This study showed that although all four formulae correlated significantly, the PC of 0.52 was the only formula without a significant difference from the actual volume. More work is needed to produce patient individualised PC. Our clinicians were able to accurately estimate the PVR on X-ray. This study has identified the best formula to accurately estimate bladder volume and that video estimation along with the "bubbles" test can avoid unnecessary intervention.
