Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Prevalence of combined therapy - determine the nmbr of pts on anticholinergic medication to treat symptoms of OAB after placement of SNM device, examine outcomes and defining characteristics of these pts compared to those not receiving anticholinergics.	Retrospective chart review

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Predictors of SNM therapy success - collect data factors; previously trialed conservative therapies, age, and severity of urinary symptoms, and examine for a correlation with urinary symptom resolution with either SNM therapy or combined therapy.	Retrospective chart review
