AI Article Synopsis
- The text discusses a phenotype-based strategy for understanding neurogenic bladder (NGB) in patients with various conditions like spinal cord injury, spina bifida, cerebral palsy, and multiple sclerosis.
- It outlines surgical management options based on whether the main issue is inability to store or empty urine, highlighting techniques such as catheterizable channels and bladder augmentation.
- The importance of addressing complications and considering factors like social support, body type, and limb function is emphasized for better surgical outcomes.
Article Abstract
We present a phenotype-based approach to neurogenic bladder (NGB) by describing prototypical patients with spinal cord injury (SCI), spina bifida (SB), cerebral palsy (CP), and multiple sclerosis (MS). Surgical management is categorized by failure to store and failure to empty, with a focus on catheterizable channels, bladder augmentation, and bladder outlet procedures. Mitigation and management of common complications are reviewed. Specific attention is paid to social support, body habitus, and extremity function, as we believe a holistic approach is necessary for appropriate surgical selection.

Introduction: Detrusor contractions can be classified as either volitional or involuntary. The latter are a hallmark of urge urinary incontinence. Understanding differences in neuroactivation associated with both types of contractions can help elucidate pathophysiology and therapeutic targets.

Objective: To assess the available evidence of non-invasive or minimally invasive neuromodulation therapies in improving urodynamic outcomes, voiding diaries, and quality of life in patients with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) after spinal cord injury (SCI).
Data Sources: A comprehensive search of 10 databases from inception until August 30, 2023 was conducted.
Study Selection: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effects of conventional treatment (CT) and CT combined with sham stimulation (SS), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), sacral nerve magnetic stimulation (SNMS), TMS+SNMS, sacral pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (SPEMFT), sacral transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (STENS), sacral dermatomal transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (SDTENS), bladder & sacral transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (B&STENS), transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS), transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS), pelvic floor electrical stimulation (PFES), or pelvic floor biofeedback therapy (PFBFBT) on postvoid residual volume (PVR), maximum cystometric capacity (MCC), number of voids per 24 h (V24), mean urine volume per micturition, (MUV), maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), maximum detrusor pressure (MDP), maximum voiding volume (MVV), number of leakages per 24 h (L24), lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) score, and spinal cord injury-quality of life (SCI-QoL)score in patients with NLUTD after SCI were included.

Introduction: In pediatric urology, urodynamic studies are considered the most reliable method for assessing the function of the lower urinary tract. These evaluations play a particularly important role in guiding treatment decisions for neurogenic bladder conditions.
Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the impact of artifacts on the interobserver and intraobserver agreement in the interpretation of pediatric urodynamic traces.
