Detrusor underactivity prevalence and risk factors according to different definitions in women attending urogynecology clinic.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction and hypothesis

There is still no consensus on definitions of detrusor underactivity; therefore, it is difficult to estimate the prevalence. The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of detrusor underactivity in a cohort of patients with pelvic floor disorders according to different proposed urodynamics definitions. The secondary objectives were to estimate the association between detrusor underactivity and symptoms, anatomy and urodynamic findings and to build predictive models.

Methods

Patients who performed urodynamic evaluation for pelvic floor disorders between 2008 and 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Detrusor underactivity was evaluated according to Schafer's detrusor factor, Abrams' bladder contractility index and Jeong cut-offs
