Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change in Incontinence Quality of Life (I-QoL) Score
The I-QoL measures the effect of urinary incontinence on quality of life. It is divided into 3 subscales: 1) avoidance and limiting behavior, 2) psychosocial impact, and 3) social embarrassment. The I-QOL is comprised of 22 items, each with the response scale from '1= Extremely' to '5= Not at all'. A mean score for each subscale is calculated (averaging the scores for the items in each subscale) as well as a total score for all 22 items (sum of all subscale scores). The scores are then transformed to a 'Scale score' ranging from 0-100 points for ease of interpretation: Scale score = (sum of the items - lowest possible score)/possible raw score range X 100. Higher scores indicate less impact of incontinence on quality of life.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change in Incontinence Impact Questionnaire Short Form (IIQ-7)
The IIQ-7 measures the effect of urinary incontinence on quality of life. It is comprised of 7 items, each with the response scale from "0=Not at all" to "3=Greatly." The scores can range from 0 to 21; a low score indicates less impact of incontinence on quality of life.
Change in International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Short Form Score (ICIQ-SF)
The ICIQ-SF provides a brief and robust measure to assess the impact of symptoms of incontinence on quality of life and outcome of treatment. The questionnaire has 4 items and the score can range from 0 to 21, with greater values indicating increased severity of symptoms and lower quality of life.
Change in Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI-6)
The UDI-6 measures the effect of urinary incontinence on quality of life. It consists of 6 items, each with the response scale from "0=Not at all" to "3=Greatly." The scores can range from 0 to 18; a low score indicates less impact of incontinence on quality of life.
Number of Participants With Decrease in Blaivas-Groutz Anti-Incontinence Score at 1 Month and 3 Months
The Blaivas-Groutz Anti-incontinence scale was used as a measure of urinary incontinence. This scale combines information on the number of incontinent episodes in a 24-hour period, 24-hour pad weights, and a qualitative rating by the patient into a single score ranging from 0 to 6. this score is then used to categorize incontinence as none (0), mild (1-2), moderate (3-4), or severe (5-6).
Number of Participants With a Decrease in Urinary Urgency at 1 Month and 3 Months
Urinary urgency was measured by the Indevus Urgency Severity Scale (IUSS). The IUSS asks patients to assess the severity of 'urgency' at each void. The scale employs the following wording: "Degree of urgency is meant to describe your urge to urinate. Sometimes you may feel a very strong urge to urinate and at other times, you may feel a milder urge prior to the onset of a toilet void. Rate this feeling by circling 0, 1, 2, or 3, defined as: 0: NONE - no urgency, 1: MILD - awareness of urgency, but it is easily tolerated and you can continue with your usual activity or tasks, 2: MODERATE - enough urgency discomfort that it interferes with or shortens your usual activity or tasks, 3: SEVERE - extreme urgency discomfort that abruptly stops all activity or tasks."

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether women with overactive bladder (OAB) who receive direct instillation via a catheter of a Botulinum-A Toxin (Botox) with Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) solution experience significantly better improvement of their OAB symptoms when compared to a similar group of women with OAB who receive instillation of DMSO only.
Detailed Description
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of catheter-based instillation of a solution of Botox/DMSO as a novel method for treating women with overactive bladder (OAB) and secondary urinary incontinence who have failed oral pharmacologic therapy. This study will test the broad hypothesis that administration of Botox/DMSO instillations into the bladder with a urethral catheter can significantly improve symptoms and quality of life in patients with OAB when compared to DMSO installations alone. Explicitly, we hypothesize that scores on the validated Incontinence Quality of Life (I-QOL) questionnaire of women with OAB who receive Botox/DMSO instillation will be much improved at three-month follow-up compared to similar women receiving DMSO instillation alone. Our long-term goal is to offer women with detrusor hyperreflexia or OAB a less invasive alternative to surgery and an alternative to anticholinergic by mouth medications. In support of this effort, we are proposing a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled clinical trial to be conducted in the Department of Urology at Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, Florida. Note: The study was terminated early in July of 2011 due to an extended medical absence of the Principal Investigator.
