CNN-based diagnosis model of children’s bladder compliance using a single intravesical pressure signal

Abstract

Bladder compliance assessment is crucial for diagnosing bladder functional disorders, with urodynamic study (UDS) being the principal evaluation method. However, the application of UDS is intricate and time-consuming in children. So it’S necessary to develop an efficient bladder compliance screen approach before UDS. In this study, We constructed a dataset based on UDS and designed a 1D-CNN model to optimize and train the network. Then applied the trained model to a dataset obtained solely through a proposed perfusion experiment. Our model outperformed other algorithms. The results demonstrate the potential of our model to alert abnormal bladder compliance accurately and efficiently.
