Abstract
AIMS: To assess whether the urodynamic parameters of mean voided volume, peak detrusor overactivity (DO) pressure, bladder compliance, capacity, and volume at first detrusor overactivity during filling cystometry can predict a successful outcome at first stage tined lead placement (FSTLP). METHODS: Ninty-nine consecutive patients with urodynamically proven idiopathic detrusor overactivity (IDO) refractory to medical treatment and opting for Sacral Nerve Stimulation (SNS), were assessed pre and post FSTLP. Data from 3-day frequency-volume charts, and patient reported (subjective) outcomes were used to assess success or failure after FSTLP. Success was defined as improvement in symptoms >50%. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to ascertain whether key parameters at filling cystometrogram were predictors for success prior to FSTLP. RESULTS: Binary logistic regression analysis did not demonstrate any significant relationship between the five parameters at urodynamics and outcome at FSTLP (B < 0.01, P > 0.16) for all parameters. CONCLUSIONS: The results from this prospective analysis on patients with IDO refractive to medical therapy referred for SNS would suggest that aside from proving DO at urodynamics as a pre-requisite for intervention as per NICE and EAU guidelines, no parameter is predictive for a successful outcome at FSTLP.
