Effect of tamsulosin versus prazosin on clinical and urodynamic parameters in women with voiding difficulty: a randomized clinical trial

Abstract: ObjectiveTo compare the effects of tamsulosin and prazosin on clinical and urodynamic parameters in women with voiding dysfunction.MethodsForty women aged 20–65 years with a clinical diagnosis of voiding dysfunction were blindly randomized to two equal groups for treatment with tamsulosin 0.4 mg or 1–2 mg of prazosin daily. Symptom assessment with the American Urological Association Symptom Score (AUASS) and urodynamic evaluation was performed initially and after three months of treatment. Patient satisfaction… Show more

“…De mate van obstructie, gemeten met de PdetQmax ten opzicht van de Qmax, had geen invloed op de effectiviteit van de α1-adrenerge receptorantagonist [10]. In de vijf RCT's [15][16][17][18][19] werden vergelijkbare verbeteringen beschreven, maar in vier van de vijf van RCT's met een placebogroep verbeterden niet alle uitkomstmaten significant [16][17][18][19]. In de studie van Lepor en Theune verbeterde de AUASS bijvoorbeeld niet significant [18].…”

“…Thus, many clinicians have prescribed similar treatments to women with LUTS based on the assumption that α1-blockers will similarly affect the female bladder neck. Some open-label prospective trials [16-19,21,23,24,27] and RCTs [5,6,20,22,25,26] have examined the effect of α1-blockers on female voiding dysfunction. However, the outcomes of these studies have not been consistent.…”

“…These interventions include conservative treatment (as an alternative modalities to drugs in patients with motivation, or ineffectiveness of drugs or the present of drug side effects in long time users such as pelvic floor muscle training, biofeedback, bladder training, however, the evidences about its effect are poor), behavioral modification, bladder reflex triggering and bladder expression; medical management (anticholinergic and l ‐dopa); clean intermittent (in/out) catheterization (CIC) and the indwelling catheters; electrical stimulation; sacral nerve roots stimulation; dorsal penile and clitoral nerves electrical stimulation; tibial nerve stimulation; neuromodulation; magnetic stimulation; deep brain stimulation (DBS); intravesical application of several neurotoxic agents (including capsaicin, resiniferatoxin, and botulinum toxin [BTX]); sacral roots stimulation by dorsal rhizotomy; antiparkinsonian therapy; surgery (TURP); and augmentation cystoplasty …”
