Download or read book Non invasive Diagnosis of Bladder Outlet Obstruction BOO in Male Patients with Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms LUTS written by Matthias Oelke and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The thesis summarizes nine published articles and deals with the diagnostic value of morphological changes in the lower urinary tract in adult men with LUTS associated with BOO. Until recently, no morphological change of the lower urinary tract could safely diagnose BOO. Therefore, the value of ultrasound measurement of detrusor wall thickness (DWT) for the detection of BOO was investigated. The results of the studies demonstrate that suprapubic measurement of DWT should be performed at the anterior bladder wall with a bladder filling of ≥250 ml or a bladder capacity of ≥50%. Measurements in healthy men are significantly thicker than in healthy women. Ultrasound measurement DWT values ≥2 mm indicate BOO. The more severely BOO is the thicker DWT becomes. Compared to pressure-flow studies, ultrasound DWT measurement for the evaluation of BOO has a positive predictive value of 94-95%, negative predictive value of 75-86%, sensitivity of 64-83%, specificity of 95-97%, and a likelihood ratio of a positive test result of 17.6-21.3. The prospective evaluation of ultrasound DWT measurements demonstrated that this test is superior to other tests which are frequently used in clinical practice (measurement of the maximum or average urinary flow rate of free uroflowmetry, measurement of post-void residual urine, or transrectal ultrasound measurement of the prostate). Ultrasound DWT measurement has recently been mentioned in the EAU Guidelines for the Assessment and Treatment of Male LUTS and can be used as a screening test for BOO."--Samenvatting auteur.

Download or read book Urodynamics written by Giancarlo Vignoli and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This pocket guide is an easy-to-use, practically oriented resource that provides reliable information and advice on the technical aspects of urodynamic techniques, the interpretation of tracings, quality control, and the most common pitfalls. Individual sections focus on uroflowmetry, multichannel urodynamics, interpretation of pressure/flow tracings, urethral function studies, pelvic floor electromyography, videourodynamics, and urodynamics of the upper urinary tract. Despite recent criticisms, there is general agreement that urodynamic investigation represents a necessary step before any surgical approach to incontinence and obstruction. Nevertheless, recently published guidelines fail to provide specific directions on performance and interpretation of urodynamics, and knowledge of the basic rules and formal urodynamics training are too often lacking. Readers will find that this guide enables them to retrieve key information quickly and to feel more confident in their practice of urodynamics.

Download or read book Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction written by Ran Pang and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-04-22 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) is an umbrella diagnosis that covers the abnormalities of anatomy and function in the bladder, urethra, and, in men, the prostate. People with LUTD face a number of social, mental, and physical health effects due to the symptoms. Despite the increasing evidence in the assessment and management of lower urinary tract symptoms, it remains a challenge to bridge the gap between research evidence and clinical practice. In this book, each and every one of the authors presents a remarkable work for how to apply the evidence to clinical practice from different aspects. I hope this book is a key for every reader to open the door to LUTD.

Download or read book The Underactive Bladder written by Michael B. Chancellor and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-24 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides up-to-date guidance on optimal care of the patient with an underactive bladder. It covers all aspects of management, including clinical evaluation, urodynamic diagnosis, standard care, drug therapy, and emerging treatment options. Nursing issues are extensively discussed, and advice offered on the use of catheters and avoidance of catheter-related complications. Further chapters address epidemiology, pathophysiology, animal modeling, and health care costs. While most practitioners are familiar with overactive bladder, the converse condition of underactive bladder has generally remained far below the radar. As a consequence, there is still a lack of empirically validated treatments and effective treatment strategies. This is a matter of concern, especially as the burden of the condition is expected to rise in line with the aging of global populations. The Underactive Bladder is a major step forward in raising awareness, exploring best practices in patient care, and searching for future therapies. It will be invaluable for urologists, geriatricians, other specialists, researchers, and nurses.

Download or read book Reconstructive Urethral Surgery written by F. Schreiter and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-01-16 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook seeks to determine the current state-of-the-art of reconstructive urethral surgery and to identify new trends in this subspecialty of reconstructive urology. To this end, inter- tionally known experts and opinion leaders in the field were invited to Hamburg, Germany to discuss and demonstrate today’s commonly used surgical techniques. Dialogues that took place during this convention, held in the spring of 2001 at the General Hospital in Hamburg-Harburg, are presented in book chapter format in this volume. The text is rounded out by live recordings of the most important of the surgical procedures. (DVD included with this compendium. ) Our desire was to publish, in close collaboration with Springer, a surgical textbook that p- sents the most important basic and modern techniques in urethral surgery. These techniques are underscored with simple and instructive drawings and »live surgery« video clips. We consciously chose not to make the text an all-inclusive surgical text. Thus the techniques included reflect a deliberate subjective selection on the part of the editors. We focused on the »renaissance« of graft techniques. Much of the material is concentrated on buccal mucosal and preputial grafts Two-stage surgical techniques, particularly for complex cases or patients who have undergone multiple previous operations, are also included. This book is written for all urologists.
