Q

Passive phase—filling

A

L1-4 (SNS)—hypogastric
Beta receptors in bladder are activated—allow stretching
Alpha 1 receptros are activated (trigone + prox urethra)
Block PSNS flow

Q

Active phase—voiding

A

Reflex: stretch receptors —> pelvic n. —> spinal cord —> brain stem —> PSNS outflow (S1-3)

Contraction of bladder wall—mm fibers contract
Pudental n is inhibited, dec urethral sphincter tone (can be over-ridden by cerebrum)
