Abstract

Purpose of Review

To understand how frailty interacts with overactive bladder. To explore how frailty should be considered when devising an individualized treatment plan for OAB patients.

Recent Findings

Frailty can be assessed in the outpatient office without undue burden. The urology community is increasingly aware of the importance of evaluating a patient for frailty and including this assessment in treatment algorithms. Frailty should be considered when treating OAB patients, since frail OAB patients are more susceptible to the potential deleterious consequences of medical therapy, onabotulinumtoxinA therapy, and sacral neuromodulation.

Summary

A patient’s frailty status should be considered during counseling regarding OAB therapy. Additional studies are needed to examine the treatment effects and risks in the frail OAB population.

Curr Bladder Dysfunt Rep. 2017;12:42–7. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11884-017-0406-7The prevalence of overactive bladder increases with age, but the pathophysiology of this relationship is murky. This review article used new functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data to suggest that OAB development is likely related to the complex multifactorial interaction of physiologic decline in the bladder as well as the brain, ultimately pathologically influencing the micturition reflex.CrossRef

Adjuvante Immuntherapie verlängert Leben bei RCC

25.04.2024 Nierenkarzinom Nachrichten

Nun gibt es auch Resultate zum Gesamtüberleben: Eine adjuvante Pembrolizumab-Therapie konnte in einer Phase-3-Studie das Leben von Menschen mit Nierenzellkarzinom deutlich verlängern. Die Sterberate war im Vergleich zu Placebo um 38% geringer.

Patienten, die zur Behandlung ihres Prostatakarzinoms eine Androgendeprivationstherapie erhalten, entwickeln nicht selten eine Anämie. Wer ältere Patienten internistisch mitbetreut, sollte auf diese Nebenwirkung achten.

Stufenschema weist Prostatakarzinom zuverlässig nach

Erst PSA-Test, dann Kallikrein-Score, schließlich MRT und Biopsie – ein vierstufiges Screening-Schema kann die Zahl der unnötigen Prostatabiopsien erheblich reduzieren: Die Hälfte der Männer, die in einer finnischen Studie eine Biopsie benötigten, hatte einen hochgradigen Tumor.

Beim chronischen Harnwegsinfekt bei Frauen wird bisher meist eine Antibiotikaprophylaxe eingesetzt. Angesichts der zunehmenden Antibiotikaresistenz erweist sich das Antiseptikum Methenamin-Hippurat als vielversprechende Alternative, so die Auswertung einer randomisierten kontrollierten Studie.
