title: [Female urinary incontinence: clinical-urodynamic correlation].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To determine the diagnostic utility of the urinary symptoms and physical examination in the urodynamic diagnosis of the type of female urinary incontinence.
  
  
  METHODS
  A descriptive longitudinal study was conducted in 100 women undergoing urodynamic evaluation. The patients were asked about the urinary symptoms and were evaluated by physical examination and cystomanometry.
  
  
  RESULTS
  A statistically significant correlation was found for age and clinical type of urinary incontinence. A strong trend was observed for clinical type of urinary incontinence and cystocele grade, and the urodynamic type of incontinence. A low sensitivity was found for the clinical type in relation to the urodynamic type of incontinence.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Urinary incontinence clinical data do not permit determination of the urodynamic type of incontinence.
