“…In the present case the voiding symptoms were not accom panied by upper tract complications. The striking and maintained effect on the voiding habits, and the otherwise treatment-resistant enuresis make it most probable that bio-feed back treatment of voiding disorders, espe cially DSD, might have an important place, as has been shown in other examples with detrusor hyperreflexia and hypotonic bladder [Cardozo et al, 1978;Hafner, 1981].…”

Bio-feedback has recently been taken into use in the treatment of diseases of muscular origin. Here it is possible to establish a self-controlling relaxation and straining of muscles. Detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia of non-neurological origin is possibly a functional development disorder well suited for bio-feedback treatment. A bio-feedback circuit and the treatment of a patient with detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia is described in the present paper.

“…More recently, in 1978, Cardozo et al [4,5] reported the use of bladder pressure bio feedback to treat motor urge incontinence. Patients were provided with both visual and auditory feedback of bladder pressures with the goal of minimizing bladder pressures dur ing repeated bladder filling.…”

Behavioral training procedures provide an effective, low-risk approach to the treatment of persistent urinary incontinence. This paper describes the use of biofeedback techniques for the operant conditioning of physiological responses, such as selective contraction of pelvic floor muscles and voluntary inhibition of detrusor contraction, that mediate bladder control. The effectiveness of biofeedback-assisted behavioral training for most independent-living older adults is documented in several research studies. The data indicate that behavioral treatment of stress or urge incontinence results in improvement rates which range from 78 to 94%. The role of biofeedback in behavioral training and its practicality for use in office practice are also discussed.

“…The biofeedback technique in volves a technical recording and amplifying of a biological response which can than be heard or seen by the patient. Subsequently the patient tries to influence the response in the direction desired [9][10][11], The use of a urinary flow meter for this purpose, with or without the support of anticholinergic drugs, has been described previously by van Gool et al [8] for treatment of children with urge syn drome and dysfunctional voiding. This method proved to be exceedingly promising to relearn the psychophysiological process of becoming continent for urine.…”
