Relationship between visual prostate score (VPSS) and maximum flow rate (Qmax) in men with urinary tract symptoms
OBJECTIVE To evaluate correlation between visual prostate score (VPSS) and maximum flow rate (Qmax) in men with lower urinary tract symptoms. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is a cross sectional study conducted at a university Hospital. Sixty-seven adult male patients>50 years of age were enrolled in the study after signing an informed consent. Qmax and voided volume recorded at uroflowmetry graph ...
متن کاملCorrelation between a new visual prostate symptom score (VPSS) and uroflowmetry parameters in men with lower urinary tract symptoms.
OBJECTIVE A visual prostate symptom score (VPSS) compared with the international prostate symptom score (IPSS) for evaluation of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) can be completed without physician assistance by a significantly larger proportion of men with limited education. We aimed to evaluate the correlation of the VPSS and IPSS with uroflowmetry parameters. METHODS Men with LUTS were r...

PURPOSE To evaluate the correlation between the Visual Prostate Symptom Score (VPSS) and International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS). METHODS We enrolled 240 new male patients who had visited National Police Hospital more than twice during a 6-month period starting from July 2013. At initial visit, the Korean version of the IPSS and VPSS, uroflowmetry, and transrectal ultrasonography were use...
متن کاملEvaluation of the visual prostate symptom score in a male population with great language diversity and limited education: a study from Namibia.
BACKGROUND A visual prostate symptom score (VPSS) using pictograms was developed to assess the force of the urinary stream, urinary frequency, nocturia and quality of life (QoL). OBJECTIVE To compare the VPSS with the international prostate symptom score (IPSS) and maximum (Qmax) and average (Qave) urinary flow rates in men from diverse language groups with limited schooling. METHODS Men wi...
متن کاملIndividualized volume‐corrected maximum flow rate correlates with outcome from bladder outlet surgery in men with lower urinary tract symptoms
OBJECTIVES To develop a per-patient volume correction for maximum flow rate using multiple home uroflowmetry, and to carry out a pilot study to determine the most prognostically useful volume at which to evaluate this measurement and estimate its relationship with outcome from disobstructive bladder outlet surgery. METHODS A total of 30 men carried out home uroflowmetry using a portable devic...
