What will happen to sacral reflexes if lose connection w brain?
|
Exaggerated sacral reflexes
|
|
Sympathetic NS
Parasympathetic NS |
in paravertebral chain gang & prevertebral gang
Near or in effector organ |
|
Pregang of Sympathetic NS release
Postgang of sympathetic NS release |
Ach on nicotinic receptors
NE on adrenergic receptors |
|
Pregang of Parasympathetic NS
Postgang of Parasympathetic NS |
Release Ach onto nicotinic cholinergic receptors
Release Ach onto muscarinic cholinergic receptors |
|
Somatic motor innervation
|
Pudendal nerve (Ach)
Bladder contraction to prevent micturition |
|
Parasympathetic innervation
|
pelvic nerve (Ach)
Detrusor m contracts, bladder empties |
|
Sympathetic innervation
|
NE released
Detrusor muscle will relax (bladder fills) |
|
Bladder fills and accommodates to increasing volume of urine with only slight inc. in pressure. As bladder walls become distended, pressure inc to micturition threshold
|
Filling phase
|
|
Detrusor m contracts vigorously and the muscles of the EUS and pelvic floor relax
|
Voiding phase
|
|
If can go to the bathroom now
|
Pontine Micturition facilitates reflex sending down signals to inhibit sympathetic pathway
|
|
If cannot go to the bathroom now
|
Pontine micturition center sends signals down to inhibit parasympathetic pathways
|
|
No reflex emptying of bladder
|
neurogenic bladder
|
|
If SC transected above lumbar region, spinal voiding reflex can still operate
|
Uninhibited neurogenic bladder
|
|
Occurs with sacral SC damage
|
Flaccid or atonic bladder
|
