volume+ PVR) x 100%. Those women without DU or BOO were allocated to the non-DU/BOO group.

STATA software was used for statistical analysis. ANOVA test with Bonferroni correction or chi-square test was used for statistical analysis as appropriate. Linear regression analysis with age adjustment was used to assess the adjusted effect of variables. P < 0.05 was considered as statistical significant.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Urodynamic studyDiagnostic test

    Also called Pad test

    The urodynamic assessment included uroflowmetry, filling cystometry with 35°C distilled water at a rate of 60 mL/sec, a pressure flow study, and a stress urethral pressure profile with patient in sitting position [14]. A 20-minute pad test for each woman was also performed [15, 16]. Multichannel urodynamic equipment (Life-Tech, Houston, TX, USA) with computer analysis and Urovision (Urolab Janus System V, Houston) was used. All terminology conformed to the standards recommended by the ICS [3]. All procedures were performed by an experienced technician, and the data were interpreted by a single observer to avoid interobserver variability.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants with Detrusor underactivity or Bladder outlet obstruction

    The DU was defined when the PdetQmax was less than 20 cmH2O, the Qmax was less than 15 mL/s, and the bladder voiding efficiency (BVE) was less than 90 %. The BOO was defined when the PdetQmax was not less than 40 cmH2O, and the Qmax was less than 12 mL/s. BVE = voided volume / (voided volume+ PVR) x 100%.

    Measured: Between April 1996 and September 2018

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants with Detrusor underactivity or Bladder outlet obstruction (time frame: Between April 1996 and September 2018). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04184752, which also lists 7 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
