About Urinary incontinence due to detrusor overactivity.

Urinary incontinence due to detrusor overactivity is a form of lower urinary tract dysfunction characterized by the involuntary leakage of urine resulting from uninhibited contractions of the bladder's detrusor muscle during the filling phase.

This clinical state affects both men and women across various age groups, frequently presenting in older adults or individuals with underlying neurologic disorders such as spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis, or stroke.

Pathophysiologically, premature or exaggerated detrusor muscle activation generates intravesical pressures that overcome urethral closure resistance, producing sudden episodes of urgency accompanied by involuntary urinary loss.

The condition may be classified as neurogenic when linked to central nervous system lesions or idiopathic when no underlying neurological or obvious organic cause is identified.
