Are Age and Voided Volume Sufficient to Predict Detrusor Underactivity in Women? An External Validation Study

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to externally validate a non-invasive prediction model that uses age and voided volume to predict detrusor underactivity (DU) in women. Their study, involving 450 women, found that the model demonstrated poor discrimination and calibration, indicating it is not reliable for clinical screening of DU. Consequently, the results highlight the necessity for continued invasive testing to accurately diagnose this condition.
