ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Increased time after spinal cord injury (SCI) is associated with a migration to bladder managements with higher morbidity such as indwelling catheter (IDC). Still, it is unclear how this affects bladder-related quality of life (QoL). We hypothesized that time from injury (TFI) would be associated with changes in bladder management, symptoms and satisfaction. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Cross-sectional analysis of time-related changes in patient-reported bladder management, symptoms and satisfaction using the Neurogenic Bladder Research Group SCI Registry. Outcomes included Neurogenic Bladder Symptom Score (NBSS) and bladder-related satisfaction (NBSS-satisfaction). Multivariable regression was performed to assess associations between TFI and outcomes, adjusting for participant characteristics, injury specifics, and psychosocial aspects of health-related QoL. Participants with TFI <1 year were excluded and TFI was categorized 1-5 (reference), 6-10, 11-15, 16-20 and >20 years.RESULTS:
Of 1,420 participants mean age at injury was 29.7 years (SD 13.4) and mean TFI was 15.2 years (SD 11.6). Participants grouped by TFI included 298 (21%) 1-5, 340 (24%) 6-10, 198 (14%) 11-15, 149 (10%) 16-20 and 435 (31%) >20 years. As TFI increased, clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) declined (55% 1-5 vs 45% >20 years, p <0.001) and IDC increased (16% 1-5 vs 21% >20 years, p <0.001). On multivariable analysis, increased TFI was associated with fewer bladder symptoms at >20 years from injury (-3.21 [CI -1.29, -5.14, p <0.001]) and better satisfaction (6-10 years -0.20 [CI -0.41, 0.01, p=0.070], 11-15 years -0.36 [CI -0.60, -0.11, p=0.002], 16-20 years -0.59 [CI -0.86, -0.32, p <0.001], >20 years -0.85 [CI -1.07, -0.63, <0.001]).CONCLUSIONS:
After SCI, CIC decreases and IDC increases over time; however, increasing TFI is associated with reduced urinary symptoms and improved bladder-related satisfaction.Palabras clave
