Summary

Severe traumatic brain injury (TCI), defined by an initial GCS of ≤ 8 and/or admitted to a neurosurgical intensive care unit, are responsible for diffuse brain lesions that can lead to multiple deficits, including impairment of sphincter functions: bladder, rectal and sexual.

Bladder-sphincter disorders are very common after a TBI. Urinary incontinence predominates, with a prevalence varying from 50 to 100% in the acute period following a TBI.

The variability of the clinical data is explained by the heterogeneity of the populations studied (severity of TBI, duration of coma, time to care) and the tools used to objectify sphincter disorders. The interest of this study is to make an evaluation and a prospective follow-up of sphincter disorders in this population during one year.
