| Abstract: | Cystometry and simultaneous cystometry and urethrometry were conducted in 81 incontinent female patients (46 Grade I, 35 Grade II, according to the Ingelman-Sundberg Scale). The tonometric criteria for stress incontinence were presented and discussed by statistically comparing the pressure parameters for continent and incontinent patients. The results of both examinations indicated that, in almost all cases, the cause of incontinence (bladder, bladder obstruction or combination of both) can be determined with certainty. This method is well suited as a routine procedure to clarify urinary incontinence in women. |
