A data capture template was designed from the ICS Fundamentals of Urodynamic Practice checklist. Two pretrained blinded assessors extracted the data, with a third assessor to arbitrate. Departmental records of calibration checks and equipment maintenance were scrutinized.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Seven out of twenty\u2010five (28%) departments reported no calibration checks. Four sites (16%) could not provide annual service records. In 32 out of 296 (10.8%) uroflowmetry traces, findings were affected by artifact. One hundred ten urodynamic study traces were reviewed; in 11 records (10%), key pressure traces were incompletely displayed. In 30 (27.2%), reference zero was not set to atmospheric pressure. Resting pressures were outside the expected range for 36 (32.7%). Pressure drift was seen in 18 traces (16.4%). At pressure\u2010flow study commencement, permission to void was omitted in 15 (13.6%). Cough testing after voiding was done in 71.2%, but the resulting cough spikes were significantly different in 16.5%. Erroneous diagnosis of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) was identified in six cases (5.5%).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Erroneous diagnosis of BOO is a serious error of interpretation, as it could lead to unnecessary surgery. Other errors of standardization, testing, and interpretation were identified with lower risk of adverse implications. Inconsistent documentation of service records mean equipment accuracy is uncertain.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/nau.24337","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,18]],"date-time":"2020-03-18T21:24:01Z","timestamp":1584566641000},"page":"1170-1177","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":49,"title":["Quality control of uroflowmetry and urodynamic data from two large multicenter studies of male lower urinary tract symptoms"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"Martino","family":"Aiello","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Bristol Urological Institute Southmead Hospital  Bristol UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joseph","family":"Jelski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bristol Urological Institute Southmead Hospital  Bristol UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amanda","family":"Lewis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bristol Randomised Trials Collaboration (BRTC), Bristol Trials Centre University of Bristol  Bristol UK"},{"name":"Population Health Sciences, Bristol Medical School University of Bristol  Bristol UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jo","family":"Worthington","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bristol Randomised Trials Collaboration (BRTC), Bristol Trials Centre University of Bristol  Bristol UK"},{"name":"Population Health Sciences, Bristol Medical School University of Bristol  Bristol UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Charlotte","family":"McDonald","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bristol Randomised Trials Collaboration (BRTC), Bristol Trials Centre University of Bristol  Bristol UK"},{"name":"Population Health Sciences, Bristol Medical School University of Bristol  Bristol UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paul","family":"Abrams","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bristol Urological Institute Southmead Hospital  Bristol UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5546-357X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andrew","family":"Gammie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bristol Urological Institute Southmead Hospital  Bristol UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9407-382X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chris","family":"Harding","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Urology Department Freeman Hospital  Newcastle upon Tyne UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Suzanne","family":"Biers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Urology Department Addenbrooke's Hospital  Cambridge UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2467-407X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hashim","family":"Hashim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bristol Urological Institute Southmead Hospital  Bristol UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.
