PATHOPHYSIOLOGY, MECHANISM AND MANAGEMENT OF OVERACTIVE BLADDER SYNDROME-A REVIEW
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 10, Issue 7
Abstract
An overactive bladder (OAB) is a syndrome which causes an impulsive desire to pass the urine. This desire or urge may become difficult to control and eventually may lead to unintentional passage of urine. The marked increase in a number of patients who suffered with OAB feels very awkward and tries to isolate from societal-life. Such increase in a number of patients has drawn an attention of scientists to research on this area. The proper diagnosis and management of OAB can help the patient to get early relief and cure the symptoms. Looking at the rate of prevalence of OAB in patients, it is essential to understand the pathophysiology, available treatment and recent updates to direct the researchers for further investigation. This review article focuses on comprehensive information of normal bladder physiology, neural control, regulation of micturition, pathophysiology, and prevalence of overactive bladder. This article gives an information regarding diagnosis, different approaches for treatments and future perspective of OAB syndrome.
