Abstract

BACKGROUND: Uroflowmetry remains an important tool for the assessment of patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), but accuracy can be limited by within-subject variation of urinary flow rates. Voiding acoustics appear to correlate well with conventional uroflowmetry and show promise as a convenient home-based alternative for the monitoring of urinary flows.
