Abstract | OBJECTIVES: MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study group consisted of 10 female patients who were diagnosed with urge urinary incontinence. Standard King's questionnaire was used for the assessment of the change in the quality of life after treatment. Questionnaires were filled in by all patients before the treatment and during control visits, 3 months after the injection of botulinum toxin A. RESULTS: Statistically significant improvement in the quality of life for the majority of the domains of King's questionnaire (except the evaluation of urinary incontinence impact on the general health condition and social relations) was observed in 7 out of 10 patients subjected to botulinum toxin therapy (p < 0.05).
