Introduction: Overactive bladder (OAB) is a prevalent condition which signiicantly impairs quality of life. Objective: The objective of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence and comorbidities associated to OAB in women who attend the climacteric clinic. Material and methods: Observational study in women who attended the climacteric clinic in september 2014. Patients were asked to answer the «Bladder Control Self-assessment Questionnarie» (B-SAQ) and we collected clinical and biochemical data from each participant. Patients were classiied as those with OAB and a control group according to their individual score on the PPBC. Results: 42 patients were included in the study. Among these, 15 were diagnosed with OAB (score > 6 on PPBC), while 27 were considered control subjects (score < 6 on PPBC). The average PPBC score for patients with OAB was 9.93 ± 3.20 compared to 1.77 ± 2.25 for control subjects. Average age was similar between both groups (55 [OAB] vs 54 [control]). Compared to the control group patients with OAB had a signiicantly higher BMI (31.7 ± 5.86 vs 27.5 ± 3.01; p = 0.021), as well as thyroid dysfunction (46% vs 14.8%; p = 0.050). Conclusions: Prevalence of OAB in women who attend the climacteric clinic was high at 37.5%, and is associated with speciic comorbidities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |

Introducción: La vejiga hiperactiva (VHA) es una entidad clínica frecuente que disminuye importantemente la calidad de vida. Objetivo: El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la prevalencia y las comorbilidades asociadas a la VHA en mujeres que acuden a la clínica de climaterio. Material y métodos: Estudio prospectivo en mujeres que acudieron a consulta de climaterio en septiembre de 2014. Las pacientes respondieron el cuestionario de autoevaluación de control vesical (CACV) y se recabaron datos clínicos y bioquímicos de cada participante. Las pacientes fueron clasiicadas entre aquéllas con y sin VHA de acuerdo al puntaje del CACV (> 6 versus < 6). Resultados: Cuarenta y dos pacientes fueron incluidas en el estudio. De éstas, 15 pacientes fueron diagnosticadas con VHA y 27 fueron controles sin VHA. El puntaje promedio en el CACV en pacientes con diagnóstico de VHA fue de 9.93 ± 3.20 versus 1.77 ± 2.25 en pacientes control. La edad promedio entre ambos grupos fue similar (55 versus 54). En comparación con el grupo control, las pacientes con VHA tuvieron signiicativamente mayor IMC (p = 0.021), así como disfunción tiroidea (p = 0.050). Conclusiones: En mujeres que acuden a la clínica de climaterio, la prevalencia de VHA es de 37.5%, y se asocia con comorbilidades especíicas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
