Autonomic dysfunction is a major and poorly understood consequence
of spinal cord injury. It is a cause of very serious disability and
requires much more research. It should be a focus of treatment
strategies. This book will be of interest to anyone involved in
research and treatment of spinal cord injury since it helps to
explain the tremendously negative impact on the body caused by cord
injury that is not as obvious as paralysis and loss of sensation.
It contains a compilation of what is known about bladder,
cardiovascular, bowel and sexual dysfunction after spinal cord
injury, as it relates to the changes within the autonomic nervous
system control of these functions.
The book begins with a description of the time course of autonomic
dysfunctions and their ramifications from the first hours after a
spinal cord injury to the more stable chronic states. The next
section contains three chapters that address anatomical findings
that may provide some of the foundation for autonomic dysfunctions
in many of the systems. The system-specific chapters then follow in
four sections. Each section begins with a chapter or two defining
the clinical problems experienced by people with cord injury. The
following chapters present research, basic and clinical, that
address the autonomic dysfunctions.
