title: [Normal range values of uroflowmetry in comparison to findings in urinary incontinence].
abstract: The range of normal values of uroflowmetry is ascertained in 100 continent women and compared with the data of 40 women suffering from urinary stress incontinence. The mean volume of miction is 252 +/- 80 ml. The mean waiting time has a duration of 5 +/- 24 s. The mean time till a maximal urinary flow lasts 9 +/- 8 s. The maximal flow is measured 22 +/- 9 ml/s within a flow time of 25 +/- 13 s. The mean value of average urinary flow is 12 +/- 6 ml/s. The slope angle till the maximal flow independent of volume of miction is 65 +/- 18 degrees. Waiting time, time till maximal urinary flow and flow time are longer in incontinent women significantly. The volume of miction is greater, the maximal and average urinary flow, the slope angle till the maximal flow are lower significantly.--Uroflowmetry is a noninvasive method free of complications and indicated in cases of urinary incontinence, too. Above it is possible to diagnose obstructions of the lower urinary tract and dyssynergismus of the detrusor. For complete urologic diagnostic a combination with other methods is necessary.
