Urodynamic Differences between Complete and Incomplete Spinal Cord Injuries with Neurogenic Detrusor Overactivity

Abstract: Objective: To analyze if there are urodynamic differences in patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) secondary to spinal cord injury (SCI) depending on whether the SCI is complete or incomplete according to the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) classification. Methods: A retrospective and comparative study was carried out, including 194 patients with suprasacral SCI and NDO. Maximum cystometric capacity (MCC), volume at first involuntary contraction (VIC), compliance, maximum pressure of t… Show more

“…UDS is widely used for patients with suspected neurogenic lower urinary tract disturbance (NLUTD) [1]. There are several issues as to UDS and NLUTD [2, 3]. Some patients have symptomatic post-UDS infectious complications, especially urinary tract infection (UTI), partly due to chronic bacteriuria, pyuria, or nonspecific inflammation caused by the patients’ immune status and bacterial status, including bacterial numbers or virulence factors.…”

“…After SCI, the loss of contact between the higher voiding centers in the brain, that control the bladder and the lower voiding centers in the spinal cord cause voiding or urinary storage disorders, manifest by urinary retention, urinary incontinence, or a mixture of both, which severely affects the quality of life of patients (40). The most common cause of death in lower urinary tract voiding disorders after spinal cord injury is renal failure due to long-term recurrent vesicoureteral reflux caused by urinary retention (41,42).…”

“…NDO is a urodynamic phenomenon characterized by spontaneous reflex detrusor contractions at lower bladder volumes (14). Bladder function depends on both central and peripheral nervous systems for the harmonization of the filling and voiding phases, and neurogenic bladder can be described as a pathological change in micturition reflex.…”
