Urinary symptoms such as difficulty emptying the bladder, urinary leakage, frequent urination or an urgent need to urinate can have different underlying causes. While symptoms and routine examinations can provide important information, urodynamic examinations offer a way to objectively assess how the lower urinary tract functions during bladder filling and emptying. By measuring different aspects of urinary function, urodynamics can provide clinicians with valuable information to support assessment and further management.
What Is a Urodynamic Examination?
Urodynamics refers to a group of examinations used to assess the function of the lower urinary tract. These examinations measure factors such as urinary flow, bladder pressure, urethral pressure and muscle activity, helping clinicians evaluate how the bladder, urethra and associated structures work during different phases of urination.
According to MEDKONSULT medical technology (MMT), its Uromic systems are designed for complete urodynamic examinations in urology, urogynaecology and continence examination rooms. The systems support standard lower urinary tract measurement methods stated by the International Continence Society (ICS), providing a flexible platform for different examination requirements.
What Makes a Urodynamic System Practical for Clinical Use?
Beyond measurement capabilities, the design of a urodynamic system can have an important role in the examination workflow. Equipment needs to accommodate different procedures while remaining accessible and comfortable to operate. MMT’s Uromic systems are designed around flexibility, with adjustable components and accessories intended for use in demanding hospital environments. Waterproof flow meter components and a profilometric puller with a sterilizable catheter holder are among the features designed to facilitate cleaning and disinfection.
Technology can also help simplify the handling and integration of examination data. MMT’s UDMvision software provides configurable examination methods and reports, while Uromic systems can support wireless connections to hospital networks, including DICOM and HL7. Wireless uroflowmetry is also supported through MMT’s 868/915 MHz technology, which is designed to provide a stable connection between the flow meter and the urodynamic system.
How Can a Modular System Support Different Examination Needs?
As urodynamic examinations can involve different procedures, accessories and measurement requirements, flexibility can be particularly valuable in clinical environments. A modular system allows the configuration to be adapted according to the examinations being performed and the needs of the facility, rather than relying on a fixed setup.
The MMT UROMIC Symphony is designed around this modular approach, offering up to 16 freely configurable measuring channels. Its height-adjustable cart can accommodate standing or seated operation, while adjustable touchscreen monitors, wireless channels and optional accessories provide additional flexibility. The system can support procedures ranging from uroflowmetry, cystometry and Pressure Flow Studies to EMG/Biofeedback, Valsalva Leak Point Pressure, Urethral Pressure Profile, Videourodynamics and anorectal manometry.
