To analyze quality control in urodynamic studies, using a proportion control chart (p-chart) for statistical process control....
This single-center study was conducted at the Urodynamic Center of West China Hospital, Sichuan University. We randomly selected 15 samples from each month in 2020, and 180 urodynamic traces were fina...
All data points of each artefact were within zone A. However, one outlier was found in the p-chart of all artefacts in October, which might have been caused by inexperienced operators....
Statistical process control may play an important role in the process control of urodynamic studies and guide us in identifying the cause of poor quality in process management....
Urodynamic studies (UDSs) are a set of tests that assess the storage and emptying of urine, and they are widely used by gynecologists and urologists in the management of urinary incontinence (UI), des...
The present is an opinion survey applied from August 2020 to January 2021 through a semistructured questionnaire about the clinical practice sent by e-mail to all participants. The responses were comp...
Of the 329 participants, 238 were gynecologists (72.3%) and 91, urologists (27.7%). Most gynecologists (73.5%) and urologists (86.6%) do not request UDSs before the conservative treatment of UI; but U...
Most Brazilian gynecologists and urologists who participated in the present study do not request UDSs before the conservative treatment of UI, according to national and internacional guidelines, and o...
Practice patterns around the use of urodynamic evaluation (UDS) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) surgery are largely undefined. As such, we investigated factors associated with the use of UDS fo...
We used American Board of Urology case log data from 2008 to 2020, to compare patient- and surgeon-sided factors associated with UDS utilization and BPH surgeries. We performed logistic regression mod...
Among urologists performing UDS, the majority (80%) self-identified as general urologists and practiced in a private practice group (69%). Compared with urologists who performed no UDS, urologists who...
There is a significant practice variation in use of UDS for BPH. Although overall BPH surgeries are increasing, urologists are increasingly less likely to perform UDS for BPH. Specifically, urologists...
To evaluate the effects of deep resection of endometriosis in the posterior pelvic region on urodynamic parameters....
A prospective observational study conducted with female patients diagnosed with deep pelvic endometriosis before and after endometriosis resection surgery. Clinical history, image exams, the Female Lo...
Patients aged 30-39 years old, operative duration of 132.5 minutes, and 2.7 days of hospital stay. Uroflowmetry and cystometry showed tendency for an increase after the surgery in the flow duration, t...
A significant response in the patient's perception of urinary function was demonstrated after surgery. It is observed that the surgical procedure did not affect the uroflowmetric and cystometric chara...
To compare urodynamic changes before and after hysterectomy (laparoscopic vs. vaginal approach) for benign gynecological diseases....
A total of 90 women with a mean age of 56.36-years were enrolled in this study between August 2019 and April 2021. They were divided into two equal groups (45 patients each). Group, I had a vaginal hy...
Both vaginal and laparoscopic hysterectomy did not significantly change the maximum flow rate, voiding time, and average flow rate. The increase in residual urine volume in group I was not significant (p ...
According to the urodynamic study, hysterectomy for benign uterine conditions, whether vaginal or laparoscopic did not adversely affect urinary bladder function....
To evaluate the urodynamic changes in patients who have undergone colocystoplasty (CCP), gastrocystoplasty (GCP) and ileocystoplasty (ICP) in a retrospective study. Changes in urinary continence, inci...
Eighty-four patients were included in the study who underwent bladder augmentation between 1987 and 2017. Group I: 35 patients with CCP. Group II: 18 patients with GCP. Group III: 31 patients with ICP...
In Group I, two patients and in Group III, one patient remained incontinent after CCP and ICP. Bladder capacity increased significantly, maximal intra-vesical pressure decreased and compliance improve...
From the urodynamic point of view, ileum is the most adequate option in the long term. Contractions after augmentation might be caused by the remaining peristalsis of the detubularised segment. Furthe...
Detrusor contraction in bladder exstrophy (BE) patients following reconstruction is poorly understood as there are few published studies assessing urodynamic findings in this population. Understanding...
We sought to evaluate early detrusor contraction using urodynamic studies (UDS) in children who had previously undergone complete primary repair of bladder exstrophy (CPRE). We hypothesized that a maj...
A retrospective review of our prospectively collected database was performed for all patients with a diagnosis of classic BE who underwent primary CPRE between 2013 and 2017. From this cohort we ident...
There were 50 children (31 male, 19 female) with CBE who underwent CPRE between 2013 and 2017.There were 26 (13 male, 13 female) who met inclusion criteria. Median age was 3.5 (IQR: 3.2-4.7) years at ...
We present the first study assessing early UDS finding of detrusor contraction in BE patients after CPRE. In our cohort, 61.5% of patients were able to generate a sustained detrusor contraction on UDS...
At short term follow up, the majority of children in our cohort were able to produce sustained detrusor contractions sufficient to generate a void per urethra with a modest post void residual volume. ...
To address the pattern of urodynamic findings in diabetic patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), comparing short-standing and long-standing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)....
A prospective study was conducted on 50 patients presenting with LUTS and a concurrent diagnosis of T2DM, between February 2016 and May 2018. Patients were classified and evaluated according to the du...
A total of 50 patients were included in the study. The mean duration of T2DM was 10 ± 0.7 years. The mean age was 56.3 ± 1.2 years, and the mean HbA1c was 7.5 ± 1.2%. Urodynamic evaluation detected si...
There are different patterns in urodynamic characterizations of T2DM. Patients with short-standing DM present more commonly with storage symptoms and detrusor overactivity on urodynamics. Contrastingl...
Pre-procedure urinalysis may add unnecessary cost and inconvenience for patients undergoing urodynamics. The hypothesis of this study was that urinalysis would perform poorly when predicting complicat...
Case-control study of women aged 18-89 undergoing urodynamics from 01 January2008 to 31 December 2017 at two tertiary medical centers. Data collected included patient demographics, past medical histor...
A total of 601 patients met the criteria; 11 of these experienced an adverse event, of which all were a urinary tract infection. There were no differences in the frequency of adverse events based on a...
The frequency of adverse events after urodynamics is low, and urinalysis in asymptomatic patients does not seem to be useful in predicting morbidity....
The current study aims to compare the effectiveness of pre-urodynamic single-dose levofloxacin and post-urodynamic levofloxacin for three days related to the incidence of urinary tract infections post...
This is a single-blind randomized clinical trial conducted in three outpatient urology centers in Jakarta: Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital, Siloam Asri Hospital, and Persahabatan General Hospital ...
