Preety-

There is a great Practice Guideline listed in the sticky's of this forum that details the pathophysiology of autonomic dysreflexia and treating it. With the appropriate information, you should be able to manage most of these occurences. They do not always go as far as the one that you described your brother in law had, but it is a serious condition that you need to know how to handle. Take a look at the information and if you have any other questions, please, please ask!
