Study summary

The etiology of bladder pain syndrome is unknown. Therefore the management is directed to pain relief, as bladder pain is believed to drive both voiding frequency and nocturia. Botulinum toxin A has been shown to decrease noxious input. Several studies showed efficacy of botox for treatment of painful bladder.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Botulinum toxin in patients who are suffering bladder pain syndrome with Hunner lesions during cystoscopy.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change from baseline in pain intensity

    Pain intensity is scored using a 10-point visual analog scale and change from baseline is observed

    Time frame: 1 week followed by 1, 3, and 6 months after BoNTA injection

  2. Change from baseline of intensity of bladder bother symptoms

    O'Leary-Sant score was used to assess symptoms and problems.

    Time frame: within 1 week, at 3 months and 6 months

  3. Change from baseline of quality of life

    Quality of life (QoL) was evaluated using question 8 of the International Prostate Symptoms Score.

    Time frame: within 1 week, at 3 months and 6 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Postvoid residual urine volume

    uroflowmetry with residual urine measurement

    Time frame: within 1 week, at 3months and 6 months after BoNTA injection

  2. Upper urinary tract retention

    Kidney ultrasound investigation

    Time frame: 1 week, 3 months and 6 months after BoNTA injection
