Abstract
The urodynamic unit must respond to the need for patient investigation from a variety of sources and must ensure that the studies are carried out to a consistently high standard. There is a need for three levels of urodynamic investigation:
-
Basic urodynamics, including urine flow studies, filling cystometry, pressure-flow studies and pad testing.
-
Advanced urodynamics, including urethral pressure profilometry and videourodynamics.
-
Complex urodynamics, including ambulatory urodynamics and neurophysiological testing.
