The cause of female urethral instability is still controversial. With the help of this retrospective analysis of 1168 continuous long-term recordings of the intraurethral pressure at the maximum point of urethral pressure, the correlation between pressure variations (UPV) and simultaneous bladder instability was investigated. It could be stated that clinically important UPV (more than 15 cmH2O) are found more often in women who suffer from signs of bladder instability (defined as low bladder compliance combined with uninhibited detrusor contractions and/or urinary leakage) than in patients without signs of unstable bladder.
