Detailed Bladder Function Test With Voiding Pressure

Colorado rates for HCPCS 51728

A bladder catheter connected to calibrated electronic equipment measures pressure and volume as the bladder is filled and then as the patient urinates, checking how well the bladder stores and empties. This more detailed version specifically adds measurement of the pressure generated during urination itself, not just the filling phase. It is used to investigate issues like urinary incontinence, difficulty emptying the bladder, or unexplained urinary symptoms.
