Underactive bladder and detrusor underactivity represent different facets of volume hyposensitivity and not impaired contractility
OBJECTIVES: Underactive bladder (UAB) and detrusor underactivity (DU) are receiving increasing clinical and research attention. Although lacking a formalized definition, UAB is described as a symptom complex, while DU is a standardized statement of urodynamic function. Both terms nominally suggest impaired detrusor contractility leading to disordered emptying. We sought to evaluate the relation...
متن کاملW8: Detrusor Underactivity: Detection and Diagnosis
Aims of course/workshop Detrusor underactivity has gained increasing scientific and clinical interest lately, as it became obvious that a substantial number of female or male patients suffer of this bladder condition. However, no consensus on the diagnosis or evaluation approach has been reached. The key speakers of this workshop are intensively involved in new research initiatives within this ...
متن کاملTransient responses to tone bursts.
Investigating theoretical conditions under which linearly-operating tuned structures produce click-like transient responses to onsets and offsets of trapezoidal tone bursts, we come to the following conclusions: (1) each of the four corners of the trapezoidal tone burst is capable of eliciting such a response; (2) the amplitude of the response and its dependence on the frequency of the modulate...
متن کاملTuning the oviduct to the anandamide tone.
Anandamide (N-arachidonoylethanolamide) is a lipid signal molecule that was the first endogenous agonist for cannabinoid receptors to be discovered. Cannabinoid receptor type 1 (CB1) is widely distributed in neurons and nonneuronal cells in brain and peripheral organs including sperm, eggs, and preimplantation embryos. A study by Wang and colleagues in this issue of the JCI demonstrates that a ...
متن کاملDoes uroflowmetry parameter facilitate discrimination between detrusor underactivity and bladder outlet obstruction?
PURPOSE Though urodynamic study (UDS) is the current established standard to distinguish between detrusor underactivity (DU) and bladder outlet obstruction (BOO), concerns of patient discomfort and potential complications of catheterization deters its use. We inspected clinical variables to discriminate between DU and BOO in uroflowmetry, which can be more easily performed in clinical practice....
