“…Three studies investigated elderly populations (older than 70, 60 and 65 years, respectively). [154][155][156] Six studies were concerned only with the diagnosis of DO [151][152][153][154][155]202 and two studies with USI. 17,156 The criterion standard used in each of the eight studies was standard multichannel urodynamics.…”

“…In addition, one study used videoimaging as part of the multichannel urodynamic procedure. 156 Full contingency tables were provided for all papers, allowing pooling of data. One study used only urodynamically confirmed patients and therefore only sensitivity could be calculated.…”

“…One study included only nursing home residents, meaning that their sample consisted entirely of elderly women. 156 Each of the six papers dealt with the diagnosis of USI. In all cases a positive stress test was defined as leakage occurring coinciding with cough or valsalva.…”

“…201 Two papers used a standing stress test, both with a full bladder (>200 ml). 156,158 One paper performed the stress test in both the supine and standing position with a full bladder. 150 One paper performed a cough stress test with the patient sitting in the erect position; however, the diagnosis was also dependent on the result of single-channel urodynamics.…”

HTA NHS R&D HTA ProgrammeT he research findings from the NHS R&D Health Technology Assessment (HTA) Programme directly influence key decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC) who rely on HTA outputs to help raise standards of care. HTA findings also help to improve the quality of the service in the NHS indirectly in that they form a key component of the 'National Knowledge Service' that is being developed to improve the evidence of clinical practice throughout the NHS.The HTA Programme was set up in 1993. Its role is to ensure that high-quality research information on the costs, effectiveness and broader impact of health technologies is produced in the most efficient way for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined to include all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care, rather than settings of care.The HTA Programme commissions research only on topics where it has identified key gaps in the evidence needed by the NHS. Suggestions for topics are actively sought from people working in the NHS,...
