Overview
Diagnostic Study of Choice
Study of choice
There is no single diagnostic study of choice for the diagnosis of Urinary incontinence, but stress incontinence can be diagnosed based on stress test and urodynamics.[1]
The comparison of various diagnostic studies for [disease name]
Test | Sensitivity | Specificity |
---|---|---|
stress test | 83% [2] | 90%[3] |
one-hour pad test + stress test | 90% [4] | 65% [5] |
stress test is the preferred investigation based on the sensitivity and specificity
Diagnostic results
The following finding on performing stress test is confirmatory for stress incontinence:
- Urine leaks with the onset of the cough and stops when the cough is stopped.[1]
Sequence of Diagnostic Studies
The various investigations must be performed in the following order:
- Urinalysis [6]
- Post-void residual volume assessment [6]
- Voiding diaries [6]
- Pad testing [6]
- Pelvic floor imaging [6]
- Urodynamic studies [6]
Name of Diagnostic Criteria
There are no established criteria for the diagnosis of Urinary incontinence.
