Associations of Neurogenic Bladder Symptom Score with King’s Health Questionnaire and Bladder Diary Parameters in Female Patients with Multiple Sclerosis: Cross-Sectional Research

Q: What does this research mean for the field?

The Neurogenic Bladder Symptom Score moderately correlates with bladder diary parameters and the King's Health Questionnaire, supporting its potential use as a substitute for evaluating lower urinary tract symptoms and quality of life in female patients with multiple sclerosis. Novelty: ClaimNovelty.INCREMENTAL. Consensus alignment: ConsensusAlignment.NEUTRAL.

Key Points

To evaluate whether the Neurogenic Bladder Symptom Score can replace bladder diaries and the King's Health Questionnaire for assessing urinary symptoms and quality of life in multiple sclerosis patients.
Cross-sectional study design involving 40 female multiple sclerosis patients
Participants completed the King's Health Questionnaire, Neurogenic Bladder Symptom Score, and a bladder diary for three days
Pearson correlation analysis was used to compare the scores among the different assessment tools.
Moderate correlations were found between the Neurogenic Bladder Symptom Score domains (incontinence, quality of life) and bladder diary metrics (urgency/incontinence), with correlation coefficients r ranging from 0.33 to 0.57.
Multiple King's Health Questionnaire subscales also showed correlations, suggesting overlapping constructs with the bladder symptom assessments.
