The ICDQ is a valid test for the evaluation of catheter use, and of patients' difficulties during CISC. However, in order to facilitate CISC, we propose the interpretation of ICDQ results, drug combinations such as the use of alpha-blockers or botulinum toxin injections in the external urethral sphincter, or a change of catheter.
