Bladder relief

A computer program that can predict who will survive a stroke is being used to identify the causes of incontinence.

Information on pressures in the bladder and flow rates will be fed into a computer by Mike Horan of the University of Manchester. The program will identify factors relevant to predicting the causes of incontinence. These will be fed into a neural net that will evaluate the information to identify the most important predictive factors. The technique is more accurate than standard statistics.
