Objectives: To investigate whether female patients with predominant voiding symptom really have objective voiding phase dysfunction. Methods: Female patients with lower urinary tract symptoms who underwent video-urodynamic study between January 2009 and December 2012 were recruited. All patients completed a 3-day frequency-volume chart. Symptom severity was evaluated using International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (OABSS) and Urogenital Distress Inventory (UDI-6) questionnaires. The patients with IPSS-voiding subscores greater than IPSS-storage subscores and their most bother symptom are one of voiding symptom of IPSS were defined as subjective voiding dysfunction group (SVD group). The demographics, IPSS scores, OABSS scores, frequency-volume charts and urodynamic variables were compared between SVD and non-SVD groups. Results: Of the 842 enrolled patients, 142 (16.9%) were classified into SVD group. Total IPSS and IPSS-voiding subscores of SVD group were significantly higher than those of non-SVD group. Conversely, IPSS-storage subscores, OABSS and UDI-6 scores of SVD group were significantly lower than those of non-SVD group. The prevalence of urodynamic voiding phase dysfunction was 64.7% in SVD group, which was significantly higher than those of non-SVD group (37.8%, p |
