[Achieving urinary continence].

J M Buzelin, O Bouchot, P Glemain

    La Revue Du Praticien

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Urinary continence develops through nervous system maturation, integrating reflexes from the fetal stage to childhood. Voluntary control emerges as children learn to sense bladder fullness and manage sphincter and bladder functions.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Developmental Biology
    • Urology

    Context:

    • Urinary continence is crucial for human comfort and species survival.
    • Its development is intrinsically linked to the maturation of the nervous system.
    • Understanding this process is key to addressing continence disorders.

    Purpose:

    • To elucidate the neurodevelopmental stages underlying urinary continence.
    • To describe the integration of the micturitional reflex.
    • To explain the emergence of voluntary control over bladder function.

    Summary:

    • Urinary continence development involves the organization of vesico-sphincteric automatism, progressing through fetal, newborn, and childhood stages.
    • The micturitional reflex is integrated sequentially in ganglionic plexuses, sacral spinal cord, and pontine centers.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Voluntary control is achieved through sensing bladder fullness, controlling the striated sphincter, and initiating/inhibiting bladder contractions.

    • Impact:

    • Provides insights into the neurobiological basis of bladder control.
    • Highlights the variability in continence development and the role of training.
    • Informs clinical approaches to pediatric continence issues and related psychological vulnerabilities.
