OBJECTIVE: To study the action of an alpha blocker, Moxisylyte hydrochloride, during an intravenous test on the course of urethral pressure in women with urethral instability associated with urethral hypertonia. METHODS: The population consisted of 20 women with a mean age of 38 years, presenting with a clinical disorder of micturition (urinary incontinence: 15 cases, urgency: 17 cases, frequency, 17 cases) present for an average of 4 years and associated with resting urethral pressure variations ranging from 22 to 88 cm H2O (mean: 44.8 cm H2O) and static urethral pressures ranging 72 to 150 cm H2O (mean: 102.5 cm H2O). An urodynamic assessment was performed before and after intravenous injection of Moxisylyte hydrochloride at the dose of 0.5 mg/kg. RESULTS: Moxisylyte hydrochloride induced a significant reduction of urethral pressure variations, ranging from 8 to 42 cm H2O (mean: 21.9 cm H2O) and static urethral pressures, ranging from 47 to 102 cm H2O (mean: 68.8 cm H2O). Treatment was well tolerated in every case. CONCLUSION: These preliminary results need to be completed by a randomized placebo-controlled study to confirm a statistically significant effect of Moxisylyte hydrochloride on urethral pressure stability in women presenting with urethral instability.

The authors report the value of a clinical test for the evaluation of vesico-sphincteric function in the demonstration of urinary disorders in the elderly. This simple, inexpensive test which can be performed at the patient's bedside, was performed in 175 elderly patients with a mean age of 81.2 years, mostly suffering from urinary incontinence (66.2%) and mostly (80%) derived from intermediate and long-term geriatric units. The mechanisms most often detected was detrusor instability (41% of patients). Cystomanometric data, obtained in 80 patients, were analysed and compared retrospectively with the data of the test: they demonstrated a good correlation in terms of evaluation of detrusor stability. As part of the overall management, this test constitutes a real diagnostic tool available to nursing staff, particularly in geriatric institutions not equipped with more specialised investigations.

The authors report about the merits of a clinical test for the evaluation of bladder and sphincter function in the analysis of urinary disorders in the aged. This simple and inexpensive bedside test has been carried out in 175 subjects whose mean age was 81.2 years, and the majority of whom (66.2%) presented with urinary incontinence; 80% of the patients came from longterm-care geriatric departments. The most frequent mechanism is bladder instability (41% of all patients). The cystomanometric data obtained in 80 subjects were analysed and retrospectively compared to the test data: they showed good correlation for the study of vesical stability. From the viewpoint of general health care, this test is a real diagnostic tool for the practitioners, in particular in geriatric departments without further specialised exploration commodities.
