Urination is controlled by a complex central nervous system mechanism that coordinates urine storage and release by the regulation of smooth muscle in the bladder and urethra. Bladder storage, emptying and coordinated urinary sphincter activity , are controlled by the sympathetic, parasympathetic, and somatic nervous systems. Parasympathetic nerves in the spinal cord (S2-S4) act to contract the bladder and relax the urethra through the release of acetylcholine, which excites smooth muscle muscarinic

Discussion: The investigation was to determine how an ingested substance can affect urine volume and colour. The volume graph clearly indicates the average volume of urine was highest for participants who consumed water, followed by the electrolyte drink, chips and control who did not consume anything. Each colour graph shows the frequency of urine colour for each group. Colour charts were used to measure the colour of urine, one being the lightest or most dilute and five the darkest or most concentrated

Overactive Bladder, Child Overactive bladder is a group of urinary symptoms. Your child may suddenly feel the need to pass urine (urinate) right away. Your child might also leak urine after feeling this sudden urge if he or she cannot get to the bathroom fast enough (urinary incontinence). Leaking urine is not always unusual for children. Many young children leak urine during the day or at night. Children usually develop better bladder control by age 6 or 7. However, sometimes these symptoms interfere

Year 11 Biology Physiology: The Human Excretory System Claire Brus   Abstract The aim of the practical was to observe the body’s reactions (flow of urination and colour of urination) in the presence of water, caffeine and no liquid during the important stage of reabsorption. Introduction Background Theory ‘The excretory system is a passive biological system that removes excess, unnecessary materials from an organism, so as to help maintain homeostasis within the organism and prevent damage to the

My diagnosis for Eleanor is pelvic floor dysfunction. The symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction are constipation, frequent urination, pain during urination, and lower back pain. Pelvic floor dysfunction is common in women. (Faubion et al., 2012). It may be caused by aging and childbirth. (Wang et al., 2012). Eleanor is an 88 year old woman. She is also a mother of two, which means that she has given birth at least once. These factors may have contributed to her condition. Eleanor has difficulties

Incontienence in elderlies is mainly cause by the decrease strength of bladder tissue. Study has found that “Aging results in some common bladder changes, such as decrease bladder capacity and bladder elasticity, increased spontaneous detrusor contractions, and decreased ability to postpone micturition, causing more frequent voiding” ( scemons, pg54 2013). Although many elderly experience UI, some particular groups are more at risk than others. First UI is “more common in people living in nursing

The Women’s guide to Urinary Incontinence Urinary Incontinence, which occurs in women twice as often as it does in men, describes a case of involuntary urination. Put simply, a person experiences accidental leakage of urine often causing discomfort and embarrassment. The higher prevalence of this condition in women can be attributed to the structure of the female urinary tract system as well as pregnancy and childbirth. Whilst incontinence can be temporary and occur as a result of a poor diet, medication
