title: ICS teaching module: Artefacts in urodynamic pressure traces (basic module).
abstract: To present the ICS Teaching Module on artefacts in urodynamics pressure traces.
  
  
  
  Slides from three urodynamics centres were assembled. Descriptions and labels were agreed by the authors and the module presented at the ICS Annual Scientific Meeting in Brazil 2014.
  
  
  
  Ten artefacts that should be recognized while using water-filled urodynamic systems are presented and remedial action described.
  
  
  
  This manuscript serves as scientific background for the slide set made available on the ICS website. By following the guidelines in this teaching module, good quality urodynamics can be more readily achieved. Neurourol. Urodynam. 36:35-36, 2017. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
