Are There Any Risks Associated with Stress Testing?
While generally safe, stress testing can have some risks, including:
- Discomfort: During tests like urodynamic testing, the insertion of catheters can be uncomfortable. - Infection: There is a small risk of urinary tract infections following procedures involving catheterization. - False Positives/Negatives: Stress tests are not foolproof and can sometimes yield inaccurate results.
