[Echographic measurement of post-micturition urine volume: description of a simplified method for use in gynecology and obstetrics].
A simple method of determining the quantity of urine after micturition in different clinical situations occurring in our specialty is described. There were three groups of patients studied: normal, women five days after delivery, and women who had been operated on for urinary incontinence (on the fifth post-operative day). The reliability of the method was confirmed in the case of women who were receiving bladder training after operation for urinary incontinence. The value for the practitioner of this method, which only depends on a simple ultrasound machine, is emphasized.
