The role of the neurometer CPT/C in sacral neuromodulation

Abstract

Objective: The aim of the current research project was to study the role of the Neurometer ® as a tool to predict responders to sacral neuromodulation therapy (SNM). Material and methods:This was a prospective, open study in male and female patients, aged 18 and over with voiding dysfunction [non-obstructive retention and/or frequency/ urgency syndrome]. The first group underwent a screening test to evaluate percutaneous nerve functions (PNE) and to determine whether they are candidates for SNM with the InterStim ®
