The effect of cardiovascular morbidity on clinical responsiveness to anticholinergics in postmenopausal women with urge urinary incontinence
Urology Nov 11, 2020
Selvi I, Baydilli N, Arik AI, et al. - This study was sought to assess if there is a correlation between the severity of cardiovascular morbidity and urge urinary incontinence (UUI), and to assess the clinical responses of postmenopausal female patients in different cardiovascular risk groups to anticholinergics. Between December 2019 and July 2020, researchers enrolled a total of 220 postmenopausal female patients aged 43-70 years old with overactive bladder with UUI. The data displayed that more severe UUI and more impaired QoL is observed in high-risk patients for cardiovascular morbidity. The results considered that individualized treatment may be important in the high-risk group since they may benefit less from anticholinergics and refractory overactive bladder can be more common.
