<unk>  diagnosis requires knowing the patient's<unk> l urine volume (NUV). The ICS defines NUV as “the total volume of urine passed between the time the individual goes to bed with the intention of sleeping and the time of waking with the intention of rising.” Thus, NUV excludes the last void before going to bed, but includes the first morning void if the urge to urinate woke the patient. The amount of sleep a patient gets, and the amount they intend to get, are also considered in a diagnosis. As with any patient, a detailed history of the problem is required to establish what is normal for that patient. The principal diagnostic tool for<unk>  is the voiding bladder diary. Based on information recorded in the diary, a physician can classify the patient as having global polyuria,<unk> l polyuria, or bladder storage problems. A voiding bladder diary should record: * number of voids * timing of voids * volume voided * volume and time of fluid intake Patients should include the first morning void in the NUV. However, the first morning void is not included with the number of nightly voids.
