Comparison Between Invasive Pressure Flow Study and Non-invasive Penile Cuff Test

Completed
Conditions
Bladder Outlet Obstruction
Pressure Flow Study
Registration Number
NCT02031653
Lead Sponsor
Samsung Medical Center
Brief Summary

To provide evidence of promising tests to noninvasively diagnose bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia.

1. Penile cuff test provides a means of obtaining a urodynamic diagnosis with a high level of accuracy without the morbidity and expense of invasive Pressure flow study.

2. Penile cuff test may be particularly useful in the counseling of patients prior to benign prostatic hyperplasia operation. Patients diagnosed as obstructed following a penile cuff test can be reassured that surgery has a high chance of resulting in symptomatic benefit
