Anticholinergic medications are used with caution in these patients and beta-3 agonists often have prescribing limitations. As a result, third-line therapy is common. The objective of this study is to compare the outcomes of botulinum toxin (BTX) and sacral neuromodulation (SNM) in patients with UUI following CVA. METHODS: Retrospective analysis was performed to identify patients with UUI following CVA who underwent third-line therapy with SNM or BTX between 01/2016 and 12/2022 at a large academic medical center. Patient demographics and co-morbidities were recorded. The primary outcome was patient symptom response to third-line therapy. Treatment response was defined as 0, 1-50%, 51-75%, and>75% improvement.>50% improvement was defined as a significant response. Secondary endpoints were proportion of patients achieving total dry and duration of therapy for those achieving significant response. RESULTS: 177 patients were identified with UUI following CVA who subsequently underwent third-line therapy (95 BTX, 82 SNM). Patients in the BTX group were older (71.9 years vs 67.4 years, p=0.02) with otherwise similar demographics. Rate of symptom improvement to >50% of baseline was similar between the groups (66% of BTX, 61% of SNM, p=0.46) as was rate of patients experiencing total dryness (24% of BTX, 16% of SNM, p=0.17). Among patients achieving significant improvement there was no difference in continuation of therapy between the BTX and SNM groups. Younger age was identified as a predictor of >50% symptom improvement (OR 0.96, p=0.04) and treatment discontinuation (HR 0.97, p=0.04) in SNM. Most common adverse events were urinary tract infection in BTX (11%) and pain in SNM (4%). CONCLUSIONS: BTX and SNM have similar efficacy for UUI in post-CVA patients with regard to degree of treatment response and continuation of therapy.
