CLINICAL APPLICATION NOTES
CLINICAL APPLICATIONS OF UROFLOWMETRY
The UROFLOW is a screening test only. It demonstrates the result of the micturition reflex and the information obtained will indicate the presence of dysfunction. An abnormal UROFLOW indicates a voiding disfunction and should be followed by for further testing.
The ICS recommendations for standardization in the comparison and interpretation of Uroflow test results state that the following data should always be documented as part of a flow study:
>> Patient's name and the date of the test
>> Maximum Flow Rate
>> Volume Voided
>> Time: Voiding Time (always); Flow Time (if intermittent)
>> Average Flow Rate > Total Voided Volume divided by Total Voiding Time (cc / sec)
>> Patient's opinion of normality of voiding
>> Residual urine, if measured
