This study attempts to define the reliability of ice-water test (IWT) in detecting the detrusor reflex in patients with chronic spinal cord lesion (SCL) and further explore its clinical application. 220 patients with SCL over a period of four years were included in this study. 105 of the patients were rated as the acute group with the injury less than six months. 115 patients with lesions over six months were grouped as the chronic one. All the patients underwent gas cystometrogram (CMG) and IWT within 48 hours. CMG revealed the presence of detrusor reflex. Comparing the results of CMG and …
