Summary

Urodynamic testing is used to help diagnose causes of urinary incontinence and voiding dysfunction. The purpose of the urodynamic test is to gain insight into the patient's urinary symptoms and assist in making a diagnosis. Catheter insertion and manipulation during the test can be uncomfortable for the patient. Lidocaine gel has not been used routinely during urodynamic testing. However, it is used routinely during outpatient cystoscopy and with any urethral catheterization. The investigators proposed that lidocaine numbing gel could be used without compromising test findings.

The study included 110 adult women. The purpose was:

1. Determine whether the use of topical lidocaine during urodynamic testing decreases patient discomfort during the procedure.
2. Evaluate whether the use of topical lidocaine affects the urodynamic results.
