| UROSCAN-1000 CYSTOMETRY SYSTEM |
| " Uroscan-1000" - A Cystometry System |
In Uroscan-1000, changes in bladder pressure are measured with increasing bladder volume, gradually. Doctor can detect if there be any deficiency during filling/storage phase of detrusor function. Abnormalities of bladder function especially relating to detrusor compliance, detrusor hyper-reflexia, unstable or increased bladder compliance are detected. Simultaneous recording of abdominal pressure and/or urethral spincter-EMG and urethral pressure is possible. We use H2O method, i.e. water is passed in the bladder through catheters by the Uroscan-1000 system. It is advantageous in physiological and other aspects such as a set up of duly sterile infusion equip30ent is used. |

| UROSCAN-1000 + UROFLOWMETRY |
| " Uro-1000 " With uroflowmetry System |
The Uroscan 1000 is provided with uroflowmetry (Real Time). It would give cystometry as well as uroflowmetry reports. Hereafter the details regarding uroflowmetry are furnished . |

| Uroflowmetry System |
| Uroflowmetry is one way of integrating the activity of the bladder and the outlet during the emptying phase of micturation. |
|
| |
In uroflometry following models are offered: |
|
| |
| Detection Parameters |
| The detection parameters revealed in uroflowmetry are as follows: |
- Voided volume
- Voiding time
- Flow time
- Time to maximum flow
- Maximum flow rate
- Average flow rate
|
Also the HESITANCY SWITCH provided with the uroflowmetry system operates to indicate the parameter "HESITANCY". This provides a time gap between the desire of urination and actual starting. |

| Doctor's Detections |
| The doctors on the following lines in general , make the detection |
| |
|
| Flow rate and flow pattern are normal... |
It is very unlikely that there is any significant disorder of emptying phase. |
| Flow rates considerably in excess of... |
Indication of decreased outlet resistance. Such normal level as in stress incontinence. |
| Low flow rates with adequate volumes... |
Increased outlet resistance or decreased bladder contractibility. |
| An intermittent flow pattern... |
Abdominal straining or spincter- dyssynergia. |
| Low acceleration with a broad plateau... |
Anaetomic outlet obstruction and low peak |
