General Details:

Name:: Bladder function bladder sensation type
Steward:: NINDS
Definition:: Documents the bladder sensation during filling cystometry. Although the bladder sensation is assessed during filling cystometry the assumption that it is sensation from the bladder alone, without urethral or pelvic components may be false (Abrams et al. 2002). Normal bladder sensation can be judged by three defined points noted during filling cystometry and evaluated in relation to the bladder volume at that moment and in relation to the patient's symptomatic complaints.
