Neurophysiology Flashcards
Whta is the role of the bladder
Storage and explosion of urine
The functions of the bladder rely on coordination off what
Somatic innervation
Autonomic Innervation
Reflex Pathways
Modulation of Central Voluntary control
What does the sympathetic pathway do
Bladder relaxation of the T11-L2 Hypogastric nerves
What does the parasympathetic pathway do
Bladder contraction of the S2-S4 Pelvic Nerves
What does the somatic pathway do
Contraction of the pelvic muscles from the pudendal nerve
What activates the cholinergic pathway
ACH
What activates the adrenergic pathway
NE
The cholinergic pathway does what function
Contraction of the bladder
The Beta 3 receptors perform what function
Relaxation of the bladder
Low frequency of neural firing cases what action
Urine Storage
High frequency of neural firing causes what action
Bladder emptying
The pontine Micturition reflex is responsible for what
Storage and emptying of urine
The micturition reflex does what
Bladder Contraction and Uretha relaxation
The guarding reflex does what
Bladder relaxation and urethra contraction
Voluntary control occurs where
