[Effects of various kinds of conservative treatment on urodynamics and microcirculation in females with hyperactive
Abstract:
Urodynamic and microcirculatory parameters were studied in 70 females aged from 21 to 70 years with hyperactive urinary bladder (HAUB) and 15 females free of diseases of the lower urinary tract. HAUB patients appeared to develop microcirculatory disorders in the wall of the bladder manifest as slow circulation resulting in detrusor hyperactivity responsible for HAUB symptoms. HAUB development is accompanied with urodynamic disorders - enhancement of detrusor contractility and that of urethral sphincter with growing amplitude of their electric activity leading to potentiation of bladder evacuatory ability. Different conservative treatments were evaluated for their influence on urodynamics and microcirculation in females with HAUB.

The Micturition Reflex
The process begins with bladder filling, where the bladder wall stretches as urine accumulates. This stretching activates the urine storage reflex, mediated by the sacral spinal segments and the pontine storage center. Efferent sympathetic impulses stimulate the detrusor muscle to relax and the internal urethral sphincter to contract, facilitating urine...
Urinary Bladder
In males, the bladder is situated in front of the rectum, while in females, it is positioned anterior to the vagina and uterus. The bladder floor contains an inverted triangular area called the trigone, defined by the two ureteric...
