Çocuklarda ve Adölesanlarda Alt Üriner Sistem Fonksiyonu Terminolojisinin Standardizasyonu: Uluslararası Çocuk Kontinans Derneği Standardizasyon Komitesi'nden Güncelleme Raporu

Özet (abstract)

PURPOSE: The impact of the original International Children's Continence Society terminology document on lower urinary tract function resulted in the global establishment of uniformity and clarity in the characterization of lower urinary tract function and dysfunction in children across multiple health care disciplines. The present document serves as a stand-alone terminology update reflecting refinement and current advancement of knowledge on pediatric lower urinary tract function. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A variety of worldwide experts from multiple disciplines in the ICCS leadership who care for children with lower urinary tract dysfunction were assembled as part of the standardization committee. A critical review of the previous ICCS terminology document and the current literature was performed. In addition, contributions and feedback from the multidisciplinary ICCS membership were solicited. RESULTS: Following a review of the literature during the last 7 years the ICCS experts assembled a new terminology document reflecting the current understanding of bladder function and lower urinary tract dysfunction in children using resources from the literature review, expert opinion and ICCS member feedback. CONCLUSIONS: The present ICCS terminology document provides a current and consensus update to the evolving terminology and understanding of lower urinary tract function in children.
