Urodynamic Testing With and Without Pudendal Nerve Stimulation
A urodynamic test (UDT) for eligible subjects with and without acute PNS will be conducted. Prior to introducing the acute PNS, the subject's original stimulation properties will be turned off. The implanted neurostimulator device will be programmed to deliver acute PNS per individual tolerance level with the objective of increasing external urethral sphincter pressure. UDT will be completed by filling the bladder and observing for urinary leakage. The LPP during Valsalva maneuver or forceful coughing will be assessed with and without acute PNS. The LPP will be assessed at increasing bladder volumes until major detrusor instability, significant leakage (more than drops, stream) or subject discomfort (strong desire to void) is observed. Finally, a UPP with PNS set in an on/off cycling regimen will be conducted to observe the effect on pressures along the length of the urethra.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: After Visit 2 activities are complete. An average of 30 days after enrollment.

Population: Two participants did not complete.

Measure the maximum urethral closure pressure with and without programmed pudendal nerve stimulation. In cm water. Urethral pressure profile is a test of the bladder neck, urethra, and urethral sphincters that is completed with urodynamic equipment. A small catheter is pulled at a constant rate from the bladder neck down the urethra to provide the functional length of the urethra and points of maximal urethral resistance at the urethral sphincter. It is a procedure used to measure the competency of the urethral sphincter (outflow resistance).
