Validation of an ultrasound scanner for determining urinary volumes in surgical patients and volunteers

Objective. As bladder distension related to anaesthesia puts patients at risk for permanent dysfunction, perioperative determination of bladder volume is of great importance. The aim of this study is to validate an ultrasonic imaging device for determing bladder urine volume. Method. To evaluate a b...

description Objective. As bladder distension related to anaesthesia puts patients at risk for permanent dysfunction, perioperative determination of bladder volume is of great importance. The aim of this study is to validate an ultrasonic imaging device for determing bladder urine volume. Method. To evaluate a broad volume range, ultrasonically scanned volumes were compared to true urinary volumes both in surgical patients and in volunteers. After institutional approval and informed consent 60 healthy volunteers were asked not to void for as long as possible. After ultrasound measurements (BladderScan BVI 2500, Diagnostic Ultrasound, Redmond WA, U.S.A.) they voided and true urinary volumes were measured. Fifty surgical patients scheduled for procedures requiring urinary catheterization were studied. Pre- and post-induction of anaesthesia ultrasound measurements were recorded, followed by urinary catheterization and measurement of true urinary volume. Urine volumes were compared using Student t-tests and Wilcoxon Rank Tests (p

Ultrasonic scanning underestimated the true urine volume by about 7% over the whole volume range (17 ml to 970 ml). Underestimation was larger in females than in males (p&lt;0.02). R super(2) values for correlation of measured and scanned urinary volumes ranged between 0.92 and 0.95.
