The fundamentals of quality assurance during urodynamics
Measurement of sufficient accuracy for diagnosis to be made reliably is vital for key diagnostic tests from which treatment recommendations are derived. We describe the fundamental requirements for quality assurance in urodynamics, covering the key points for calibration, zeroing, resting pressures,...

| description | Measurement of sufficient accuracy for diagnosis to be made reliably is vital for key diagnostic tests from which treatment recommendations are derived. We describe the fundamental requirements for quality assurance in urodynamics, covering the key points for calibration, zeroing, resting pressures, live signals, transmission tests and annotation. These represent the features which must be demonstrated for all such tests. |
