Evaluation of the Link Between Bladder Sensation and Changes in Skin Electrical Conductance and Heart Rate.
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Measuring sympathetic skin response or heart rate variability can provide an objective biomarker of bladder sensation and its modulation by drug with potential to treat overactive bladder.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Heart rate variability evoked by filling cystometry and intravesical neurostimulation and sympathetic skin response evoked by intravesical neurostimulation in healthy volunteers and OAB patients []
Secondary Outcome Measures
- To investigate the correlation between the changes in heart rate variability and sympathetic skin response evoked by filling cystometry and intravesical neurostimulation in OAB patients. [duration of study]
- To determine whether there is a difference in the stimulus response relationship for the evoked changes in HRV and SSR between healthy volunteers and OAB patients. [duration of study]
