The objective of this study was to use repeat bladder HOD data from a single clinical site to investigate longitudinal changes in anesthetic bladder capacity (BC) as a proxy for either improvement and/or bladder-centric disease progression. METHODS: IC/BPS patients who underwent therapeutic HOD at our institution between 2009-2022 were identified through chart review. Only patients with 2 or more HOD were included in the analysis. All BCs were measured following HOD (100 mL H20 for 5 minutes). RESULTS: A total of 1066 HOD in 221 unique patients was reported within the study window. Mean BC for all patients at first HOD was 795.5 cc (±320.11) and 813.7 cc (±356.41) at last HOD, with an average ΔBC of 40.93 cc (p=0.573). In 95/221 (43%) patients, BC increased from first to last HOD. In 126/221 patients (57%), BC either stayed the same or decreased from first to final HOD. The difference in ΔBC between these 2 groups was significant (p<0.001). For 17/49 patients initially in the low-BC (defined here as BC ≤ 500 cc) group, BC increased over time such that they were no longer considered low-BC at their last HOD (Figure 1A), whereas 17 patients with a non-low BC (i.e., >500 cc) at first HOD had joined the low-BC subgroup at the time of their final HOD (Figure 1B). CONCLUSIONS: The average change in BC across a large cohort of IC/BPS patients that underwent multiple HOD was minimal, however within this cohort there were two small but distinct subgroups: one for which BC increased over time from the low BC range into the non-low BC range, suggesting there may be some improvement in bladder properties, and a second group for which BC decreased over time and stayed in the low BC (i.e., bladder-centric) range, which may be indicative of disease progression.
