Neurogenic bladder dysfunction

S A Koff et al. Am Fam Physician. 1979 Feb.

Abstract

The combined use of cystometry and perineal electromyography permits the physician to detect abnormalities in the synchronization of bladder contraction and urinary sphincter relaxation. With each pattern of neurogenic bladder disease, the coordination between bladder and sphincter determines whether urinary tract problems will develop. Treatment is tailored to specific bladder and sphincter defects.
