PNS_UDT Trial Summary

This trial will test if acute pudendal nerve stimulation (PNS) can help relieve stress urinary incontinence (SUI) by measuring changes in stress-induced urethral Leak Point Pressures (LPP) before and after the treatment.

PNS_UDT Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Urodynamic testing with and without pudendal nerve stimulationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The neuromodulation settings of the implanted device will be adjusted to deliver acute simulation. Urodynamic testing (UDT) will be completed by filling the bladder and observing for urinary leakage. The assessment will be completed with the stimulation sets turned off and then turned on. At the end of the UDT the settings will be returned to the previously set therapeutic values. The neuromodulation settings constitute the "dose" and can include the voltage/current amplitude, frequency, pulse width, on time/off time duration and electrode polarity assignments. These parameters are limited by the available ranges of the approved neurostimulation device and will be adjusted during the study by the principal investigator to stay within the safe and comfortable levels for each individual study subject.
