Consensus update on the therapeutic approach to patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity
Introduction And Objectives:
A Consensus document on the management of patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) was published in 2018. The present document aims to update its recommendations regarding treatment considering the new evidence available, and to contribute to the standardization of the management of this disorder.
Methods:
The methodology used was based on a systematic review and the Nominal Group Technique. The clinical coordinator (CC) and the Consensus update group (CUG) defined the questions to be updated and carried out a systematic review to identify the new available evidence. After being evaluated by the expert panel, the relevant recommendations were updated and agreed in a consensus meeting.
Results:
A total of 3210 publications were identified and 26 publications that met the inclusion criteria were included. The CUG updated 18 recommendations on the therapeutic approach to NDO. Unanimous consensus was reached on all of them.
Conclusions:
Previous recommendations need to be revised due to the availability of new drugs, the increasing evidence on the use of botulinum toxin or neuromodulation procedures, and new surgical options.

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...
