Abstract:
Overactive bladder (OAB) is commonly encountered in urologic practice. Treatment algorithms begin with conservative therapy and pharmacotherapy with antimuscarinics. Some patients do not receive adequate relief from these methods or they do not tolerate side effects from pharmacotherapy. A test stimulation for sacral neuromodulation and percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation are office-based techniques that are commonly used as the next step in the algorithm of care in patients with OAB. These techniques are efficacious and approved by the Food and Drug Administration for treatment of overactive bladder and its associated symptoms.
