Review of intravesical therapies for bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis
Bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis (BPS/IC) is a chronic pain condition characterised by urinary frequency, urgency and pain or discomfort which the patient attributes to the bladder. It is a complex condition to manage and treat and requires a multi-disciplinary and multi-modal approach. As well as lifestyle and behavioural modifications, physical therapy and oral medications, intrave...
متن کاملInterstitial cystitis intravesical therapy
Interstitial cystitis (IC) is a progressive bladder disorder that presents with symptoms of bladder urgency, frequency and pain. The aetiology of the disease remains uncertain, but it is postulated that there is an initial infective insult which damages the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) layer of the bladder urothelium. This defect allows an influx of ions, particularly potassium, which initiates an i...
متن کاملIntravesical silver nitrate for refractory hemorrhagic cystitis.
OBJECTIVE Hemorrhagic cystitis is a challenging clinical entity with limited evidence available to guide treatment. The use of intravesical silver nitrate has been reported, though supporting literature is sparse. Here, we sought to assess outcomes of patients treated with intravesical silver nitrate for refractory hemorrhagic cystitis. MATERIAL AND METHODS We identified nine patients with re...
متن کاملIntravesical Liposomal Tacrolimus Protects against Radiation Cystitis Induced by 3-Beam Targeted Bladder Radiation.
PURPOSE We primarily determined whether the small animal radiation research platform could create a rat radiation cystitis model via targeted bladder irradiation (phase I). The response to treating early phase radiation cystitis in rats with transurethral catheter instillation of liposomal tacrolimus was also examined (phase II). MATERIALS AND METHODS In phase I 16 adult female Sprague Dawley...
متن کاملThe Choquet Integral Applied to Ranking Therapies in Radiation Cystitis
We modify the classical fuzzy decision making model by adopting the concept of the Choquet integral as a measure of the therapy utility, when proving different treatments in radiation cystitis. The objective is to rank therapies as a sequence, commencing with the most efficacious remedy.
