Purpose
A recent report has demonstrated improvements in QoL parameters in patients receiving TYSABRI® (Rudick et al, 2007). This observation, coupled with anecdotal reports and our own experience, lead us to hypothesize that TYSABRI® will have a demonstrable beneficial effect on improving patient's bladder function as defined by changes in baseline to month 6 scores on the UDI-6 and also on patient reported incontinence episodes and micturitions per day.
