ABSTRACT

Objective:

To systematically review the efficacy and safety of electrostimulation of the posterior tibial nerve and antimuscarinic drugs in the treatment of overactive bladder.

Methods:

The literature search was conducted using the PubMed, The Cochrane Library, EMbase, Medline, CNKI, CQVIP, Wanfang databases.The retrieval period was from the establishment of the database to February 2021. Literature was screened and evaluated independently by two investigators to compare the safety and efficacy of electrostimulation of the posterior tibial nerve and antimuscarinic drugs in the treatment of overactive bladder. Meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.4 software.

Results:

A total of 11 clinical trials, including 10 randomized controlled trials and 1 cross-over study were included, involving 605 patients, including 309 in the experimental group (nerve stimulation group) and 296 in the control group(antimuscarinic drugs group). The results of meta-analysis showed as follow. For patients with non-neurogenetic overactive bladder, there was no statistically significant differences between electrostimulation of the posterior tibial nerve therapy and antimuscarinic drugs in the improvement of 24h urination frequency( MD=-0.06, 95% CI -1.67-1.54, P>0.05), 24h urge incontinence frequency( MD=0.04, 95% CI -0.46-0.54, P>0.05), symptoms scores of OAB-q questionnaire( MD=0.37, 95% CI -0.02-0.76, P>0.05)and quality of life scores( SMD=0.32, 95% CI-0.06-0.69, P>0.05). However, compared with antimuscarinic drugs, posterior tibial nerve stimulation had better efficacy satisfaction rate ( OR=1.97, 95% CI 1.16-3.36, P<0.05) and lower side effect rate ( OR=0.24, 95% CI 0.12-0.48, P<0.0001). And the results have significant statistical differences.

Conclusions:

Electrostimulation of the posterior tibial nerve was almost as effective as antimuscarinic drugs in improving symptoms and quality of life in patients with non-neurogenic OAB. However, compared with antimuscarinic drugs, electrostimulation of the posterior tibial nerve had a higher efficacy satisfaction rate and a lower incidence of side effects. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify above conclusions.
