Brief Summary:
In this study, the investigators aim to validate the telemedicine paradigm as a feasible alternative to traditional in-person clinic visits for the management of overactive bladder (OAB).

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Overactive Bladder Other: SUFU Clinical Care Pathway for Overactive Bladder Other: Telemedicine Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
This is a single-center, prospective randomized controlled trial. The study population will consist of two primary cohorts stratified based on the method of follow-up, either traditional in-person clinic visit or telemedicine appointment. The primary outcome will be satisfaction with OAB treatment. Secondary endpoints include rate of progression to third line therapies, changes in OAB symptom scores, safety, and cost. This non-inferiority trial is designed to provide an alternative option for care delivery that may result in improved patient satisfaction and compliance, and decreased cost, time, and travel burden for patients.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Placebo Comparator: Traditional In-Person Clinic Visit Arm
Patients will receive overactive bladder (OAB) treatment as described in the Society for Urodynamics and Female Pelvic Medicine and Urogenital Reconstruction (SUFU) OAB clinical care pathway. These patients will have all visits in-person
Other: SUFU Clinical Care Pathway for Overactive Bladder
Treatment of OAB via the SUFU clinical care pathway

Experimental: Telemedicine Arm
Patients will receive OAB treatment as described in the SUFU OAB clinical care pathway but all visits will be performed via telemedicine
Other: SUFU Clinical Care Pathway for Overactive Bladder
Treatment of OAB via the SUFU clinical care pathway

Other: Telemedicine
Delivery of care via telemedicine




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Patient Satisfaction [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
    Treatment Satisfaction Visual Analogue Scale (TS-VAS), scale scored from 0 - 100 with 100 indicating highest satisfaction


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. PGII [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
    Patient Global impression of improvement (PGII), minimum of 0, maximum of 6 with 0 indicating the patient is most improved

  2. Incidence of Treatment-emergent adverse events (safety and tolerability) [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
    Adverse events related to treatment requiring emergency room visits, urgent care visits, hospital admissions

  3. Accumulated cost of visit to patient (Cost) [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
    Cost of parking, travel, and other visit-associated expenses to patient

  4. Accumulated time of visit for patient (Time) [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
    Time of travel to visit, time of visit, wait time of visit

  5. Overactive Bladder Symptoms [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
    Overactive Bladder Questionnaire Short-Form (OAB-q SF), scale from 6-36 with 36 indicating the most severe OAB symptoms
