What are Urodynamics?
Urodynamics is the study of the function of the urinary tract. Urodynamics is the only way of understanding why people are continent or incontinent (urinary leakage). The Urodynamics procedure will measure the flow of your urine when you are emptying your bladder, how much urine your bladder can hold, pressure around and in your bladder, and nerve/muscle function of your bladder. The Urodynamic study helps to guide the best treatment options for your symptoms. At Alana, the Urodynamic study is usually performed with Transperineal Ultrasound, but can be performed without. The procedure will generally take between 45 to 60 minutes.
