Study Summary

OnabotulinumtoxinA (Botox®) bladder injections are a highly effective treatment for overactive bladder and urgency urinary incontinence. The procedure is typically performed in the office setting with one of two medications to control comfort. However, the effectiveness of these medications has never been compared. The goal of this study is to determine which medication is better at providing comfort during bladder Botox® injections.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Non-pregnant, adult females 18 years of age or older

  • Diagnosis of idiopathic overactive bladder

  • Planning office-based bladder injection of onabotulinumtoxinA

  • Willing and able to complete all study related items and interviews

  • Grossly neurologically normal on exam

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known neurologic diseases (multiple sclerosis, Parkinson Disease, CVA within 6 months,myasthenia gravis, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, peripheral neuropathy, and completespinal cord injury) believed to affect urinary function

  • Planned injection of >100 units of onabotulinumtoxinA

  • OnabotulinumtoxinA given for another indication within the previous 3 months (ifcumulative dose would total >400 units)

  • Any intradetrusor onabotulinumtoxinA injections in the previous 12 months

  • Serum creatinine level greater than twice the upper limit of normal within the yearprior to enrollment

  • Allergy to lidocaine

  • Allergy to onabotulinumtoxinA

  • Allergy to phenazopyridine

  • Untreated urinary tract infection (UTI)

  • Currently pregnant or lactating.

  • Known urinary retention (post-void residual >200mL) and inability to performintermittent self-catheterization

Study Description

The primary aim of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the analgesic effect of oral phenazopyridine to that of intravesical lidocaine during intradetrusor injections of onabotulinumtoxinA performed for idiopathic overactive bladder. The investigators will achieve this by measuring the mean visual-analog pain scores (VAS) in women who are randomized to receive either oral phenazopyridine or intravesical lidocaine.

Secondary aims include assessment of:

  1. Overall Patient Satisfaction: To compare overall patient satisfaction with the onabotulinumtoxinA injection procedure in women randomized to pre-procedure oral phenazopyridine versus those randomized to intravesical lidocaine instillation.

  2. Ease of Procedure: To compare the physician's perception of ease of onabotulinumtoxinA injection procedure in women randomized to pre-procedure oral phenazopyridine versus those randomized to intravesical lidocaine instillation.

  3. Office Efficiency/Total Appointment Duration: To compare total appointment time or total time spent in an office exam/procedure room in women randomized to pre-procedure oral phenazopyridine versus those randomized to intravesical lidocaine instillation.
