Urodynamic investigation in the management of incontinent women

One hundred and sixty-eight women presenting to a Urinary Incontinence Clinic were studied. Only 52% had a urodynamic diagnosis that supported their clinical signs and symptoms. The response rates to various modalities of treatment for each urinary disorder are described. Fifty-one percent achieved a complete response with the treatment selected, 27% had a partial response, and 10% did not respond or deteriorated. Twelve percent of patients were lost to follow-up.
