Abstract	PURPOSE: Ice Water Test (IWT) is not frequently used today. IWT triggers a non-inhibited involuntary detrusor contraction (NIDC) when the bladder is being filled with cold saline solution. NIDC is unmasked via a segmental reflex loop different from the physiological micturition reflex. Our purpose was to search for usefulness of IWT to expose detrusor overactivity (DO). METHODS: One hundred and seventy-nine IWT performed in patients with overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) and conventional cystometry (CC) non-contributive to diagnosis were retrospectively analyzed. An increase of detrusor pressure of 15cm H2O allowed defining positive IWT (with leakage) or intermediate (without leakage). RESULTS: The population comprised of 131 women (58.2±17.3 years) and 48 men (56.1±15.3 years). Main complaints were mixed or urge incontinence (76/179). Hundred and twenty-four patients had a history of neurological disease. From CC, detrusor behavior was founded uncategorized for 106, normal for 53 patients and underactive for 20. These results did not contribute to diagnose a DO. IWT was positive for 22 patients and intermediate for 20. DO was unmasked by IWT for 42 patients (23.4%) of whom 34 had neurological disease. The positive predictive value was 80.9%, the negative predictive value was 34.3%. CONCLUSION: In patients with OAB syndrome, IWT is contributory to unmask DO when CC is not contributive. Our study underlines the interest to perform IWT when urodynamic diagnosis is unclear.
