Predictive Utility and Mechanisms of Sacral Evoked Responses in Sacral Neuromodulation
Sponsor: University of Michigan
Summary
Electrical stimulation of the sacral nerve can help with bladder problems and pelvic pain but researchers don't understand exactly how the stimulation helps. The goal of this study is to examine signals evoked during sacral neuromodulation (SNM or electrical stimulation of the sacral nerve) and their relationship to the selection of stimulation parameters that improve pelvic function symptoms. This study uses SNM parameters based on visual-motor responses (VMR) or sacral evoked responses (SER). It is investigating how the parameter selection impacts change in bladder function.
