Table 3 Urodynamic criteria to define bladder outlet obstruction and detrusor underactivity in women
Bladder outlet obstruction
Cutoff criteria[21]pdetQmax≥ 25 cm H2O + Qmax ≤ 12 mL/s
Video-urodynamic criteria[23]Radiographic evidence of obstruction between the bladder neck and distal urethra in the presence of a sustained detrusor contraction of any magnitude, usually associated with reduced or delayed urinary flow rate
Nomogram[24]See Figure 3
Detrusor underactivity
Projected isovolumetric pressure 1[30]pdetQmax + Qmax < 30 cm H2O
Cutoff criteria[32]pdetQmax < 10 cm H2O + Qmax < 12 mL/s “and significant rise in abdominal pressure”
