Detrusor hyperreflexia (DH) is a frequently. occurring condition. The symptomatology is characterized. by frequency, urgency and urge incontinence. DH is de-. fined as involuntary, uninhibited detrusor contractions. The physiology and pathophysiology of the micturition. reflex is reviewed. The balance between cerebral stimu-. lation and supraspinal inhibition is discussed. DH is. caused by disturbances in this balance.
A flexor reflex, which is also called a withdrawal reflex, is a multisynaptic reflex. It is a type of protective reflex where a painful stimulus triggers the contraction of flexor muscles. These reflexes have a slower onset and a longer response than the stretch (extensor) reflexes. A flexor reflex requires the contraction of a flexor muscle and relaxation of the extensor muscle in that limb. A good example of a flexor reflex is when you touch your forearm to the side of a hot oven.
