Goal achievement provides new insights into interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome symptoms and outcomes.
Neurourol Urodyn. 2009; (1): 13-7
Goal Assessment Scaling (GAS), wherein patients specify goals then evaluate treatments with regard to goal achievement, has proven utility in assessing treatment of complex conditions such as chronic pain, rheumatoid arthritis, and incontinence. We used surveys and focus groups to characterize the goals of patients with interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS) in order to create a pilot GAS.
