W8: Detrusor Underactivity: Detection and Diagnosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 unexplored field. They will present and discuss the known facts concerning the diagnosis of detrusor underactivity. Which invasive or non-invasive tools to assess contractility are currently available? How can we differentiate detrusor underactivity from bladder outlet obstruction? How do we define the patients with detrusor underactivity and what are differences in assessme

The challenges in the diagnosis of detrusor underactivity in clinical practice: A mini-review
OBJECTIVE To review the current definitions, terminology, epidemiology and aetiology of detrusor underactivity (DU), with specific attention to the diagnostic criteria in use. In addition, we address the relation and the overlap between DU and bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). In this mini-review, we hope to help identify DU patients and facilitate structured clinical evaluation and research. ...
متن کاملThe underactive bladder: a new clinical concept?
UNLABELLED Detrusor underactivity (DU) is an increasingly recognised cause of lower urinary tract symptoms in both men and women. There has been a lack of research into all aspects of this dysfunction, and as yet, no effective treatments exist. DU can be diagnosed at present only on the basis of an invasive urodynamic study. An international consensus group met at the International Consultation...

Non-neurogenic voiding dysfunction including dysfunctional voiding and detrusor underactivity caused by a spastic or non-relaxing external urethral sphincter can theoretically be treated by injections of botulinum A toxin into the external urethral sphincter. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was designed to determine the clinical efficacy of onabotulinumtoxinA urethral sp...
متن کاملUnderactive Bladder: Clinical Features, Urodynamic Parameters, and Treatment
PURPOSE Underactive bladder is a complex clinical condition that remains poorly understood due to limited literature. This study aimed to determine its prevalence among patients with voiding dysfunction, presenting symptoms, risk factors, urodynamic findings, and ongoing treatment. METHODS A retrospective chart review of consecutive urodynamic studies performed on voiding dysfunction between ...
متن کاملBotulinun A toxin urethral sphincter injection for neurogenic or nonneurogenic voiding dysfunction
Voiding dysfunction due to detrusor underactivity or urethral sphincter dysfunction is a treatment challenge for urologists. Recently, urologists have used botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) injection into the urethral sphincter to treat voiding dysfunction. This treatment has been found to decrease urethral pressure and postvoid residual volume, and increase voiding efficiency in patients with neuroge...
