Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To evaluate the effect of non-invasive parasacral neuromodulation on behavior on neurogenic bladder and bowel in children with myelomeningocele, through the comparison of voiding diary, urodynamic examination, ultrasonography of the urinary tract and uroculture before and after intervention.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To evaluate the voiding behavior of the patients by comparing the pre and post-intervention voiding diary.;To evaluate the evacuation behavior of the patients by comparing the pre and post-intervention diary.;To compare the effects of neuromodulation with the frequency 4Hz and 10Hz, through the results of the exams performed (urodynamics, ultrasound of the urinary tract and uroculture) after the intervention and compare them with the results prior to the intervention.;Analyze the quality of life of the children by comparing the quality of life questionnaire (PedsQL) before and after intervention.
