Article Synopsis
- The study investigates pregnancy and delivery outcomes in women with congenital spinal cord defects and neurogenic bladder, an area where data are limited.
- The research involved 16 women with a median age of 29.4 years, contributing to 20 pregnancies, with a mix of caesarean and vaginal deliveries, facing complications like urinary tract infections.
- Successful pregnancies can occur, but they require careful management of urinary tract infection risks and changes in bladder function during and after pregnancy.*
Purpose: Ice Water Test (IWT) is not frequently used today. IWT triggers a non-inhibited involuntary detrusor contraction (NIDC) when the bladder is being filled with cold saline solution. NIDC is unmasked via a segmental reflex loop different from the physiological micturition reflex.

Nevertheless, drugs prescribed during a hospital stay can have a significant risk of adverse events. Vitamin K antagonists (VKA) are among them.

Methods: Three positions were compared: permanently supine (16 periods), seated on
Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence of claw toes and its correlation to other lower limb disorders as well as the global functional recovery in a population of hemiplegic patients 1year post-stroke.
Patients And Methods: This prospective study included 39 stroke patients hospitalized in the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) department of a hospital between September2000 and September2001. The evaluation looked for incidence of claw toes during the first year post-stroke and whether there was a potential link to triceps surae spasticity, motor impairment of the leg and patients' functional abilities (Barthel Index, postural assessment scale for stroke patients [PASS], functional ambulation classification [FAC]).
