QoL and functional outcomes were assessed using spinal cord independence measure (SCIM) and SF\u20108 health questionnaire. International consultation of incontinence questionnaire (ICIQ) was used to assess incontinence. Comparisons were drawn between patients who underwent surgical reconstruction and those who did not. Student <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>\u2010tests were used for comparisons and a <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2010value &lt;0.05 was considered statistically significant.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Fifty\u2010four patients with SB were included. A total of 43% underwent bladder augmentation (BA) and 30% underwent antegrade continence enema (ACE). Patients with BA scored 49\u2009\u00b1\u200925 on the SCIM survey while those without had higher scores of 68\u2009\u00b1\u200919 with a <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2010value of 0.016.

In our cohort, patients who underwent BA and ACE were shown to have decreased SCIM scores. SCIM scores for BA patients were significantly higher in patients who did not receive a BA independent of ACE status. SF\u20108 and ICIQ scores did not show any statistically significant difference in quality of life survey scores in those who underwent procedures versus those who did not.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/nau.23511","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,2,14]],"date-time":"2018-02-14T08:12:43Z","timestamp":1518595963000},"page":"1757-1763","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["A
