Understanding Micturition Mechanics by Hanako Sasaki Aranilla is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The patient presenting with urinary incontinence (Patient 1) has a problem that is likely neurological in nature. Maintaining urinary continence requires complex neurological and physiological reflexes as well as intact cognition, mobility, and ability to perceive bladder fullness. In contrast, the patient pointing to the restroom (Patient 2) demonstrates an intact ability to perceive bladder fullness and access the appropriate facility, indicating his problem is less likely to be neurological.
