What is a Neurogenic Bladder?
A neurogenic bladder is one that is affected through the spinal nerves lacking sufficient inhibition from higher control centers in the brain and/or brainstem region. This can cause excessive spasticity flowing to the bladder creating small volumes and higher pressures with urgent and frequent voiding and subsequent incontinence. Frequently adults and children will be voiding every one to two hours with very little time to make it to the bathroom and frequent wetness with transfers. It is a correctable situation in most instances.
