Registration Number
NCT05895981
Lead Sponsor
Xijing Hospital
Brief Summary

Although the incidence of inflammatory bowel disease is stable in North American and European countries, the incidence of inflammatory bowel disease is increasing in newly industrialized countries, especially in China. The treatment drugs for ulcerative colitis include 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, and biological agents.

The aim of this exploratory Clinical Trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sacral nerve stimulation in patients with ulcerative colitis.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change from baseline in the Mayo score at week 1212 weeks

Mayo score at 12 week minus the Mayo score at baseline. The range of Mayo score is 0-12, and higher scores mean worse outcome.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod

overall score ≤2 \[and no individual subscore \>1\]

Change from baseline in the Mayo score at week 24, and 5224 and 52 weeks
