Table 2 Conclusions for assessment section
| History and examination are mandatory |
| Frequency volume chart is recommended for 3-7 d |
| The IPSS is recommended but it is not disease specific |
| Urine dipstick assessment is recommended to exclude serious underlying conditions |
| Serum creatinine estimation is still recommended |
| PSA should be performed according to national guidelines |
| Flow rate and post void residual estimation are recommended |
| Prostatic protrusion/angle and bladder weight/thickness are inferior to cystometry |
| Cystometry should be limited to men where a finding will change management |
