Micturition is the process of emptying the urinary bladder. It involves two main steps - first the bladder fills until tension triggers the micturition reflex, which empties the bladder. This reflex can be inhibited or facilitated by the brain. The bladder is composed of a body that collects urine and a neck that connects to the urethra. Urine flows from the kidneys to the bladder via ureters. Stretch receptors in the bladder wall trigger the micturition reflex when the bladder is full, causing the bladder to contract and the sphincter to relax, allowing urination. The brain can override this reflex to control urination.

2. Micturition Micturition is the process by which the urinary bladder
empties when it becomes filled.
This involves two main steps:
First, the bladder fills progressively until the tension
in its walls rises above a threshold level;
this elicits the second step, which is a nervous reflex
called the micturition reflex that empties the bladder
or, if this fails, at least causes a conscious desire to
urinate.
Although the micturition reflex is an autonomic spinal
cord reflex, it can also be inhibited or facilitated by
centers in the cerebral cortex or brain stem.

4. Physiologic Anatomy The urinary bladder is a smooth muscle chamber
composed of two main parts:
(1) the body, which is the major part of the bladder
in which urine collects, and
(2) the neck, which is a funnel-shaped extension of
the body, passing inferiorly and anteriorly into the
urogenital triangle and connecting with the urethra.
The smooth muscle of the bladder is called the
detrusor muscle - contraction of the detrusor
muscle is a major step in emptying the bladder
6. Transport of Urine Urine flowing from the collecting ducts into the renal calyces stretches the
calyces and increases their intrinsic pacemaker activity,
which in turn initiates peristaltic contractions that spread to the renal pelvis
and then downward along the length of the ureter
peristaltic contractions in the ureter are enhanced by parasympathetic
stimulation and
inhibited by sympathetic stimulation
7. The normal tone of the detrusor muscle in the
bladder wall have a tendency to compress the
ureter,
thereby preventing backflow of urine from the
bladder when pressure builds up in the bladder
during micturition or bladder compression
Vesicoureteral reflux – enlargement of the
ureters - can increase the pressure in the renal
calyces and structures of the renal medulla,
causing damage - hydronephrosis
8. The Cystometrogram
When there is no urine in the bladder, the intravesicular
pressure is about 0,
but by the time 30 to 50 milliliters of urine has collected,
the pressure rises to 5 to 10 centimeters of water.
Additional urine — 200 to 300 milliliters — can collect
with only a small additional rise in pressure; this constant
level of pressure is caused by intrinsic tone of the
bladder wall.
Beyond 300 to 400 milliliters, collection of more urine in
the bladder causes the pressure to rise rapidly.
9.
10. Micturition Reflex
micturition contractions are the result of a stretch reflex
initiated by sensory stretch receptors in the bladder wall,
Especially by the receptors in the posterior urethra when
this area begins to fill with urine at the higher bladder
pressures.
Sensory signals from the bladder stretch receptors are
conducted to the sacral segments of the cord through the
pelvic nerves
and then reflexively back again to the bladder through
the parasympathetic nerve fibers by way of these same
nerves.
11.
12. Once the micturition reflex becomes powerful
enough, it causes another reflex, which passes
through the pudendal nerves to the external
sphincter to inhibit it.
If this inhibition is more potent in the brain
than the voluntary constrictor signals to the
external sphincter, urination will occur.
If not, urination will not occur until the
bladder fills still further and the micturition
reflex becomes more powerful.
13. Role of the Brain
1. The higher centers keep the micturition reflex
partially inhibited, except when micturition is
desired.
2. The higher centers can prevent micturition, even
if the micturition reflex occurs, by continual tonic
contraction of the external bladder sphincter until a
convenient time presents itself.
3. When it is time to urinate, the cortical centers can
facilitate the sacral micturition centers to help
initiate a micturition reflex
and at the same time inhibit the external urinary
sphincter so that urination can occur.
14. Voluntary urination
First, a person voluntarily contracts his or her
abdominal muscles, which increases the pressure in the
bladder
and allows extra urine to enter the bladder neck and
posterior urethra under pressure, thus stretching their
walls.
This stimulates the stretch receptors, which excites
the micturition reflex and simultaneously inhibits the
external urethral sphincter.
Ordinarily, all the urine will be emptied, with rarely
more than 5 to 10 milliliters left in the bladder.
15. Abnormalities of Micturition
Atonic Bladder Caused by Destruction of Sensory
Nerve Fibers - preventing transmission of stretch signals
from the bladder.
person loses bladder control, despite intact efferent
fibers from the cord to the bladder and despite intact
neurogenic connections within the brain.
Instead of emptying periodically, the bladder fills to
capacity and overflows a few drops at a time through
the urethra - overflow incontinence.
