Voiding pressures in boys: Pdetmax versus pdetQmax & #8211; Does it make a difference ?

Conclusion: Existing literature on pediatric voiding studies mentions voiding pressures during variable phases of void (usually Pdetmax) and the values have been very heterogeneous, making voiding pressure-flow studies unreliable in children. PdetQmax values are much lower than values quoted as “standard” pressures and are age independent. The use of PdetQmax instead of PdetMax may make voiding pressures in children more reproducible and informative.
