3.3 Urology Urodynamic Study
The Urology Urodynamic Study is a urologic diagnostic test that provides aid in the
diagnosis of urine storage and voiding disfunction. The Urology Urodynamic Study includes a
FreeFlow test and a Pressure Flow test. A Pressure Flow test involves filling the bladder and
determining the Detrusor pressure Pdet = Pves – Pabd (the difference between the pressure
inside the bladder (Pves) and the pressure inside the abdomen (Pabd)).
NOTE:
Before beginning the Urology Urodynamic Study, ensure to review the Gathering
Supplies and Equipment section on page 19.
Operators should be knowledgeable and qualified in applying the appropriate
aseptic technique during the intended use of all devices required for the study.
Starting a Urology Urodynamic Study
Start the Urology Urodynamic study as described in the Starting a Study section on page
30.
The study requires the use of the Urocap NXT, Roam NXT, NXT Go Pump Hub, and
Bluetooth Dongle NXT. Ensure all modules are connected in the Synergy Software. Ensure
that the Urocap NXT and Roam NXT are fully charged. The Synergy Software will recognize
the PIM NXT and the Roam NXT as one device under the title Roam NXT.
Performing a Urology Urodynamic Study
3.3.2.1 Preview and Flow Phase
Once the Urology Urodynamic study starts, the Preview phase for the FreeFlow
test will begin. For instructions on performing a FreeFlow test, refer to the
Performing a FreeFlow Study section on page 32.
When the FreeFlow test is complete, navigation of the Post Voided Residual
window is completed, Synergy will automatically transfer to the Pressure test
Preview 2 window. Press the Zero Volume button to prepare the Urocap NXT
for the Voiding phase.
3.3.2.2 Preview 2 Phase
Preview 2 begins the Pressure test, the second part of the Urology Urodynamic Study.
Complete patient and consumables setup during this phase. Refer to the Setting Up
Consumables and Preparing the Patient section on page 24. Once patient and pump setup
are complete proceed to the Filling Phase.
