Subjects with bothersome symptoms of overactive bladder (OAB) including urinary urge incontinence (UI) and/or urgency-frequency (UF), who had not exhausted all medication options (failed at least 1 anticholinergic medication and had at least 1 medication not tried) were included. METHODS Subjects with successful test stimulation using therapeutic success criteria received an SNM implant. UI therapeutic success was defined as a ≥50% improvement in average leaks/day and for UF as a ≥50% reduction in voids/day or a return to normal (<8 voids/day). Subjects with both UI and UF needed therapeutic success for just one indication to be implanted. UI subjects' response to test stimulation was measured as percent improvement in leaks from baseline. UF subjects' response to test stimulation was measured on two factors: whether subjects return to normal and whether they have 50% improvement in voids/day from baseline. Logistic regression was used and therapeutic success was regressed separately for UI and UF subjects on test stimulation reponse. Baseline characteristics including age, race, gender, previous medications tried, age at implant, and years since diagnosis were also included in the models. RESULTS Of the 340 subjects that completed test stimulation, 272 were implanted with SNM. For subjects implanted with a full system, 91% were female and mean age was 57 years. At 12 months, 79% of UI subjects and 69% of UF subjects had therapeutic success. UI subjects were more likely to have 12-month therapeutic success if they had greater reduction in number of leaks at test stimulation (OR (Odds Ratio)=1.02, p=0.021), and with 1 or 2 previous OAB medications tried as compared to 3 or more (OR=3.03, p=0.010). UF subjects were more likely to have 12-month success if they returned to normal at test stimulation (OR=3.60, p=0.002;) compared to not returning to normal at test stimulation. No relationship of previous medication use with UF therapeutic success was observed. CONCLUSIONS This multicenter study shows that test stimulation reponse is a successful predictor for therapeutic success at 12 months in both UI and UF subjects. UI subjects are more likely to achieve therapeutic success if they have tried 2 medications or less, but that was not found for UF subjects. © 2014FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 191Issue 4SApril 2014Page: e403 Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 2014MetricsAuthor Information Suzette E.
