• Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the most common benign urological disease in men. 1

• Moderate-to-severe lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) from BPH affect 30% of men over 502 and medical treatment often fails for men with moderate-to-severe symptoms, leading them to seek surgical options. 3

• Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) remains the gold standard for prostates less than 80 mL; simple prostatectomy (SP) remains the standard for larger prostates.

• Aquablation (Aqua) is a novel BPH procedure that may be used for both small and large prostates from 50 to 150 mL. 4

• Although TURP …

  • Chronic pain has been estimated to be present in 11.4 to 24 percent of the population.
  • Of the 369 measured diseases, the World Health Organization’s Global Burden of Disease Study has 3 conditions associated with chronic pain in the top.
  • The economic burden associated with chronic pain is high, with one study suggesting higher annual costs than heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.
  • Studies have shown that race and socioeconomic status are factors associated with higher prevalence of chronic pain.
  • Higher in minority populations, and those of lower socioeconomic status.
  • One study showed that after correcting for income, employment and adverse …

  • Nocturia, defined as waking up during the night to void, is a prevalent condition affecting a considerable proportion of the population.
  • Many studies have demonstrated that nocturia is associated with poor quality of life and numerous adverse health outcomes 1,2,3,4.
  • Patients with nocturia are estimated to have 60% greater hospitalization rates and 19% higher rates of outpatient visits, equating to an annual economic cost of $3,491 per patient 5.
  • Although pre-existing studies have not consistently aligned on the association between nocturia and specific comorbidities, the overall agreement on the negative health outcomes and economic strain caused by untreated nocturia remains …


Urodynamic Characteristics Of Patients With Urge Incontinence Treated With Sacral Neuromodulation And Adjunct Botulinum Toxin Injection, Brent Yelton, Jason Gilleran May 2023

Urodynamic Characteristics Of Patients With Urge Incontinence Treated With Sacral Neuromodulation And Adjunct Botulinum Toxin Injection, Brent Yelton, Jason Gilleran

Posters

Sacral neuromodulation (SN) and intradetrusor botulinum toxin (BTX) are effective treatments for refractory overactive bladder (OAB) and urge incontinence (UI).1 The decision on which treatment to use is based on several factors. Urodynamics (UDS) have not been proven to determine who will respond to SN. Detrusor overactivity (DO) suggests that BTX may be more effective, given its direct role on muscle. The purpose of this study is to determine if presence and severity of DO on UDS is associated with failure of SN and response to BTX.

Radiation cystitis (RC) is a debilitating adverse side effect of pelvic radiation therapy. Despite advancements within the field of radiation oncology, the location of the bladder makes it difficult to avoid during radiation and approximately 5-10% of cancer survivors with a history of pelvic radiation are at risk. While RC is not common, the long-term effects can be crippling and we hope to provide more information on the risk factors to help survivors and inform clinicians.

INTRODUCTION
Research suggests that narcotic pain medications are dramatically overprescribed. We hypothesize that narcotics are unnecessary in the majority of infants for postoperative pain control. In this series, we report our experience combining caudal blocks with a non-narcotic postoperative pathway as a means of completely eliminating postoperative narcotics following infant robotic pyeloplasty.
