Discontinuation of antimuscarinic therapy resulted in high symptom relapse and retreatment rates regardless of treatment duration. The results provide new information on the durability of the efficacy of antimuscarinics, and may improve treatment efficacy by promoting the medication persistence of antimuscarinics in OAB patients.
Among our adult patients with febrile UTI, age, systolic blood pressure, body temperature, and procalcitonin were significantly associated with bacteremia. We therefore suggest that these factors should be considered when deciding upon treatment options for febrile UTI patients at the ED.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
