Summary

This study tested whether a mild electrical stimulation device (TENS) placed on the ankle could help people with Parkinson's disease or a related condition who have bladder problems that don't improve with standard treatments. About 110 participants used the device daily for 20 minutes over 6 weeks. The main goal was to see if they felt their bladder symptoms had improved after 3 months.
