In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of low-intensity shockwave therapy (Li-SWT) for the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) in adult women. The main questions this study aims to answer are whether Li-SWT improves overactive bladder symptoms and quality of life, and whether these improvements are sustained over a 12-month follow-up period, compared with standard medical therapy. Researchers will compare Li-SWT with oral solifenacin succinate, a commonly used antimuscarinic medication for OAB. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either Li-SWT once weekly for 8 weeks or solifenacin 5 mg taken orally once daily for 12 months. All participants will complete symptom questionnaires and three-day voiding diaries and will undergo uroflowmetry, post-void residual measurement, and filling cystometry at specified time points during follow-up
