Urodynamic characteristics of detrusor underactivity in women with voiding dysfunction.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction and hypothesis

Voiding dysfunction has gained interest due to its high prevalence in the elderly. This study characterized bladder dysfunction in women with voiding dysfunction using video urodynamic studies (VUDS) focused on detrusor underactivity (DU).

Methods

We studied 1914 women in which first-line medical treatment failed. Age, comorbidities, and urodynamic parameters were analyzed to determine the association between bladder sensation and contractility.

Results

VUDS were normal in 2.9% (n = 56) of patients and showed DU in 23.1% (n = 443), detrusor hyperactivity and impaired contractility (DHIC) in 12.0% (n = 231), hypersensitive bladder in 17.0% (n = 325), detrusor overactivity (DO) in 2.6% (n = 49) and bladder outlet obstruction in 42.3% (n = 810). The mean age of patients in the DU and DHIC groups was significantly older than in women with normal VUDS and those with hypersensitive bladders (p<0.01). Decreased bladder sensation and larger cystometric bladder capacity were noted in the DU group compared to the DHIC, HSB, and DO groups. Bladder sensation was negatively associated with the bladder contractility. Bladder contractility index and voiding efficiency were lower in the DU and DHIC groups compared to the normal group.

Conclusions

The bladder conditions of women with voiding dysfunction included DU, DHIC, HSB and DO. Bladder contractility index and voiding efficiency were significantly lowest in DU and DHIC groups and lower in HSB and DO groups than normal tracing group. Reduced bladder sensation was noted in DU and negatively associated with detrusor contractility.

Project description:BackgroundDetrusor underactivity is a disease that can cause chronic urinary tract infection, urinary tract infection, urinary retention and kidney failure and has no effective treatment in traditional medicine. The present research evaluated the effects of cell therapy with adipose tissue-derived stem cells on the treatment of detrusor underactivity in men.MethodsNine male patients diagnosed with a clinical and urodynamic diagnosis of detrusor underactivity were evaluated and underwent two transplants via cystourethroscopy, with 2 × 106 cells/transplant, performed by intravesical injection at five points on the bladder body above the vesical trigone.ResultsCell therapy increased the maximum flow from 7.22 ± 1.58 to 13.56 ± 1.17, increased the mean flow from 3.44 ± 0.74 to 5.89 ± 0.45, increased the urinated volume from 183.67 ± 49.28 to 304.78 ± 40.42 and reduced the residual volume in the uroflowmetry exam from 420.00 ± 191.41 to 118.33 ± 85.51; all of these changes were significant (p < 0.05). There were also significant increases (p < 0.05) in maximum flow (from 7.78 ± 0.76 to 11.56 ± 1.67), maximum detrusor pressure (from 20.22 ± 8.29 to 41.56 ± 5.75), urinary volume (from 244 ± 27.6 to 418.89 ± 32.73) and bladder contractility index (from 44.33 ± 4.85 to 100.56 ± 8.89) in the pressure flow study. Scores on the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire decreased from 11.44 ± 1.43 to 3.78 ± 0.78 after cell therapy, which indicates an improvement in quality of life and a return to daily activities. No complications were observed in the 6-month follow-up after cell therapy. Before treatment, all patients performed approximately five intermittent clean catheterizations daily. After cell therapy, 7/9 patients (77.78%) did not need catheterizations, and the number of catheterizations for 2/9 patients (22.28%) was reduced to two catheterizations/day.ConclusionsThe results indicate that stem cell therapy led to improvements in voiding function. Cell therapy with adipose tissue-derived stem cells is safe and should be considered a new therapeutic option for the treatment of detrusor underactivity.

Project description:PurposeThis study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of bladder outlet surgery in patients with detrusor underactivity (DU) and to identify factors associated with successful outcomes.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective review of men diagnosed with DU in urodynamic studies who underwent bladder outlet surgery for lower urinary tract symptoms between May 2018 and April 2023. The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) questionnaire, uroflowmetry (UFM), and multichannel urodynamic studies were administered. Successful treatment outcomes were defined as either an IPSS improvement of at least 50% or the regaining of spontaneous voiding in patients urethral catheterization prior to surgery.ResultsThe study included 93 male patients. Men diagnosed with significant or equivocal bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) experienced significant postoperative improvements in IPSS (from 20.6 to 6.0 and from 17.4 to 6.5, respectively), maximum urine flow rate (from 5.0 mL/sec to 14.4 mL/sec and from 8.8 mL/sec to 12.2 mL/sec, respectively) and voiding efficiency (from 48.8% to 86.0% and from 61.2% to 85.1%, respectively). However, in the group without obstruction, the improvements in IPSS and UFM results were not significant. The presence of detrusor overactivity (odds ratio [OR], 3.152; P=0.025) and preoperative urinary catheterization (OR, 2.756; P=0.040) were associated with favorable treatment outcomes. Conversely, an unobstructed bladder outlet was identified as a negative prognostic factor.ConclusionIn men with DU accompanied by equivocal or significant BOO, surgical intervention to alleviate the obstruction may enhance the IPSS, quality of life, and UFM results. However, those with DU and an unobstructed bladder outlet face a comparatively high risk of treatment failure. Preoperative detrusor overactivity and urinary catheterization are associated with more favorable surgical outcomes. Consequently, active deobstructive surgery should be considered for patients with DU who are experiencing urinary retention.
