History, clinical examination, imaging and urodynamics are useful steps in diagnosing female stress urinary incontinence; there is however no single specific test for grading and staging incontinence. We studied 75 patients with stress urinary incontinence to evaluate the predictive value of history and clinical examination in diagnosis, compared to imaging and urodynamics. We considered parity, concurrent pathologies and therapies or surgery, 24-hour PAD-test, Q-tip test and pubo-coccigeal test versus translabial introital ultrasonography and urodynamics. Patients were divided into one group with cysto-rectocele and another without prolapse; we found no meaningful correlations except for 7 patients with sphincter damage. In the other women, history and clinical examination may only be helpful to choose proper diagnostic tools.
