Experimental: Topical anesthesia alone
2.5% EMLA cream + intraurethral 2% lidocaine gel for 15 min
|
Procedure: Topical lidocaine
Topical anesthetic
Other Name: Intraurethral 2% lidocaine gel Procedure: EMLA cream Topical anesthetic
Other Name: 2.5%/2.5% EMLA (eutectic mixture of local anesthetics) cream |
Active Comparator: Topical anesthesia with periurethral block
2.5% EMLA cream + intraurethral 2% lidocaine gel for 15 min + periurethral block (5 cc 1% lidocaine or 0.25% bupivacaine at 3 and 9 o'clock to depth of 1.5 cm using 25G needle) Block sits for 5 min if lidocaine, 10 min if bupivacaine |
Procedure: Topical lidocaine
Topical anesthetic
Other Name: Intraurethral 2% lidocaine gel Procedure: EMLA cream Topical anesthetic
Other Name: 2.5%/2.5% EMLA (eutectic mixture of local anesthetics) cream Procedure: Periurethral block 5 cc 1% lidocaine or 0.25% bupivacaine at 3 and 9 o'clock (periurethral tissues) to depth of 1.5 cm using 25G needle
Other Name: 1% lidocaine or 0.25% bupivacaine |
- Visual analog scale (VAS) for pain [ Time Frame: Ascertained at end of procedure (withdrawal of cystoscope) ]Visual analog scale for pain uses a scale from 0-10 corresponding to reported pain levels with 0 indicating no pain and 10 indicating most severe pain possible
- Duration of procedure [ Time Frame: Ascertained at end of procedure (within 5 minutes of withdrawal of cystoscope) ]in seconds
- Incomplete bladder emptying [ Time Frame: Ascertained on day-of-procedure (within 1 hour of withdrawal of cystoscope) ]Inability to void after procedure
- Need for re-injection of PAHG [ Time Frame: Assessed at follow-up 2 weeks post-procedure ]Requirement for "top-off" or repeat injection due to persistent symptoms
- International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire for Urinary Incontinence (ICIQ-UI) [ Time Frame: Assessed at baseline and at two-week and twelve-week follow-up visit ]3 items on frequency/quantity of leakage and impact on quality on life (range 0-21 with lower score indicating lower severity of incontinence symptoms and higher score indicating higher severity of incontinence symptoms)
- Patient Global Impression of Improvement scale (PGI-I) [ Time Frame: Assessed at two-week and twelve-week follow-up visit ]1 item on relative change in symptoms following treatment (range 1-7 with lower score indicating greater improvement in incontinence symptoms following intervention and higher score indicating lower improvement in incontinence following intervention)
