Continuous telemetric monitoring of bladder function.
Preliminary investigations with telemetric urodynamic equipment permit us to describe the following indications for this technique: (1) repeated pressure/flow studies, both in obstruction and in experimental work; (2) when urge incontinence is expected on the grounds of the patient's history but standard cystometry reveals a stable bladder; (3) enuresis nocturna and psychogenic voiding dysfunctions; (4) in the therapy of incontinence. Some examples are presented.
