Urodynamics

Urodynamics

by PaulAbrams (Author)

Synopsis

This brand new edition describes in detail the tests involved in urodynamic investigation and shows in which clinical areas these tests can help the management of patients. The authors concentrate on common clinical problems and on the presentation of symptom complexes rather than diagnosis, pointing out any limitations and possible artefacts of investigation.
* The new edition takes into account the technological innovations that have taken place over the last 10 years, while retaining the original objectives of the first edition.
* The subject is presented so simply that a clinician with no previous experience will learn how to use the appropriate equipment in the correct situation.
* Urodynamic investigation is described in such detail that it can be accepted in its own right as a fundamental contribution to the management of many patients.
After reading this book, clinicians will appreciate the value and limitations of the subject and will have obtained the necessary practical advice on which equipment to use in which situation.

Media Reviews

From the reviews of the third edition:

This book is dedicated to clinicians interested in urodynamics but without experience in this field ... gynecologists, pediatricians, neurologists and also nurses. ... The aim of Paul Abrams is that the reader will appreciate both the value and the limitations of urodynamic investigations, and will obtain the necessary practical advice on the use of the appropriate equipment in the correct situations. ... this book is a very interesting tool for any clinician who has interest in urodynamic investigations. (Dr. V. Kepenne, Acta Chirurgica Belgica, Issue 1, 2007)
