Uroflowmetry

If you’re facing urinary issues such as weak flow, dribbling, or difficulty starting urination, your doctor may recommend a Uroflowmetry test. This simple, non-invasive test measures how well your bladder and urethra work by analyzing your urine flow. At Urocentre, Gurugram, we offer precise uroflowmetry testing under direct urologist supervision, ensuring accuracy and expert guidance.

What is a Uroflowmetry Test?

Uroflowmetry records the rate and pattern of urine flow, helping identify how effectively the bladder empties. The test measures key parameters like:

• Maximum and average flow rate
• Voiding time and total urine volume
• Flow curve or pattern

These readings help detect conditions such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), urethral stricture, bladder outlet obstruction, and neurogenic bladder. It’s commonly advised for patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS)—including weak stream, hesitancy, straining, or incomplete emptying. In women, it assists in assessing pelvic floor dysfunction or post-surgical outcomes.

How the Test is Done

At Urocentre, the test is conducted in a private, comfortable setting:

1. Preparation: You’ll be asked to drink water until your bladder feels full.
2. Voiding: You urinate naturally into a specialized funnel connected to a computerized flow meter.
3. Recording: The system records your flow rate, volume, and duration in real time.
4. Analysis: A urologist interprets the results immediately, ensuring accurate diagnosis and next steps.

The procedure is quick, painless, and radiation-free, taking about 10–15 minutes.

Preparing for the Test

To ensure accurate results:

• Arrive with a full bladder: Drink 2–4 glasses of water 30–60 minutes before.
• Avoid caffeine or diuretics before the test.
• Continue medications only as advised by your doctor.
• Wear comfortable clothing for easy access.
• Report urinary symptoms clearly so the urologist can correlate them with findings.

Why this test is not available at a Regular Pathology Lab

Many labs offer uroflowmetry, but results without clinical interpretation can be misleading.
Here’s why specialized centres like Urocentre are essential:

• Urologist Supervision: Labs often lack specialists to interpret data accurately.
• Advanced Equipment: Generic flow meters may give inaccurate or incomplete graphs.
• Controlled Conditions: Full bladder volume and privacy are crucial for valid readings.
• Comprehensive Evaluation: Labs skip post-void residual urine scans, often needed for full assessment.
• Clinical Follow-Up: Only urologists can correlate results with symptoms and advise treatment.
