Zeroing Pressures in Urodynamics: Revisiting Current Practice and Pressure Interpretation

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Zeroing of pressure transducers is a fundamental step in urodynamic testing, as it affects pressure tracings and numerical values. Atmospheric zeroing before catheter insertion is the recommended approach, but zeroing with catheters in situ is also used.

The Benefits of Adding Non‐Antimuscarinic Pharmaceuticals in Combination With Beta‐3 Agonists for Overactive Bladder Treatment: A Systematic Review

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Antimuscarinics, as the current first‐line pharmacologic therapies for overactive bladder, exhibit low patient adherence and high rates of reported side effects. As a modern alternative pharmaceutical treatment, beta‐3 agonists, which relax the urinary bladder, may be more tolerable for patients, increasing adherence and ...

Incidence of Urinary Retention Following OnabotulinumtoxinA: A Multi‐Centre Audit Challenging the Necessity of Universal CISC Training

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Clinical guidelines, such as NICE NG123, prior to OnabotulinumtoxinA (BoNT‐A) injections for overactive bladder (OAB), patients are counselled regarding clean intermittent self‐catheterisation (CISC) and are willing and able to perform catheterisation if required. Subsequently, universal pre‐procedure education imposes a significant
