  2. Bladder sphincter dyssynergia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bladder_sphincter_dyssynergia

    Bladder sphincter dyssynergia (also known as detrusor sphincter dyssynergia (DSD) (the ICS standard terminology agreed 1998) [1] and neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO)) is a consequence of a neurological pathology such as spinal injury [2] or multiple sclerosis [3] which disrupts central nervous system regulation of the micturition (urination) reflex resulting in dyscoordination of the ...

  3. Dyssynergia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyssynergia

    Bladder sphincter dyssynergia also known as detrusor sphincter dyssynergia is the decrease of detrusor (wall muscle of the bladder) pressure which causes unwanted urination. This is very common in spinal cord injuries and multiple sclerosis patients. There is a malfunction between the central nervous system, urinary sphincters, and detrusor ...

  4. Neurogenic bladder dysfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurogenic_bladder_dysfunction

    The most valuable test to test for detrusor sphincter dyssynergia (DESD) is to perform cystometry simultaneously with external sphincter electromyography (EMG). [8] Uroflowmetry is a less-invasive study that can measure urine flow rate and use it to estimate detrusor strength and sphincter resistance.

  5. Suprapubic cystostomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suprapubic_cystostomy

    It is also a common treatment used among spinal cord injury patients who are unable or unwilling to use intermittent catheterization to empty the bladder and cannot otherwise void due to detrusor sphincter dyssynergia.

  6. Urinary retention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urinary_retention

    Urinary retention is a disorder treated in a hospital, and the quicker one seeks treatment, the fewer the complications. [citation needed] In the longer term, obstruction of the urinary tract may cause: [citation needed] Bladder stones; Atrophy of the detrusor muscle (atonic bladder is an extreme form) Hydronephrosis (congestion of the kidneys)

  7. Prostatic stent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostatic_stent

    Permanent stents are used to relieve urinary obstructions secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), recurrent bulbar urethral stricture (RBUS), or detrusor external sphincter dyssynergia (DESD). [9] The main motive for removal of permanent stents is worsening of symptoms even with device fitted.

  8. Solifenacin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solifenacin

    The efficacy of solifenacin to treat neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) was established in two clinical trials with a total of 95 pediatric NDO participants, ages two to 17 years old. [2] The studies were designed to measure (as a primary efficacy endpoint) the maximum amount of urine the bladder could hold after 24 weeks of treatment. [2]

  9. Underactive bladder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underactive_Bladder

    Without diagnostic evaluation, the cause of underactive bladder is unclear, as there are multiple possible causes. UAB symptoms can accurately reflect impaired bladder emptying due either to DU or obstruction (normal or large storage volumes, elevated post-void residual volume), or can result from a sense of incomplete emptying of a hypersensitive bladder (small storage volumes, normal or ...
