METHODS A cross-sectional survey was conducted in June 2010 via the Internet among 10,000 men and women aged 18-70 (2000 AA, 2000 Hispanics, 6000 whites) using the LUTS Tool and questions from the 2007-2008 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). OAB cases and those with no/minimal symptoms (NMS) were compared on federal guidelines of indices of physical activity: 2008 guidelines and 2010 Healthy People (HP). Descriptive statistics were used to evaluate differences between those with OAB and NMS. Logistic regressions examined the impact of OAB on physical activity limitations. RESULTS Response rate, 57%; a total of 818 men (17%) and 1,505 women (30%) with OAB and 1,857 men (37%) and 1,615 (32%) women with NMS. Respondents with other LUTS were excluded from this analysis (2,302, 46% men; 1,904, 38% women). Those with OAB were significantly less likely to report moderate and vigorous physical activities in their leisure time and to satisfy recommended physical activity levels compared to those with NMS (Table). Symptoms of OAB (men and women: urgency and urinary frequency; women: urinary urge incontinence) were associated with limitations in physical activity in logistic regressions. Table.

CONCLUSIONS This study benchmarks physical activity levels among people with OAB. Men and women with OAB were significantly less likely to achieve recommended physical activity levels than people with NMS. More research is needed to further evaluate how OAB affects physical activity and health status and to determine causal relationships. © 2012 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 187Issue 4SApril 2012Page: e30 Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 2012 by American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.MetricsAuthor Information Karin Coyne Bethesda, MD More articles by this author Chris Sexton Bethesda, MD More articles by this author Christine Thompson Bethesda, MD More articles by this author J.
