That's -- ahem -- after peeing. May occur post-prandially, but not necessarily!

postmictional


Explanation:
That's how I usually translate it

e.g.:

"We also did a full Urodynamic study including measurement of Flow and Postmictional Residue, Cystomanometry and test of the Detrusor Pressure/Mictional Flow."

neutral  hph: mict- vs. minz-: I think in English it has to be miction, not miNction, only in Italian the Latin word has changed to minz-(ionale, minzione)

Explanation:
Harold,

just in case you need a slightly less technical term than those suggested by colleagues (suppose you're trying to be undestood by the patient!), I would suggest the above, which is the expression used by medical staff when talking to mere mortals... ;-)
