Pakistan is a developing country with limited provision of urogynecological services, and therefore few urodynamic studies.

“…The percentage of patients with pure SUI symptoms varied between 5.2 and 29.9% in different studies [4,5,6,11,12,13]. In the present study, 19.9% (group 1) of the whole patient population (table 2) had pure SUI symptoms, and the PPV (76.7%) was not high enough for the prediction of pure uSUI in this group.…”

However, the invasive nature of PFS, together with financial and time costs, limits its application and in developing countries has limited accessibility [1,2]. …”

“…7 Some urologists argued that the consideration for performing urodynamics was caused by the high cost of urodynamic study. 8 Moreover, urodynamics should be efficiently performed in selected patients to reduce the risk of emerging complications during and after the procedure. Hence, this study was aimed to identify several potential predictors of DU for a limited clinical setting.…”
