TL;DR: A consensus-based terminology report for female pelvic floor dysfunction has been produced aimed at being a significant aid to clinical practice and a stimulus for research.

TL;DR: This report restates the ICS principle that symptoms, signs and conditions are separate categories and adds a category of urodynamic observations and conditions associated with lower urinary tract dysfunction and UDS, for use in all patient groups from children to the elderly.
Journal ArticleDOI
How widespread are the symptoms of an overactive bladder and how are they managed? A population-based prevalence study.
TL;DR: The prevalence of chronic and debilitating symptoms of the overactive bladder are determined as the presence of chronic frequency, urgency and urge incontinence (either alone or in any combination), and presumed to be caused by involuntary detrusor contractions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bladder outlet obstruction index, bladder contractility index and bladder voiding efficiency: three simple indices to define bladder voiding function.
TL;DR: Most analytical work has concentrated on defining BOO from pressure-flow studies of voiding, and three well-known nomograms have been used to categorize Qmax (mL/s) 25 p d et Q m ax ( cm H 2 O )

The Assessment of Prostatic Obstruction from Urodynamic Measurements and from Residual Urine
Paul Abrams,D. J. Griffiths +1 more
TL;DR: One hundred and seventeen males over the age of 55 were investigated for possible prostatic obstruction and residue urine is a sign of an abnormality of bladder function rather than the direct result of urethral obstruction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantification of urethral resistance and bladder function during voiding, with special reference to the effects of prostate size reduction on urethral obstruction due to benign prostatic hyperplasia
TL;DR: In pressure/flow studies of adult voiding the behaviour of the urethra can be distinguished from that of the bladder, and quantified separately, as follows.
