Brief Summary
It is a single-center, prospective, interventional, single-arm study. Aim is to investigate which variables are significantly correlated with prolonged anticholinergic treatment (\>6 months) in children with overactive bladder (OAB). Investigated variables will include urinary neurotrophins and inflammatory cytokines, sonographic biomarkers, symptom score scale, demographics, and urodynamic findings. Secondary aim is to analyze sensitivity and specificity of urinary biomarkers in diagnosis and management of OAB compared to urodynamics and treatment outcome.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Initial success
Nonresponse is defined as a 0% to 49% decrease, partial response is defined as a 50% to 89% decrease, response is defined as a 90% or greater decrease and full response is defined as a 100% decrease or less than 1 symptom occurrence monthly. Symptoms include urgency, daily incontinence, increased daytime frequency, enuresis, nocturia. Symptom frequency will be assessed using validated diary.

Study Arms (1)
Intervention
OTHERPatients with overactive bladder will receive anticholinergic therapy: oral oxybutynin in daily dose 0.2-0.5 mg/kg divided in two daily doses for 3 to 6 months depending on treatment outcome assessed 3 months after start of intervention.
