Abstract: Objective To investigate the application of sympathetic skin response (SSR) in evaluation of the bladder sensation with fillingcystometry (FC). Methods 15 healthy male adults accepted FC and FC-SSR. Their first desire to void capability (FDC), maximum cystometriccapacity (MCC) and FDC/MCC under FC and FC-SSR were compared. Results The FDC was (193.8±36.9) ml and FDC/MCC was(58.9±8.03) with FC, which was less than (233.9±30.3) ml and (69.4±2.92) respectively with FC-SSR (P<0.01). Conclusion FC-SSR maybe a stable method for examination the function of bladder sensation.

Key words: sympathetic skin response, filling cystometry, bladder sensation
