LUTS and AD

Details and patient eligibility

About

Our hypothesis that the prevalence of AD in uro-gynecologic patients with LUTS who are seeking medical help for their condition is higher than that of the general population (indicated by high scores at the ADNM-20; score above 48). Taking into consideration that affective disorders, anxiety and depression among patients with LUTS present with a prevalence of 17-23% [20] as well as through long personal experience, we hypothesize that the prevalence of AD in this group is 20%.
