Urge Incontinence

A

sudden urge bc of an overactive bladder leading to involuntary void. Detrusor muscle is overactive.
will have a strong urge then void, cant make it to toilet, unpredictable leakage and frequent

PE: DELAYED leak upon stress test
tx: bladder retraining, PME, anticholiergics (but do PVR first)
PVR low/normal <50-100
