Abstract

Interstitial cystitis is a symptom complex characterized by pelvic pain, urinary urgency, urinary frequency, and nocturia. Patients with these symptoms, at the 5 clinical centers participating in the National Interstitial Cystitis Data Base (ICDB) Study, have been evaluated with history and physical exams, questionnaires, and urodynamic studies.
