These are specialised tests performed on newborn infants and young children. It is hard to diagnose any problem of the bladder without this test. In a pediatric urodynamics test, the pediatric urologist performs a series of tests on the bladder, urethra and pelvic floor muscles to determine the health of these essential organs. A urodynamic test is recommended to determine the urine storage, emptying process, proper urine flow and urethral sphincter muscle.
We recommend the urodynamic test if the kid suffers from any urinary tract ailments like:
Urinary tract infections.
Posterior urethral valve.
Urethral strictures.
Bladder exstrophy.
In neurological conditions we suggest a urodynamic test for spinal ailments like spina bifida. This helps in determining the extent of damage to the internal organs like the Kidney and bladder.
We recommend urodynamic testing before any surgery to determine the right line of treatment. There is no special planning and preparation needed for the kid to undergo urodynamic tests like:
Video urodynamic tests- A specialised tube is inserted inside the urinary system
through the abdomen. This tube has a camera on one end and a light on the
other. When the kid urinates this device takes the picture and video. This is done
to monitor the bladder’s filling and emptying capacity in kidsUroflowmetry- This is yet another test employed to measure urine flow from the
bladder. A child urinates in the specially equipped tool which measures the
urine’s amount and flow rates. The doctor sees the changes in the bladder
system.Cystometry- A test where a catheter plays the main role in analysing the
pressure of the bladder. This tells about the bladder’s holding capacity and its
elasticity. It also measures the abnormal muscle contraction which happens while
bladder filling.It is necessary to follow these aftercare tips if a child has had a urodynamic test.
Drinking for more than 8- 16 every 2 hours.Taking antibiotics to lower the risk of infection after the urodynamic test.
