Description
Offers an understandable multi-author text of the principles, tests, and disorders in urodynamics. The second edition provides a comprehensive and understandable account of the principles and practice of urodynamics: the investigation and management of abnormal function of the lower urinary tract. It covers basic scientific aspects of the lower urinary tract - anatomy, physiology etc, urodynamic equipment and its use and all conditions for which urodynamic equipment is used as part of the investigation and management process. These include bladder outflow obstruction in the male, stress incontinence, urodynainics in the elderly, urodynamics in children, the painful bladder etc.
