Posterior Tibial Transcutaneous Neurostimulation in Idiopathic Overactive Bladder
- Conditions
- Overactive Bladder
- Interventions
- Other: Survey
- Registration Number
- NCT06484023
- Lead Sponsor
- Hopital Nord Franche-Comte
- Brief Summary
Overactive bladder is a clinical diagnosis affecting up to 17% of women. The existing medical treatment, anticholinergics, has many side effects and is sometimes ineffective. Neurostimulation of the posterior tibial nerve is a validated 3rd-line therapy, after failure of perineal re-education and medication. Studies on TENS have shown a real impact on patients quality of life and encourage its use in routine clinical practice. TENSI+ medical device is a treatment for overactive bladder. It is non-invasive, placed over the posterior tibial nerve pathway and sends electrical stimulation via electrodes located on the skin. Discreet and without side effects for users, this treatment is indicated as 3rd-line treatment for people suffering from idiopathic overactive bladder with no contraindications. The aim of this study is to assess the quality of life of patients using this device, both before use and after at least 3 months of use.
