Urgent^® PC Neuromodulation System

For Urinary Disorders and Faecal Incontinence

The Urgent PC System is an effective, outpatient method for treating urinary urgency, urinary frequency and urge incontinence.  It is also used to treat faecal incontinence. 

Simple Procedure

• Provides percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation: a slim needle electrode, inserted near the tibial nerve, carries electric impulses from a hand-held stimulator to the sacral plexus
• 30-minute treatment sessions
• After the 12 initial treatments, an individualised maintenance therapy is continued, using the maximum interval between sessions that maintains symptom relief
• Most common side-effects include transient mild pain or skin inflammation at or near the stimulation site

In the Treatment of Urinary Symptoms

• Patient response rates of up to 80% (see chart)
• Provides outcomes similar to the leading OAB drug
• Documented reductions in daytime voiding frequency, nighttime voiding frequency and leakage episodes
• Results maintained at a three year mean follow-up when initial series was followed by maintenance therapy
• In a double-blind placebo study, 75% of patients responded (defined as >50% reduction in voids per day) to treatment with Urgent PC. According to these criteria, no patients in the placebo group were considered responders.

In the Treatment of Faecal Incontinence

• 78% of patients achieved a long-term improvement in faecal incontinence.
