Correlation of Ultrasound-Measured Detrusor and Bladder Wall Thickness With Urodynamic Parameters in Spinal Cord Injury

This study aims to investigate the correlation between detrusor and bladder wall thickness measured by suprapubic ultrasound and urodynamic parameters in patients with spinal cord injury. By evaluating ultrasonographic measurements alongside urodynamic findings, the study seeks to assess their relationship in a prospective cross-sectional setting.

This single-center, prospective cross-sectional observational study was conducted to evaluate the association between detrusor and bladder wall thickness measured by suprapubic ultrasound and urodynamic parameters in patients with spinal cord injury. Patients with spinal cord injury were prospectively enrolled and underwent suprapubic ultrasonography and urodynamic evaluation as part of the study protocol. Detrusor wall thickness and bladder wall thickness were measured using suprapubic ultrasonography according to a standardized protocol. Urodynamic parameters, including detrusor pressure and other relevant measurements, were recorded during routine urodynamic assessment. The relationship between ultrasonographic measurements and urodynamic findings was analyzed to assess their correlation.
