[Urodynamic and roentgenologic findings before and following complex physical therapy of urinary incontinence in the female].
In 42 patients complaints following therapy have been correlated to the pretherapeutic urodynamic findings and in 58 patients pre- and posttherapeutic urometric and X-ray findings have been compared independent from subjective result in oder to have objective parameters for the effectivity of conservative treatment of urinary incontinence. The best results could be achieved, if in the starting urometry the pressure transmission was bad and the dosing pressure of the urethra in rest adequate to the age. In analogy about identic urethral closing pressure in rest, but significant increase of the functional urethral length and a better pressure transmission in a sitting position could be found. Good results of conservative treatment on urge incontinence symptomatology could be derived from increasing bladder capacity and compliance. Against it a posttherapeutic increase of urinary incontinence signs by training-effects of exercise therapy has to be stated in the comparison of X-rays. Altogether the high rate of 63 per cent curing and 20 per cent improvement could not be detached sufficiently by urometric and radiography findings. This discrepancy has been discussed.
