Urodynamics

Urodynamics is a collective name for several tests of the bladder and lower urinary tract function. These tests will analyze the ability of the lower urinary tract to store, hold, and empty urine safely and effectively. The urodynamic tests may also assess whether there are any involuntary contractions in the bladder that cause urine leakage. A healthcare provider will recommend urodynamic tests for a patient with symptoms associated with the lower urinary tract. The various lower urinary tract symptoms include frequent urination, urine leakage, painful urination,  problems emptying the bladder completely, sudden and strong urge to urinate, and recurrent urinary tract infections. 

Most of the urodynamic tests don't require any particular precaution, but some tests may need indications like the restriction of fluid intake or certain medications. Based on the test recommended to the patient, the instructions are given accordingly.

At UMMC, urodynamics is done using the most sophisticated and up-to-date techniques. We have highly trained urologists, specialists, and nurses who make the patients' experience very comfortable. We have the latest generation MMS urodynamics system along with a video facility. We have also performed several complex bladder surgeries.
