ABSTRACT
The aim of the study was to investigate the occurrence and duration of micromotions of the bladder wall. Thirty women with CPP and 7 healthy women underwent micromotion detection (MMD). A latex balloon provided with eight electrodes was placed within the bladder through the urethra and filled with saline up to 200 ml. Micromotions (MM), pressure within the balloon, abdominal pressure and respiratory excursions of the abdomen were registered simultaneously. A significant difference in duration as well as frequency of occurrence was found for MM activity between subjects with CPP and controls. For the occurrence of variations in detrusor presure, the difference between groups tended towards significance. We conclude that there are indications that the bladder is involved in CPP.
