Using the following chart, please record all urinations and
episodes of urinary incontinence. If you leak urine, then gauge
it as a small, medium, or large leak and record this is the
chart below. It is also helpful to write down what caused the
leakage (ie cough, sneeze, etc), and any symptoms felt at the
time of leakage (urgency or pain)
If you are emptying your bladder with a catheter, please record
the time, and how much is drained. In addition, you should
record your Post-Void Residual (PVR) once daily. This is done by
urinating normally without the aid of a catheter, then
immediately inserting a catheter to see how much was left
behind. This is a good measure of the emptying capacity of your
bladder.
Use the following Symbols:
V = Normal Void
C = Catheterized Void
I = Incontinent
PVR = Post Void Residual
