Examination of the relationship between post-voiding residual urine volume and patient-reported urinary symptoms in postmenopausal women

Listen to this summary

This study aimed to explore the relationship between post-void residual (PVR) urine volume and patient-reported urinary symptoms in postmenopausal women without urinary incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse. The authors found no significant correlation between PVR volume and urinary symptom burden, as measured by the King's Health Questionnaire, suggesting that PVR may not be clinically relevant in this population. They recommend larger, more standardized studies to further investigate this relationship.
