Summary

Women with symptoms of voiding dysfunction may be associated with detrusor underactivity (DU) or bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). The treatment strategies are different between DU and BOO. In general, urodynamic/videourodynamic studies are important for differential diagnosis. However, urodynamic/videourodynamic studies are invasive. The investigators are interested in whether there were specific symptoms or measurements that can be used for initial differential diagnosis between DU and BOO. Thus, the aim of this study was to elucidate the prevalence of DU and BOO in each age group and elucidate the clinical and urodynamic differences between the DU, BOO and non-DU/BOO groups.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Urodynamic study

The urodynamic assessment included uroflowmetry, filling cystometry with 35°C distilled water at a rate of 60 mL/sec, a pressure flow study, and a stress urethral pressure profile with patient in sitting position \[14\]. A 20-minute pad test for each woman was also performed \[15, 16\]. Multichannel urodynamic equipment (Life-Tech, Houston, TX, USA) with computer analysis and Urovision (Urolab Janus System V, Houston) was used. All terminology conformed to the standards recommended by the ICS \[3\]. All procedures were performed by an experienced technician, and the data were interpreted by a single observer to avoid interobserver variability.
