Summary

This study tests a device called Tensi+ that uses mild electrical pulses to a nerve in the ankle to treat overactive bladder symptoms like sudden urges and frequent bathroom trips. About 60 adults with these symptoms will use the device at home for 12 weeks. The goal is to see if it safely reduces urgency and number of daily urinations.
