A newly diagnosed paraplegic client who suffered an automobile accident appears to have control of bladder emptying
The health care provider explains this process to the client/family stating, "This function is allowing the motor component of the neural reflex to assist with bladder emptying and is primarily controlled by the:
A) Parasympathetic division of the ANS."
B) Sympathetic division of the ANS."
C) Somatic nervous system."
D) Hypogastric nervous system."
Ans: A
Feedback:
The motor component of the neural reflex to assist with bladder emptying is primarily controlled by the parasympathetic division of the ANS, and the relaxation and storage functions of the bladder are controlled by the sympathetic division. The somatic nervous system innervates the skeletal muscles of the external sphincter and the pelvic floor muscles that together control the outflow of urine. The afferent input from the bladder and urethra is carried to the CNS by fibers that travel with PS, somatic, and sympathetic (hypogastric) nerves.
