The frequency/volume chart, a patient-recorded voiding diary, offers valuable data for diagnosing and monitoring urinary incontinence and voiding dysfunction. It provides essential metrics like total voided volume and micturition frequency.

Area of Science:

Urology
Gynecology
Urogynecology

Background:

The frequency/volume chart involves patients systematically recording voiding times and volumes over 24-48 hours.
It can include incontinence episodes and provides data on total voided volume, micturition frequency, and voided volume ranges.

Purpose of the Study:

To review the literature on the utility and application of the frequency/volume chart.
To present normal values and values for patients with stress incontinence and detrusor instability.

Main Methods:

Literature review of frequency/volume chart studies.
Analysis of data including total voided volume, micturition frequency, mean and maximum voided volumes.

Main Results:

Presents normal frequency/volume chart values.

Details values for patients experiencing stress incontinence and detrusor instability.

Conclusions:

The frequency/volume chart is a simple, cost-effective tool for collecting essential voiding data, including total voided volume.
It demonstrates acceptable reproducibility and is valuable for treatment initiation and monitoring, particularly for urge syndrome.
