“…In fact, LUTS are not speci¢c, and poor indicators of the underlying cause of the incontinence. Thus, they cannot form a scienti¢c basis for treatment [Byrne et al, 1987;Maes and Wyndaele, 1988].…”

Symptomatic diagnosis of OAB does not correlate with a urodynamic diagnosis of detrusor instability. The diagnosis of overactive bladder based on urinary symptoms underdiagnoses the condition of detrusor instability in a population of women suffering from lower urinary tract symptoms. Therefore, symptomatic diagnosis of OAB alone is not recommended. Our study suggested that urodynamic evaluation is mandatory in the management of the women with symptoms of an overactive bladder.

“…1). 6–28 All studies met de following QUADAS criteria; appropriate patient spectrum, appropriate reference test, avoidance of partial and differential verification, and availability of clinical data. Studies scored poorly in terms of adequate descriptions of selection criteria and index test, blind assessment of the reference test and description of the interval between index and reference test.…”

“…Most contemporary reports claim that urinary symptoms are poor indicators of the underlying cause of incontinence and therefore advocate diagnostic urodynamic evaluation (Faber et al, 1983;Karl and Hannappel, 1983;Byrne etal., 1987;Korda etal., 1987;Maes and Wyndaele, 1988;Sand et al, 1988;Vereecken and Wouters, 1988;Walters and Shields, 1988). The urodynamic findings are considered essential to objective diagnosis.…”

What is the value of the case history in diagnosing urinary incontinence in general practice? A total of 103 women with urinary incontinence presented to their general practitioner (GP) and underwent a standard history-taking, physical examination and urodynamic testing. The urodynamic diagnoses were analysed against symptoms and symptom complexes. Symptoms of stress incontinence in the absence of symptoms of urge incontinence had a sensitivity of 78%, specificity of 84% and predictive value of 87%. Symptoms of urge incontinence in the absence of symptoms of stress incontinence excluded genuine stress incontinence. Information on age, parity, enuresis, nocturia, frequency, urgency, cystocele, prolapse and hysterectomy did not contribute to a correct diagnosis. It was concluded that urodynamics are unnecessary in most women presenting with urinary incontinence in general practice.
