DESCRIPTION OF CT3000 - Urodynamic systems
The CT3000 Explained
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is the term used to describe the benign - i.e. noncancerous - enlargement of the prostate gland, a walnut-shaped gland located beneath the bladder. According to NICE, in BPH, Benign Prostatic Enlargement (BPE) causes narrowing of the urethra where it passes through the prostate, leading in turn to Bladder Outlet Obstruction (BOO) and Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS). The Gold Standard diagnostic test for investigating BOOs, is known as a Pressure-Flow Study (PFS). However, this invasive test is expensive (and contributes to the enormous expenditure on treating suspicious BPHs, which is £55,357,650), time-consuming and requires skilled analysis and interpretation of results.
The non invasive cuff test however provides a rapid means of investigating men with LUTS. The technology measures both the urinary flow rate of a patient and the pressure their bladder generates to produce this flow. A specialised cuff, placed around the shaft of the penis, is temporarily inflated to obstruct flow and the cuff pressure required to interrupt voiding, which then provides a measure of bladder pressure. The combination of maximum flow rate and cuff pressure can then be used to determine whether BOO is present or not. The non invasive cuff test is intended to compliment standard pressure flow studies and current diagnostic options available to patients.
