title: Using transrectal sonography to teach patients with spinal cord injuries to retrain their bladders.
abstract: When patients who have spinal cord injuries perform the Crede maneuver, the bladder neck tends to close. We suggest that these patients watch a video monitor during transrectal sonography and learn to tap the bladder appropriately, which allows voiding to occur with little increase in bladder pressure.
