“…Among patients with chronic‐degenerative diseases, specifically neurogenic bladder patients as discussed in this study, the evolution of specific treatments has significantly increased life expectancy and conditions. Neurogenic bladder patients can be defined as patients affected by any nerve injury that interferes in the neurological bladder functioning due to a disease, lesion, or congenital defect that affect the brain, the spinal cord, or the nerves leading to the bladder, sphincter, or both (O'Leary & Dierich, ).…”
