Summary
In an attempt to simplify urodynamic evaluation, the data obtained from cystometry, urethral profile and flowmetry were analysed using the ICS recommendations for standardization and terminology. All studies were compiled from check lists feasible for computation. The aim was to establish standards and “typical” changes for the normal bladder and pathological states to enable automatic readout of computed data. The results did, in fact, show “typical” changes but failed to establish standard measurements suitable for completely computed diagnoses.
