Abstract
AIMS: To present the evidence background for an ICS teaching module for the urodynamic analysis of voiding. METHODS: Literature analysis and expert opinion are combined to collate an outline and explanation of a preferred and good urodynamic practice. RESULT: Patient's preparation, pathophysiology, technique and principles of pressure flow analysis are summarized in this manuscript. CONCLUSIONS: This manuscript serves as scientific background for a slides set, made available on the ICS website to teach the basic and practical elements of pressure flow analysis.
