Urologic chronic pelvic pain syndrome (UCPPS) is ongoing bladder pain in either sex, chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) in men and interstitial cystitis[1][2][3] or painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS) in women.[4][5]

It was coined as an umbrella term for use in research into urologic pain syndromes in men and women.

Treatment[edit]

Multimodal therapy is the most successful treatment option in chronic pelvic pain,[6] and includes physical therapy,[7] myofascial trigger point release,[7] relaxation techniques,[7] α-blockers,[8] and phytotherapy.[9][10] The UPOINT diagnostic approach suggests that antibiotics are not recommended unless there is clear evidence of infection.[11]

Research[edit]

In 2007, the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), part of the United States National Institutes of Health (NIH), began using UCPPS as a term to refer to chronic pelvic pain syndromes (interstitial cystitis|interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) in women and chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) in men).[12]

MAPP Research Network[edit]

The NIDDK established the Multidisciplinary Approach to the Study of Chronic Pelvic Pain (MAPP) Research Network in 2008.[13]

MAPP Network scientists use a whole–body, systemic approach to the study of UCPPS, as well as investigating potential relationships between UCPPS and other chronic conditions that are sometimes seen in IC/PBS and CP/CPPS patients, such as irritable bowel syndrome, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue syndrome.[13]
