As urge and urgency contribute greatly to a patient's symptoms, it follows that sensory evaluation combined with noninvasive neuromodulation during urodynamics may provide new criteria for improving patient selection for an implantable stimulator. The purpose of this research was to develop and validate an objective measure of bladder sensations during filling cystometry and then to apply this technique to evaluate the effects of neuromodulation on the sensations of urge measured in this way.

Urinary urgency is a key symptom of overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) and may be more
bothersome to a patient than the symptom of urinary frequency. Unfortunately, controversy… Expand
