The effects of stroke are complex and diverse. Deficits experienced depend on the location of damage and vary in severity. Voiding problems resulting from a stroke include uninhibited neurogenic bladder, urgency and frequency, retention, urge incontinence, and overflow incontinence. Because a
We report the case of a 54-year-old hypertensive woman who presented with sudden onset left hemiparesis with facial asymmetry and inability to pass urine. Her bladder was distended and she had to be catheterised. MRI of her brain showed a large infarct in the right pontine region. Antiplatelet
BACKGROUND
Bladder dysfunction is common in stroke patients and it has a considerable impact on their lives. The objective of this study was to investigate the frequencies of urine storage and emptying disorders in hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke patients with persistent bladder
The bladder-emptying status of 85 stroke patients admitted to a comprehensive rehabilitation center was evaluated by postvoid residual (PVR) sequential catheterizations. Those patients with incomplete bladder emptying were assessed by scheduled PVRs throughout their hospitalization. Incomplete
To investigate the factors which influence the results of the ice-water test (IWT) in patients with cerebrovascular accidents or infravesical obstruction, IWT was performed on these patients with urge urinary incontinence. Thirty-two patients with cerebrovascular lesions (group 1) and 16 patients
BACKGROUND
Spontaneous bladder rupture is a rare and serious event with high mortality. It is not often considered in the patient presenting with peritonitis. This often leads to delays in diagnosis. There are very few case reports of true spontaneous rupture in the literature. This is the first
Clinical presentation of gall bladder carcinoma with distant metastasis is extremely rare. We report a 73-year-old lady who presented with right-sided hemiparesis. CT scan showed a left frontal lobe tumor. Excision of the tumor resulted in improvement of neurological functions. Further workup
OBJECTIVE
To elicit the experiences of patients with bladder problems following stroke in one dedicated stroke unit and to share these findings with the multidisciplinary stroke team.
METHODS
A structured questionnaire was completed by 40 inpatients who had an identified bladder problem, had had a
We describe a case of a 57-year-old man who, immediately after a right parietal ischemic stroke, showed urodynamically determined bladder sensory decrement during filling and an underactive detrusor during voiding, both of which were ameliorated during the course of his treatment. The lower urinary
The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of bladder volume measurements using a portable ultrasound machine to measurement by catheterization. For 13 consecutive weeks, all patients admitted to the stroke unit at Royal Perth Hospital were studied by both methods when urinary retention was
Catheterism of the urinary bladder in the primary therapy after stroke is often the initial condition for the development of an infected contracted bladder. The patient is bearing his catheter for life because there is a disproportion of production of urine (greater than 1500 ml) and capacity of the
OBJECTIVE
To identify factors associated with incomplete bladder emptying in older women with overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms.
METHODS
Retrospective medical records review.
METHODS
Urodynamic laboratory at a large academic health care system in the southeast United States.
METHODS
Medical records
OBJECTIVE
Surgical management for neurogenic bladder may require abandonment of the native urethra due to intractable urinary incontinence, irreparable urethral erosion, severe scarring from previous transurethral procedures, or urethrocutaneous fistula. In these patients, bladder neck closure (BNC)
