We investigated the usage pattern of bethanechol in actual practice with the understanding that it would enable the physicians to make an informed decision on the coherent use of bethanechol. Methods: A nation-wide survey was carried out to obtain the responses of the urologists. Out of the 755 urologists approached, 630 survey responses were considered for analysis. Results: Usage of bethanechol was advocated as very common [318 (50.48%)], common [200 (31.75%)], not so common [107 (16.98%)], and rare [5 (0.79%)] in postoperative urinary retention, where it was preferred either exclusively [255 (40.48%)] or along with alpha blockers [247 (39.21%)]. Predilection to use alpha-blocker [247 (39.21%)], alpha-blocker plus naloxone [4 (0.64%)], naloxone [1 (0.16%)], alpha-blocker plus bethanechol plus naloxone [1 (0.16%)] was also observed. It was also preferred individually in pathologies causing urinary retention such as benign prostatic hyperplasia [125 (19.84%)], diabetic neuropathy [82 (13.02%)], neurological diseases [69 (10.95%)], senile bladder [14 (2.22%)], drugs [13 (2.06%)], and infective/inflammatory conditions [6 (0.95%)]. Other [321 (50.95%)] physicians opted to prescribe bethanechol in two or more of the enumerated indications. Bethanechol was prescribed orally as 25 mg thrice daily [441 (70.00%)], 50 mg thrice daily [86 (13.65%)], 25 mg four times daily [59 (9.37%)], and many “strongly agree” and “agree” that its sustained release formulation may offer better treatment compliance [565 (89.68%)], safety [548 (86.99%)], and efficacy [544 (86.35%)]. Conclusion: Bethanechol was the most prescribed drug for the management of postoperative urinary retention and other pathologies suspected to cause underactive bladder.展开更多

Material and Methods: One small hole was drilled at the fifth lumbar vertebral arch (Sham), and a rectangular piece of silicone rubber was then placed in the epidural space (LCS) of Wister rats. Two weeks after surgery, awake cystometry was performed. LCS rats were divided into three groups: Group A (n = 5, MCC < 0.87 mL), Group B (n = 13, MCC 0.87 - 1.81 mL), and Group C (n = 14, MCC > 1.81 mL). Cystometric parameters were investigated in sham and LCS groups. Results: MCC did not significantly correlate to the frequency of non-voiding contractions (NVCs), voided volume (VV), or maximum intravesical pressure during voiding (Pmax), but significantly positively correlated to postvoid residual urine volume (PVR) and residual urine rate (RUR) (Spearman’s correlation coefficients (ρ) = 0.8973 (p < 0.0001) and 0.4915 (p = 0.0068), respectively). Compared with the sham rats, LCS rats in each group revealed significantly smaller VV, larger RUR, and lower Pmax. On the other hand, among LCS rats, VV, RUR, and Pmax were not significantly different. The frequency of NVCs in each LCS group was not significantly different from that in sham-operated rats (Tukey-Kramer’s HSD test). However, a Jonckheere-Terpstra trend test revealed a significant trend toward higher NVCs in the order of sham, Groups C, B, and A (p = 0.036). Conclusions: LCS rats showed the same degree of detrusor underactivity regardless of MCC. NVCs did not significantly increase in LCS rats with decreased MCC, but the trend toward higher NVCs with smaller MCC was significant.展开更多

Methods: Retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 68 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and underactive detrusor muscle contractility treated by our department from July 2021 to July 2022. The above patients all met the diagnosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia, excluding prostate cancer and urethral stricture. Urodynamics showed a decrease in the contractile force of the bladder detrusor muscle, and the surgical equipment used Olympus bipolar plasma resection equipment method. Divide the above patients into two groups: the experimental group of 34 patients who underwent transurethral plasma enucleation of the prostate and the control group of 34 patients who underwent transurethral plasma resection of the prostate. Evaluate the preoperative clinical baseline level and postoperative observation indicators of the two groups of patients, and compare the statistical differences between the two groups. Results: Both groups of patients successfully completed the surgery, and there were no serious complications such as rectal or bladder perforation during the surgery, with less bleeding. The postoperative QOL, IPSS, Qmax, and residual urine volume of patients undergoing transurethral plasma enucleation and resection of the prostate were significantly improved compared to those before surgery (P 0.05). Conclusion: Transurethral enucleation of the prostate has good efficacy and safety in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia combined with weakened detrusor muscle contractility. Compared with traditional electric resection surgery, the efficacy is more significant. In terms of the main complications of the surgery, although there are slightly more patients with temporary urinary incontinence after prostate enucleation, there is no statistically significant difference compared to after electric resection, and th展开更多
