Summary
Overactive bladder (OAB) treatments involve many decisions based on patient preferences. Shared decision making (SDM) is key for patient-centered care, with emerging tools to support this process.
Area of Science:
- Urology
- Patient-centered care
Background:
- Overactive bladder (OAB) presents numerous treatment decisions for patients.
- Treatment choices are highly preference-sensitive, making shared decision making (SDM) crucial.
Purpose of the Study:
- To provide urologists with methods for eliciting patient preferences.
- To facilitate SDM for improved patient-centered OAB care.
Main Methods:
- Narrative review of OAB treatment outcomes.
- Exploration of prediction tools, patient preferences, and decision aids.
- Proposal of a paradigm for applying Everyday SDM in OAB care.
Main Results:
- OAB therapies show equipoise in outcomes, highlighting the need for SDM.
- Tools for personalized outcome prediction and preference elicitation are developing.
- Few decision aids currently exist to support OAB preference elicitation and SDM.
Conclusions:
- OAB is a preference-sensitive condition, necessitating SDM.
- Everyday SDM offers a personalized and efficient approach to OAB care.
- Implementing SDM promotes patient-centered care for overactive bladder.

The urinary bladder is a hollow, muscular sac that temporarily stores urine before it is expelled from the body. It can hold approximately 600 mL of urine prior to micturition. The bladder is retroperitoneal and located behind the pubic symphysis in the pelvic floor.
In males, the bladder is situated in front of the rectum, while in females, it is positioned anterior to the vagina and uterus. The bladder floor contains an inverted triangular area called the trigone, defined by the two ureteric...

Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

AssessmentSubjective Data: Obtain a detailed health history, including any recent or chronic urinary tract infections, periods of immobilization, previous episodes of renal calculi, and medical conditions such as gout, benign prostatic hyperplasia, or hyperparathyroidism. Review the medication history for drugs that may influence stone formation, including allopurinol, analgesics, loop diuretics, or thiazide diuretics. Document the use of long-term indwelling catheters and any past surgical...

The diagnosis of renal calculi involves several imaging techniques, including non-contrast CT scans and ultrasound. These methods help visualize kidney stones, assess their size and location, and detect possible obstructions. Additionally, Measuring urine pH is useful for diagnosing specific stone types, such as struvite (alkaline pH) and uric acid stones (acidic pH). Cystine stones are primarily linked to cystinuria, a genetic condition. A urinalysis helps detect blood in the urine (hematuria)...

In managing urinary tract infections (UTIs) in nursing, a comprehensive assessment is essential. Begin by gathering subjective data, such as the patient’s complaints of dysuria (painful urination), urinary frequency, urgency, suprapubic pain, and any lower abdominal discomfort. This information can be complemented by questions regarding previous UTIs, sexual activity, and personal hygiene practices, which can provide insight into risk factors. Objective assessment should focus on signs...
