The aim of this study was to investigate the test-retest reliability of VLPP in female stress urinary incontinence (SUI). METHODS Our study included 80 women who underwent UDS to evaluate SUI. The UDS was performed by a single operator consecutively within a 30 minutes period. Intra-class Correlation Coefficient (ICC) was used to investigate the test-retest reliability. All definitions of urinary incontinence corresponded to recommendations of the International Continence Society. RESULTS The mean age was 58.9 ± 7.4 years. Among enrolled patients, 34 had only SUI; 46 patients had mixed urinary incontinence (MUI). The 32 patients had underline diseases such as diabetes mellitus (DM), cerebrovascular disease or spinal disease. Overall, test-retest reliability of VLPP on UDS is excellent (ICC 0.94, P < 0.01). When enrolled patients were divided into several groups by incontinence type and presence of underline diseases, test-retest reliability of VLPP is excellent in each group (ICC 0.96, P < 0.01 in a SUI group; ICC 0.93, P < 0.01 in a MUI group; ICC 0.95, P < 0.01 in a group without underline diseases; ICC 0.92, P < 0.01 in a group with underline diseases). CONCLUSIONS The test-retest reliability of urodynamic VLPP in female SUI is excellent regardless of comorbid factors such as MUI, DM, cerebrovascular disease or spinal disease. The VLPP on UDS is a reliable data in female SUI. © 2017FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Volume 197Issue 4SApril 2017Page: e840 Advertisement Copyright & Permissions© 2017MetricsAuthor Information Jun Seok Kim More articles by this author Dong Hoon Yoo More articles by this author Dong Hoon Lim More articles by this author Myung Ki Kim More articles by this author Hee Jong Jeong More articles by this author Eun Mi Yang More articles by this author Seong Woon Park More articles by this author Joon Hwa Noh More articles by this author Expand All Advertisement Advertisement PDF downloadLoading ...
