Urodynamic evaluation via water cystometry was undertaken in 27 patients from 12 to 120 days after cerebrovascular accidents. Seven patients had urinary symptoms--five with urge incontinence, one with frequency and one with sensation of incomplete bladder emptying. The remaining 20 were asymptomatic. Cystometry revealed normal bladder function in 15 patients (55.6%), detrusor areflexia in one patient (3.7%) and detrusor hyperreflexia in 11 patients (40.7%). Of the 11 patients with detrusor hyperreflexia, six (54.5%) were asymptomatic and the remaining five (45.5%) had urge incontinence. The former group had a statistically significant higher first sensation and functional cystometric capacity than the latter. Urge incontinence was also found to be an accurate predictor of detrusor hyperreflexia.

D002544 Cerebral Infarction The formation of an area of NECROSIS in the CEREBRUM caused by an insufficiency of arterial or venous blood flow. Infarcts of the cerebrum are generally classified by hemisphere (i.e., left vs. right), lobe (e.g., frontal lobe infarction), arterial distribution (e.g., INFARCTION, ANTERIOR CEREBRAL ARTERY), and etiology (e.g., embolic infarction).

D002561 Cerebrovascular Disorders A spectrum of pathological conditions of impaired blood flow in the brain. They can involve vessels (ARTERIES or VEINS) in the CEREBRUM, the CEREBELLUM, and the BRAIN STEM. Major categories include INTRACRANIAL ARTERIOVENOUS MALFORMATIONS; BRAIN ISCHEMIA; CEREBRAL HEMORRHAGE; and others.
