Table 2 Grading of the urodynamic study parameters by Meyrat et al. [17]. The 4 parameters that were included were: 1. Bladder volume 2. Compliance 3. Detrusor activity 4. Vesico-sphincteric synergy/Detrusor sphincter dyssynergia (DSD). Classification of UDS is as follows: 0 to 4 is normal, 5 and 6 raises question of neuro-urological disorder and needs to be repeated, more than 6 is abnormal
