Controversy and discrepance of overactive bladder
- Urologická klinika FN a LF UP v Olomouci
Overactive bladder (OAB) is chronical and most exhausting dissease of lower urinary tract. Prevalence is more than 16 % of whole community.
In most of cases we don´t be able to detect ethiology of overactive bladder. OAB is defined as a complex of symptoms with their
specific signs. To this time it is not known exact etiology and pathophysiology. We can use standardised diagnostics and treatment
algorithms. The last valid terminology ICS is from 2002.
