There are several modalities for treating neurogenic bowel dysfunction (NBD), including conservative treatments (diet, medications, biofeedback, transanal irrigation, massage, electrical stimulation, anal plug). When conservative treatments fail, clinicians can choose from a variety of therapeutic options, including colostomies, Malone anterograde continence enemas, sacral anterior root stimulator implantations, graciloplasties, and artificial bowel sphincters. We reviewed the various treatments for constipation and/or fecal incontinence in patients with NBD and propose over-reaching stepwise algorithms for the management of NBD. Our review included English language articles, randomized controlled studies, cohort studies, case-control studies, and retrospective studies (if necessary) that assessed the management of NBD. Our literature search identified 577 articles, of which 79 met our inclusion criteria. There is little evidence for the success of conservative but non-pharmacological treatments. There is strong evidence for the success of pharmacological interventions (i.e., prokinetic agents) in the treatment of chronic constipation. While surgical interventions may be considered, there is little evidence of their effectiveness. Bowel management programs for patients with neurologic diseases require a multi-faceted approach. While a range of medical and surgical treatments are available, there is little evidence for their effectiveness, with the exception of pharmacological interventions.  (+info)

Neurogenic bowel is a term used to describe disturbances in bowel function due to damage to the nervous system. This can result from conditions such as spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, or stroke. The damage can affect the nerves that control the muscles responsible for bowel movements, leading to symptoms like constipation, fecal incontinence, or both. Treatment often involves a combination of dietary modifications, medication, and biofeedback therapy.

Neurogenic bladder is a term used to describe bladder dysfunction due to neurological damage or disease. The condition can result in problems with bladder storage and emptying, leading to symptoms such as urinary frequency, urgency, hesitancy, incontinence, and retention.

Neurogenic bladder can occur due to various medical conditions, including spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, diabetic neuropathy, and stroke. The damage to the nerves that control bladder function can result in overactivity or underactivity of the bladder muscle, leading to urinary symptoms.

Management of neurogenic bladder typically involves a multidisciplinary approach, including medications, bladder training, catheterization, and surgery in some cases. The specific treatment plan depends on the underlying cause of the condition and the severity of the symptoms.

Spinal cord injuries (SCI) refer to damage to the spinal cord that results in a loss of function, such as mobility or feeling. This injury can be caused by direct trauma to the spine or by indirect damage resulting from disease or degeneration of surrounding bones, tissues, or blood vessels. The location and severity of the injury on the spinal cord will determine which parts of the body are affected and to what extent.

The effects of SCI can range from mild sensory changes to severe paralysis, including loss of motor function, autonomic dysfunction, and possible changes in sensation, strength, and reflexes below the level of injury. These injuries are typically classified as complete or incomplete, depending on whether there is any remaining function below the level of injury.

Immediate medical attention is crucial for spinal cord injuries to prevent further damage and improve the chances of recovery. Treatment usually involves immobilization of the spine, medications to reduce swelling and pressure, surgery to stabilize the spine, and rehabilitation to help regain lost function. Despite advances in treatment, SCI can have a significant impact on a person's quality of life and ability to perform daily activities.
