Urgent ® PC Clinical Data
There are numerous publications highlighting the use of percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) in the treatment of urinary urgency, urinary frequency, urge incontinence and faecal incontinence.
The Urgent PC Neuromodulation System is the only system available to provide PTNS treatment. The device technology and treatment protocol are founded on the SANS device (Stoller's Afferent Nerve Stimulator).
The following abstracts are listed by publication year with the most recent listed first.
