You may qualify if:
- ambulatory women over age 60, who are incontinent at least five times weekly for 3 months despite correction of potentially reversible causes.
- urinary incontinence (urge or predominantly urge) by clinical criteria.
- able to accurately complete a voiding diary, to perform a 24-hour pad test under direction.
You may not qualify if:
- significant mental impairment \[mini mental status exam (MMSE) ≤ 20)
- urethral obstruction
- history of bladder cancer
- spinal cord lesions
- multiple sclerosis
- pelvic radiation
- interstitial cystitis
- artificial sphincter implant
- expected to have changes in medications/doses during the trial
- medically unstable
- Patients with factors that could cause transient UI \[e.g., current urinary tract infection (UTI), acute confusion\] will be treated in concert with the subject's primary care provider and considered for enrollment if their UI persists.
- conditions that require endocarditis prophylaxis (such as heart valve problems or bacterial endocarditis)
