Same-day virtual video appointments and in-person appointments are available.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Post-void residual volume measurement is one of the most important tests<\/strong> along with the uroflowmetry<\/a> <\/strong>that are used to evaluate the severity of the prostatic obstruction of urinary flow.<\/p>\n Post-void urine residual volume and the uroflow tests are used both before and after the treatment of enlarged prostate<\/a> to determine the success of treatment.<\/p>\n Postvoid residual can be measured using ultrasound (sonogram)<\/strong> to measure the volume left in the bladder after urination. PVR can also be measured by inserting a urinary catheter inside the bladder after urination to drain and measure residual urine in the urinary bladder that is left after urination. At New York Urology Specialists<\/a>, we measure post-void residual using high-resolution ultrasound to achieve the highest level of precision<\/strong>. <\/p>\n Postvoid residual<\/strong> is used in men and women with urinary problems to determine the cause of the problem and to guide treatment. Elevated postvoid residual volume can predispose to urinary tract infections, frequent urination and can be a sign of multiple urological problems.<\/p>\n Elevated postvoid residual (PVR)<\/strong> is a sign of incomplete bladder emptying and urinary retention.<\/p>\n Elevated postvoid residual<\/strong> or incomplete bladder emptying may be caused by damage to the nerves of the bladder or bladder muscles that do not contract effectively to empty the bladder. <\/p>\n Bladder diverticula, bladder tumors, and bladder stones may also cause elevated postvoid residual.<\/p>\n Incomplete bladder emptying<\/strong> is most commonly caused by an increased resistance of blockage that prevents complete bladder emptying. The causes of incomplete bladder emptying are different in men and women.<\/p>\n In women<\/strong>, the most common causes of incomplete bladder emptying are pelvic organ prolapse. <\/p>\n In men<\/strong>, the most common cause of incomplete bladder emptying<\/a> is enlarged prostate caused by BPH. Urethral strictures may also cause incomplete bladder emptying and urinary retention.<\/p>\n Treatment of elevated postvoid residual depends on the underlying problem and the symptoms that it is causing. Treatment may include medications<\/a>, surgery<\/a>, and behavioral modification.<\/p>\n For patients suffering from symptoms of the enlarged prostate such as slow urine stream, urinary urge, frequent urination, and waking up at night to urinate, procedures such as Urolift procedure<\/a><\/strong> and Rezum procedure<\/a><\/strong> are currently available in the United States. They have similar efficacy and safety profile as iTind<\/a><\/strong>. These procedures are performed in our offices at New York Urology Specialists.<\/p>\n For men with very large prostates, holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HOLEP)<\/a><\/strong> and Aquablation of the prostate<\/a><\/strong> a good and effective treatment option.
