ABSTRACT
Currently, invasive urodynamic testing is the " gold standard" for the diagnosis of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). However, this test is invasive, easy to cause hematuria, urinary tract infection and other complications, the application conditions are limited.In order to solve this problem, various non-invasive methods to diagnose or predict BOO have been studied.The use of existing inspection indicators such as ultrasound measurement, penile cuff test, near infrared spectroscopy and other new non-invasive methods provide a new research direction for the non-invasive diagnosis of bladder outlet obstruction.
ABSTRACT
Extremity compartment syndrome can cause neuromuscular ischemia and deposition of metabolites in the compartment,leading to irreversible lesions which harm limb functions in the end.It is a great challenge for surgeons to make a timely and accurate diagnosis of the syndrome in adults and children.The key is evaluation of the clinical symptoms and intracompartmental pressure.In this paper we summarize the epidemiology,etiology,pathophysiology,and current diagnosis and treatment of acute extremity compartment syndrome of the upper and lower extremities in adults and children.
