Autonomic dysreflexia (mass reflex reaction) |
|
Definition
-uncontrolled activiation of ANS motor nuerons
-affects people with spinal cord injuries above T6 levels
-when cord injury first happens there are no reflexes, but they return later and are exaggerated due to lack of inhibitory input from brain
-initial trigger causes mass activity of reflexes;body spasms, colon adn bladder empty, sweating, high BP
-exact mechanisms unknown |
