Abstract

The bladder diary (BD) provides an objective non-invasive method of investigating lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) while symptom questionnaires, such as the ICIQ-MLUTS (1) and ICIQ-FLUTS (2) for males and females respectively, provide a subjective assessment. The association between objective and subjective assessments has not been well established for the ICIQ. This study hypothesises that there is strong positive association between the ICIQ-MLUTS/FLUTS and the ICIQ-BD (3).
