Subcutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation for Urgency Urinary Incontinence
The study is a single arm, prospective study of the safety and effectiveness of the Valencia
Technologies eCoin System to stimulate the tibial nerve for the treatment of patients with
refractory urgency urinary incontinence.
Technologies eCoin System to stimulate the tibial nerve for the treatment of patients with
refractory urgency urinary incontinence.
This trial is a single arm, prospective study of the safety and effectiveness of eCoin tibial
nerve stimulation in 25 subjects with refractory overactive bladder as defined by the
American Urological Association.. The eCoin neuromodulation device will be implanted
subcutaneously in the right or left leg of patients with urgency urinary incontinence. After
a 4 week implant healing period, subjects will have their devices activated (turned ON).
After 3 months of device therapy (occurring 4 months post-implant), the primary endpoint will
be assessed. It is anticipated that subjects will reach the full therapeutic effect at
approximately 3 months of therapy. Subjects will be followed for an additional 9 months to
assess the safety of maintenance stimulation therapy with fewer sessions occurring during
this time interval.
