Zap to stop accidents? new hope for spinal injury bowel woes

NCT ID NCT05626816

Summary

This study is testing if a gentle, non-invasive electrical stimulation on a genital nerve can help improve bowel control for people living with a spinal cord injury. Researchers will measure how the rectum and anus work with and without the stimulation in 52 participants to see if it reduces fecal incontinence. The goal is to find a new, non-drug option to manage this life-limiting complication.
