Clinical significance of urethral instability in women

Aim: In some patients with urinary disorders the clinical picture and symptoms are determined by fluctuations of the maximum intraurethral pressure or urethral instability, which dictates the necessity of measuring pressure at its maximum point during a combined urodynamic study during urethral profilometry. The aim of the study was to investigate the clinical significance of maximal intraurethral pressure fluctuations in women.
