A URODYNAMIC STUDY
The Whole Works
Wendy McArthur
Components Of Test
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Homework
Free Flow
Transperineal Scan
Peritron Test
Cystometry
Leak Point Pressure
Pressure Flow
2
Urodynamics
• Examination of the lower urinary tract
• Test the bladder pressures during filling and
emptying
• Helps determine the cause of bladder
symptoms
3
Aim Of Urodynamics
• To reproduce the symptoms under
controlled and measured conditions
• Need technically reliable measurements
• Experience so technique is second nature
–put patient at ease
–reproduce their usual behaviour
4
Homework
•
•
•
•
•
Uro Kit includes
Questionnaire
Bladder Diary
Pad Test
MSU Form
5
Questionnaire
•
•
•
•
Relating to bladder symptoms
Relevant medical history
Obstetric history
Medications
6
Bladder Diary
•
•
•
•
•
•
Recordings over 24hours
Fluid intake
Fluid output
Guage output volumes
Frequency
Nocturia
7
Pad Test
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Pre weighed pad
Drink 1 litre of water
Wait 1 hour
Do set exercises with pad in pants
Remove pad
Measure urine
Weigh pad when returned
8
Laboratory Tests
• Mid stream Urine
• Urine Cytology for pts over 60
9
Free Flow
• Full bladder
• Privacy, normal as possible
• Measures
–voiding time
–flow rate
–time to maximum flow
–volume passed

12
Transperineal Scan
• Measure descent of bladder neck
• Push into bottom
13
Peritron
•
•
•
•
•
Measures strength of pelvic floor muscles
Probe in vagina
Connect to abdominal pressure line
Squeeze and hold - try for 40 seconds
Normal strength = 30-40 cm H2O
14
15
Cystometogram
•
•
•
•
Recording of bladder pressure as filled
Sensory catheter in bladder = Pves
Balloon catheter in rectum = Pabd
Computer calculation of detrussor pressure
Pdet = Pves - Pabd
16
Assessment of Cystometogram
•
•
•
•
•
Note first sensation in bladder
First urge - about 50% capacity
Normal desire - able to hold on
Strong desire - persistant with no leakage
Does the bladder relax and accommodate
the fluid
• Does the detrussor pressure stay even
17
Leak Point Pressure
•
•
•
•
Valsalva movement sitting
Full bladder
Cough standing
Measure leak point pressure
18
Pressure Flow
• Pressure lines recording
• Detrussor pressure
• Abdomonal pressure
