Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

According to International Urogynecological Association and International Continence Society joint report on the terminology for female pelvic floor dysfunction, overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) is defined as urinary urgency, usually accompanied by frequency and nocturia, with or without urgency urinary incontinence, in the absence of urinary tract infection or other obvious pathology. Bladder training lasting for a minimum of 4 to 6 weeks is indicated as a first-line treatment. The investigators' goal is to compare changes in satisfaction, measured in terms of quality of life, in 2 groups of women with different main accompanying symptoms in OAB (frequency vs. nocturia), before and after bladder training utilizing telemedicine (virtual bladder training), for 4 to 6 weeks.
