Conditions

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Brief summary

UDS evaluates the impact of Prostatic Urethral Lift (PUL) as measured by pressure flow, urodynamic testing (UDS) and an optional UroCuff Testing, an alternative urodynamic test. In addition, standard BPH measures such as symptoms, qualify of life, uroflowmetry, and post void residual will be evaluated at screening and at the follow-up visits.

Interventions

DEVICEUroLift

The UroLift System is indicated for the treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). During the procedure, an implant is delivered into the prostatic lobe obstructing the urethra and restricting urine flow. The distal end of the device is used to compress the lobe then the implant is delivered to retain the lobe in position, thereby increasing the urethral opening and reducing the fluid obstruction through the prostatic urethra.
