Summary

This study tested a small implantable device that stimulates the tibial nerve to treat overactive bladder. 188 adults with urge incontinence who had not improved with other treatments received the implant. The main goal was to see if at least half of participants had a 50% or greater reduction in daily leakage episodes after 6 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Medtronic Implantable Tibial Neuromodulation (TNM) System
What this could lead to
If successful, this device could offer a long-term, implantable option for people with overactive bladder who haven't improved with other treatments.
What could go wrong
This is a completed pivotal study, but results may not apply to everyone. Risks include surgical implantation, device malfunction, or lack of symptom relief.
