Participant Flow

Only spinal cord injured (SCI) patients using intermittent catheterization or reflex voiding with upper motor neuron injuries participated in this study. Three SCI male patients were enrolled and no adverse events occurred.

Measure
Experimental Group
Use a vibrator on the patient's bottom to determine if it will induce a bladder contraction; or use a dilator of the anus to determine if urethral relaxation will occur Vibrator: A vibrator will be applied to the patient's bottom to determine if it will induce a bladder contraction Anal dilator: A balloon will be used for anal dilation to determine if it will result in relaxation of the pelvic floor and urethral sphincter A single urodynamic testing protocol was conducted for each patient. Techniques included urodynamic catheters, perineum vibration, and anal dilation with a balloon dilator. Responses of the bladder and the external urethral and anal sphincters were recorded
