Abstract

An advanced diagnostic system, which is based on computer analysis of urodynamic data, is presented. Video-pressure-flow urodynamic studies are performed. Data of the simultaneously measured detrusor pressure and urinary flow rate are digitized and analyzed by a sequence of computer programs. The principle of voiding energy profile analysis (VEPA) is used to follow the state of performance of the voiding system throughout micturation. Several computer-generated performance indicators (CPIs) are computed to quantify different aspects of performance. A functional diagnosis is finally produced, based on the relative values of the CPIs. The diagnosis describes the type and degree of bladder outlet obstruction, as well as the functional status of the detrusor muscle on a quantifiable basis.
