简要总结
The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy of an accelerated course for percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) induction to treat overactive bladder symptoms. The standard 12 weekly induction treatments may be a patient burden and a more rapid induction may speed up symptomatic improvement.
详细描述
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a common condition with a prevalence ranging from 5.9% to 16.9% in the United States and has been found to increase with age. OAB has a negative impact on health related quality of life (QoL), Per American Urological Association (AUA) / Society of Urodynamics, Female Pelvic Medicine and Urogenital Reconstruction (SUFU) guidelines, PTNS is a third line recommendation for OAB along with onabotulinumtoxinA (BTX) injection and sacral neuromodulation. In the single sham-controlled trial (SUmiT: n=220), Peters et al reported that 54.5% of PTNS subjects had moderately or markedly improved bladder symptoms on global response assessments (GRA) compared to 20.9% of sham subjects (p <0.001). PTNS subjects also had statistically significant improvements in frequency, nighttime voids, voids with moderate to severe urgency and urge urinary incontinence (UUI) episodes compared to sham. There is also early data from an implanted chronic tibial nerve stimulation lead study that shows a minimum of 8 hours of tibial nerve stimulation a day results in significant improvement in incontinence episodes per day at one week. Our study will test the concept of whether the PTNS effect is dose (total time of treatment) sensitive, and whether expanding the dosage of each treatment, i.e. from 30 minutes to 2 hours, will provide significant clinical improvement after a one week induction course.
