This trial will assess whether use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts sensation during filling (i.e., a change of more than 25% of first sensation, first desire to void, strong desire to void, or maximum cystometric capacity) and determine whether the use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts pain/discomfort, filling metrics, and voiding metrics.
This trial is a randomized, double blind, controlled trial for patients undergoing complex cystometric evaluation. Patients will undergo routine complex cystometric evaluation for acquisition of baseline data using a small amount of intraurethral aqueous jelly for catheter lubrication. Then, they will be randomized to instillation of either placebo (additional intraurethral aqueous jelly, 5ml) or intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly. Participants then undergo complex cystometry a second time. Normal variations in studies with placebo will be compared to variations within the 2% lidocaine jelly group to determine if cystometric parameters are altered in any clinically important ways. Patient discomfort will also be evaluated by both the patient and the urodynamics advanced practice nurse.

Sensation as Indicated by the Volume of Water Filled (ml) at the Time of Patient Perception of First Sensation, First Urge to Void, Strong Urge to Void, and Full Bladder Capacity During Bladder Filling.
Assess whether use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts sensation during filling (especially, strong desire to void).
Time frame: Within same visit, approximately 90-120 minutes.
Patient Perception of Pain/Discomfort as Indicated by Visual Analog Scale (Scale of 0-100 With 0 Being no Pain and 100 Being the Worst the Pain Imaginable).
Determine whether the use of intraurethral lidocaine 2% jelly meaningfully impacts pain/discomfort measured by a visual analog scale during cystometry (catheter insertion and at maximum cystometric capacity), during pressure flow study (PFS), and post-procedure.
Time frame: Change from cystometrogram 1 to cystometrogram 2 within same visit, approximately 90-120 minutes.
Provider Perception of Patient Pain/Discomfort as Indicated by Visual Analog Scale (Scale of 0-100 With 0 Being no Pain and 100 Being the Worst Pain Imaginable).
Determine whether the use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts provider perception of patient discomfort.
Time frame: Change from cystometrogram 1 to cystometrogram 2 within same visit, approximately 90-120 minutes.
Filling Metrics: Number of Participants With Detrusor Overactivity
Determine whether the use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts the presence/absence of detrusor overactivity (bladder spasm) during urodynamic bladder testing. Detrusor overactivity was noted and compared between placebo and lidocaine jelly on UDS #2.
Time frame: Cystometrogram 2 within same visit, approximately 90-120 minutes.
Filling Metrics: Number of Participants With Normal Bladder Compliance
Determine whether the use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts bladder compliance (change in volume/ change in detrusor pressure (Pdet)). Compliance in UDS #2 was noted and compared in both groups: water-based lubricant and intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly. Results indicate how many participants in which normal compliance was observed. \*There were 3 missing data values in our data.
Time frame: Within same visit, approximately 90-120 minutes.
Voiding Metrics: Maximum Flow Rate
Determine whether the use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts maximum flow rate (mL/sec).
Time frame: Within same visit, approximately 90-120 minutes.
Voiding Metrics: Voiding Pattern (Normal vs. Intermittent/Interrupted vs Prolonged) as Perceived by Provider Interpretation of Pressure Flow Study During Voiding Based on Seconds to Void and Whether Urine Stream is Constant or Intermittent/Interrupted.
Determine whether the use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts voiding pattern. Voiding pattern was assessed in UDS #2 and identified as either "normal", "prolonged", "intermittent", "interrupted" or a combination of those identifiers and compared between the two groups.
Time frame: within same visit, approximately 90-120 minutes.
Voiding Metrics: Voided Volume and Post-void Residual
Determine whether the use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts voided volume and post-void residual (mL) as recorded during UDS #2.
Time frame: Within same visit, approximately 90-120 minutes.
Voiding Metrics: Percentage of Voiding Efficiency
Determine whether the use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts voiding efficiency, which is calculated as the voided volume (mL) divided by the sum of the voided volume (mL) and the post-void residual volume (mL). Voiding efficiency was compared by treatment arm in UDS #2.
Time frame: Cystometrogram 2 within same visit, approximately 90-120 minutes.
Voiding Metrics: Pdet Max
Determine whether the use of intraurethral 2% lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts Pdet Max (cm/H2O) on UDS #2.
Time frame: Within same visit, approximately 90-120 minutes.
Voiding Metrics: Pdet Peak Flow
Determine whether the use of intraurethral 2\& lidocaine jelly meaningfully impacts Pdet Peak Flow (cm/H2O) on UDS #2.
Time frame: Within same visit, approximately 90-120 minutes.
