摘要
Purpose: We assessed the urodynamic effect of various doses of intrathecal clonidine on refractory detrusor hyperreflexia in spinal cord injured patients. Materials and Methods: Doses of 15, 30 or 45 mu g. intrathecal clonidine or placebo were given to 5 chronic complete spinal cord injured patients with detrusor hyperreflexia. Two cystometries were performed before and 5, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 180 minutes after each injection. Results: A statistically significant dose dependent decrease in detrusor hyperreflexia was observed in each patient without significant side effect. Conclusions: Intrathecal clonidine may represent a conservative reversible treatment for detrusor hyperreflexia via a subcutaneous programmable pump, like that used for baclofen, for spasticity. The long-term efficacy needs to be evaluated.
