Brief Summary

Anticholinergic medication is used to treat overactive bladder (OAB). A known side effect of this medication is cognitive dysfunction. OAB is more prevalent in the elderly population - a group that also has a higher baseline risk of cognitive dysfunction. Our objective is to evaluate the effect of an anticholinergic medication on cognitive function in elderly women.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Hopkins Verbal Learning Test - Revised

    Assesses short term verbal learning and memory. Subscales include immediate recall (0-36) and delayed recall (0-12). Higher values indicate better outcomes.

    Week 4

  • Hopkins Verbal Learning Test - Revised

    Assesses short term verbal learning and memory. See below for the subscale delayed recognition (0-24). Percentages of total responses correct are reported for delayed recognition, higher values indicate better outcomes.

    Week 4

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Mini-Mental State Examination

    Week 4

  • Overactive Bladder Questionnaire

    Week 4

Study Arms (2)

TROSPIUM CHLORIDE

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Those with overactive bladder will be administered either a placebo or Sanctura XR extended release (Trospium chloride) for treatment (60 mg).

Drug: Trospium Chloride

PLACEBO

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Subjects may be administered a placebo rather than the Sanctura XR (Trospium Chloride).

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

Subject will be administered either placebo or 60 mg dosage of Sanctura XR for treatment of overactive bladder. Subject will take Sanctura XR once every morning. Blood will be drawn for plasma extraction at each visit.

Also known as: Sanctura XR
