Management of Bladder Pain Syndrome (BPS): A Practical Guide

Abstract: Bladder pain syndrome (BPS) is a prevalent and pervasive disease. The physical and psychological sequelae can be very burdensome for the patient, and the condition represents a real challenge for the clinician as well. With no simple pathognomonic test, finding harmony in navigating patient care can be demanding. Diagnosis and management rely upon a multidisciplinary and holistic approach. Treatment options include conservative measures and pharmacotherapies as well as bladder instillation therapies. Ultimatel… Show more

“…Underlying causes of IC/BPS may include neurogenic inflammation, a possible autoimmune involvement, alterations in epithelial sensor/barrier functions, and alterations in the urothelium, which serve as the interface and barrier between bladder lumen and the underlying vasculature, connective, nervous and muscular tissues. Symptoms of IC/BPS include pain and an increase in urgency and frequency of urination [5 ▪ ]. IC/BPS has a significant negative impact on psychological well being, social functioning, and overall quality of life (QoL) of those affected [5 ▪ ], and limited effective treatment options are available.…”

“… 6 At present, although various treatments, such as amitriptyline, pentosan polysulfate sodium, hydroxyzine, cyclosporine A, hydroxyzine hydrochloride, tricyclic antidepressants, anticholinergics and intravesical therapy, have been used to relieve the symptoms, the efficacy of these therapies remains unsatisfactory because the therapies have either short-lived effect or long-term benefits accompanied by side effects leading to patient intolerance. 5 , 7 , 8 Recently, there has been an increase in the use of complementary and alternative therapies, including electro-acupuncture (EA). 9 Though multiple clinical trials have confirmed the efficacy of EA on a variety of pain conditions, 10–13 studies on the use of EA for BPS are not yet widely conducted.…”

“…r u ВВЕДЕНИЕ Первичный синдром болезненного мочевого пузыря (ПСБМП), известный также как синдром болезненного мочевого пузыря/интерстициальный цистит, проявляется дискомфортом или болью в проекции мочевого пузыря, которые усиливаются при его наполнении, а также расстройствами мочеиспускания в отсутствие признаков инфекционного или другого явного поражения мочевых путей [1,2]. Частоту ПСБМП оценивают в широком диапазоне: от 1,8 до 51 случая на 10000 взрослых [3]. Такой разброс данных обусловлен использованием в эпидемиологических исследованиях разных критериев заболевания, а также разнообразием и неспецифичностью его клинических проявлений.…”

“…Такой разброс данных обусловлен использованием в эпидемиологических исследованиях разных критериев заболевания, а также разнообразием и неспецифичностью его клинических проявлений. Подавляющее большинство пациентов с ПСБМП -женщины, частота заболевания у которых в 5, а по некоторым данным в 10 раз превышает таковую у мужчин [3,4]. Ряд исследователей указывают, что показатели распространенности ПСБМП существенно занижены, и заболевание диагностируют только у менее чем 10% пациентов, поэтому его реальная частота значительно больше публикуемых значений [3].…”
