“…In a study analyzing the validity of a voiding diary, specifically designed to assess the OAB, the measure of urgency episodes had equal or higher interclass correlation coefficients than those for urinary frequency and incontinence episodes. 27 However, patients may be unwilling to fill up the bladder diary, considering it as a nuisance. Considering the burden of keeping a bladder diary, IPSS categorized by voiding and storage subscore might be used as an efficient tool for diagnosis and treatment follow-up in men with LUTS related to BPH and OAB.…”

Initial combined treatment with anticholinergics and a-blockers for men with lower urinary tract symptoms related to BPH and overactive bladder: a prospective, randomized, multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled study We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combination treatment using anticholinergics with a-blocker for initial treatment of both overactive bladder (OAB) and other lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), secondary to BPH. A 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted at four urology clinics in Korea, involving men, aged 50 years or older, with LUTS related to BPH and OAB. A total of 176 patients were randomly assigned to receive doxazosin (4 mg) plus placebo or doxazosin (4 mg) plus tolterodine SR (4 mg), once a day for 12 weeks. Changes from baseline in total International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), bladder diary variables, patient perception of bladder condition (PPBC), uroflowmetry, postvoid residual volume and IPSS subscores (voiding and storage) were analyzed. Of the 176 enrolled patients, 91 had doxazosin gastrointestinal therapeutic system (GITS) and placebo, and 85 had combined medication with doxazosin GITS and tolterodine SR. Compared with the doxazosin plus placebo group, the doxazosin plus tolterodine group showed significant reductions in IPSS storage subscore and improvement in the quality of life item, urgency episodes, as well as in micturition frequency at weeks 4 and 12. However, it failed to improve PPBC at week 4 as well as at week 12. Earlier intervention with anticholinergics plus a-blocker was tolerated well, including the questions about urinary retention (n ¼ 1) and dry mouth (n ¼ 2). Initial combination treatment of anticholinergics plus a-blocker showed positive results for men with LUTS related to BPH and OAB symptoms and did not increase the risk of urinary retention.

“…Whereas test^retest reliability may be enhanced by extending the diary-keeping period, prolonged diary-keeping may be associated with a lower compliance. Groutz et al [2000] found that voided volume compliance decreased to about 76% when the test period was increased to 72 hr, implying that a longer test period impairs patient compliance [Brown et al, 2003]. Thus, one would expect that a shorter diary reduces the patient burden and potentially increases compliance.…”

The recommended durations vary from 1 to 14 days, 7 days seems to be most commonly recommended [Wyman et al, 1988;Robinson et al, 1996;Locher et al, 2001; Homma et al, 2002;Ja¡e et al, 2002].…”
