PATIENT PERSPECTIVES
Preliminary theme	Illustrative Quotes from “OAB-Dry” Patients
Urgency with fear of leakage: OAB-Wet?	“I feel like if I don’t go to the bathroom, I will mess up my clothing, and if I’m in a meeting, that would be embarrassing. I have only had one occasion where that happened, when I stood up and thought, ‘Oh, my gosh!’” “You feel that if you don’t get to a bathroom you can lose it. I think that’s what urgency is.”
Urgency causing discomfort	“I think the pressure is the urgency. When I get the pressure I’ve gotta make a dash for the bathroom because it’s very uncomfortable.”
PHYSICIAN EXPERT PERSPECTIVES
Preliminary theme	Illustrative Quotes Reflecting a Wide Variety of Opinions
Urgency with fear of leakage	“Technically if you’ve ever leaked, you would be considered to be OAB-wet, but I think the true OAB-wet patients are the ones with frequent leakage that affects their quality of life most.” “It is all a matter of degree. If you get there in time you’re OAB-dry. If you don’t, you’re wet.” “We had a hell of a time finding true dry patients… It seems like the ones who will leak are the really true OAB-dry or maybe they’re the early OAB-wet.”
Urgency causing discomfort	“I find very few women who are completely OAB-dry. If they say, ‘I’ve never leaked ever in my life,’ they’re usually a pain/hypersensitivity patient with urgency and frequency. With OAB-dry, you can usually get out of the history that they have had a leak at some point.” "A patient who has frequency and urgency but never leaks is different from the one who is fearful of not making it to the bathroom on time- Then I'm thinking of dry OAB."
