Diagnosis of genuine stress incontinence—a comparison of the fluid bridge (flow) test and a pressure test

摘要

AbstractTwo urodynamic investigations designed to make a diagnosis of genuine stress incontinence were compared in 103 women complaining of stress incontinence and 19 continent women. A fluid bridge (flow) test and a stress urethral pressure profile (using a microtip catheter system) were performed. Both tests gave similar results, confirming the diagnosis in 90 of the incontinent group.
