bladder function assessment

Bladder function assessment evaluates how well your bladder stores and releases urine. It often involves questions about symptoms, a physical exam, and tests such as urinalysis, ultrasound, or urodynamic studies. Urodynamic testing measures pressure, flow, and bladder capacity to identify issues like overactivity or obstruction. These assessments help healthcare providers diagnose problems like incontinence or difficulty urinating, guiding appropriate treatment. The goal is to understand how your bladder works to ensure proper function and address any concerns effectively.
