Interrater Reliability in Interpretation of Neuropathic Pediatric Urodynamic Tracings: An Expanded Multicenter Study

Abstract

Experienced pediatric urologists demonstrate variability during interpretation of videourodynamic tracings. Subjectivity of assessment of electromyographic activity and detrusor overactivity was confirmed in this expanded study. Future work to improve the reliability of videourodynamic interpretation would improve the quality of clinical care and the quality of multi-institutional studies that use urodynamic data points as outcomes.
