Urodynamics are a means of evaluating the pressure-flow relationship between the bladder and the urethra for the purpose of defining the functional status of the lower urinary tract. (medscape.com)
The ultimate goal of urodynamics is to aid in the correct diagnosis of lower urinary tract dusfunction based upon its pathophysiology. (medscape.com)
The urinary bladder has an apex at the anterior end and the fundus as its posteroinferior triangular portion. (medscape.com)
Bladder3
If you change your position during the examination, it will cause a change in the zero points of the bladder pressure. (potent-medical.com)
Though such surgeries seen from a baseline state after the rst study, it was possible to treat erectile dysfunction with the tension on the bladder plate is incised and the media portrays as great writing or good literature, women and men with consequent secondary upper renal urodynamics tract complications some of which can be seen as a resource list.

Apical1
Specific sites are defined separately on the anterior, posterior, and apical vaginal compartments and are measured with respect to a fixed reference point, the hymen. (medscape.com)
Uterine2
It is divided into the fundus (the most superior and anterior portion), the body, and the lower uterine segment or isthmus, which connects the body of the uterus with the cervix. (medscape.com)
The uterine artery runs above and anterior to the ureter within the cardinal ligament, a structure composed of connective tissue that lies within the mesometrium of the broad ligament. (medscape.com)
Compartments1
2 In this situation, the closing forces in the anterior and posterior compartments are equal and opposing, creating balanced pressures (pressure is the measure of how much force is acting on an area). (obgynkey.com)

Diagnostic3
Therefore, it is important to correctly utilize urodynamics by performing the test to answer a clear diagnostic question. (medscape.com)

Patient positioning is influenced by the type of ultrasound probe used. (medscape.com)
Abdominal1
Multichannel urodynamic studies are more complex than simple urodynamics and can be used to obtain additional information, including a noninvasive uroflow, PVR, filling CMG, abdominal leak-point pressure (ALPP), voiding CMG (pressure-flow study), and electromyography (EMG). (medscape.com)
Surgery1
Most women stay in hospital up to two days following anterior repair surgery. (adhb.govt.nz)

A 7 mm PI-RADS 4 lesion (yellow circle) was detected at the 8-9:00 position of the prostate peripheral zone, which demonstrated restricted diffusion and washout kinetics. (auanews.net)
Examination1
Physical examination position can choose semi-recumbent, seated, or standing position. (potent-medical.com)
Superior1
If necessary, use iodophor to remove local sebum and dry local skin, that is, at the external sphincter, the green electrode is attached to the bone surface (usually the anterior superior iliac crest) inside the thigh and is in contact with the host even. (potent-medical.com)
