  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. Neurogenic bladder dysfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurogenic_bladder_dysfunction

    Treatment depends on the type of neurogenic bladder and other medical problems. Treatment strategies include catheterization, medications, surgeries or other procedures. The goals of treatment focus on preserving the structure and function of the upper urinary tract, and on improving the quality of life for patients with neurogenic bladder. [2]

  4. 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 ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. Pseudodyssynergia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudodyssynergia

    Pseudodyssynergia (or detrusor sphincter pseudodyssynergia) is an urological condition involving contraction of the male or female external sphincter during voiding. [ 1 ] Coordination between the sphincter and detrusor is thus lost.

  7. Pelvic floor dysfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelvic_floor_dysfunction

    Treatment for pelvic floor dysfunction, especially the symptom of urinary incontinence, is essential, but so is prevention. Patients are usually encouraged to change their lifestyles; interventions such as reducing body weight, limiting the use of stimulants, quitting smoking, limiting strenuous efforts, preventing constipation and increasing ...

  8. Detrusor muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detrusor_muscle

    The detrusor muscle, also detrusor urinae muscle, muscularis propria of the urinary bladder and (less precise) muscularis propria, is smooth muscle found in the wall of the bladder. The detrusor muscle remains relaxed to allow the bladder to store urine , and contracts during urination to release urine.

  9. Internal urethral sphincter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_urethral_sphincter

    The internal urethral sphincter is a urethral sphincter muscle which constricts the internal urethral orifice.It is located at the junction of the urethra with the urinary bladder and is continuous with the detrusor muscle, [1] [2] but anatomically and functionally fully independent from it. [3]
