To investigates the effects of combined pharmacotherapy with solifenacin and mirabegron versus solifenacin with vaginal estrogen cream in women with detrusor overactivity.
Women with detrusor overactivity who were refractory to anti-muscarinics were enrolled for prospective study. Patients were divided into two groups: one receive combined pharmacotherapy with solifenacin and mirabegron, and the other received solifenacin and vaginal estrogen cream. Incontinence-related symptoms distress and impact on quality of life were evaluated by short form of Urinary Distress Inventory, (UDI-6), Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7) and Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (OABSS). Objective outcomes include changes from baseline in episodes of daily micturition, urgency, urinary incontinence and nocturia.

RECRUITINGShort form of Urinary Distress Inventory (UDI-6)
UDI-6 is a valid questionnaire, used particularly to investigate symptoms associated with lower urinary tract dysfunction and inquire on irritative, stress, and obstructive or discomfort complaints. UDI-6 consists of six items: frequent urination; leakage related to feeling of urgency; leakage related to activity, coughing, or sneezing; small amounts of leakage (drops); difficulty emptying the bladder; and pain or discomfort in the lower abdominal or genital area. The total score ranges from 0 to 18 , with a higher score indicating more severe of incontinence.
Time frame: Assess before treatment and 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after treatment
Short form of Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7)
The IIQ-7 assess the impact of urinary incontinence on QoL. 7 items assess influence of urinary incontinence on physical activity, travel, social/relationships \& emotional health. Each item is scored between 0 (activities not affected at all) to 3 (activities greatly affected). The total score ranges from 0 to 21, with a higher score indicating more severe of incontinence.
Time frame: Assess before treatment and 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after treatment
Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (OABSS)
The total OABSS is the sum of four symptom scores: daytime frequency (score 0-2), nighttime frequency (score 0-3), urgency (score 0-5), and urgency incontinence (score 0-5). The total score ranges from 0 to 15, with a higher score indicating more severe of OAB symptoms.
Time frame: Assess before treatment and 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after treatment
Episodes of daily micturition
Patients report daily lower urinary tract symptoms episodes
Time frame: Assess before treatment and 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after treatment
