Press the
Start Pull
button to mark the start of the profile (note: this is
an immediate marker). The metronome will help you to pull the catheter
with a constant speed. One beep corresponds to one centimeter. An
increase in urethral pressure (P
ura
) indicates that the urethral sensor
enters the urethra. When P
ura
increases > 10 cmH
2
O, a Profile start
marker will be inserted automatically (backwards in time). The position
of the marker will be determined by the software and is based on P
ura
at the start. When P
ura
decreases to a certain value, a Profile end
marker will be inserted automatically by the software. Also, the
Maximum Urethral Closure Pressure marker (MUCP) will be inserted
automatically on the highest pressure.
