Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study is a retrospective chart review including all patients who received surgical placement of a SNM device with Dr. Noblett from 2001 to the present.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Retrospective chart review

Detailed Description

The following data will be collected from patient charts: age at time of surgery, gravidity/parity, body mass index, pre-existing medical conditions/surgical history, current medications, menopausal status, form and severity of OAB symptoms, other previously or currently used interventions, method of SNM device placement, observed motor/sensory response, percent improvement of symptoms, follow-up OAB symptoms, frequency of InterStim settings adjustments, adverse events, significant changes in health, and incidence/reason for drop out.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
SNM device placement

Patients who have undergone a placement of a SNM device to treat refractory OAB. A retrospective chart review will be performed on all patients who underwent a one or two-stage placement of an SNM device, which includes an implantable pulse generator (IPG), for refractory urge incontinence and urgency frequency symptoms. The patients will be those of Dr. Karen Noblett, having their device placed after 2001.

Other: Retrospective chart review
This study is a retrospective chart review including all patients who received surgical placement of a SNM device with Dr. Noblett from 2001 to the present. The following data will be collected from patient charts: age at time of surgery, gravidity/parity, body mass index, pre-existing medical conditions/surgical history, current medications, menopausal status, form and severity of OAB symptoms, other previously or currently used interventions, method of SNM device placement, observed motor/sensory response, percent improvement of symptoms, follow-up OAB symptoms, frequency of InterStim settings adjustments, adverse events, significant changes in health, and incidence/reason for drop out.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Prevalence of combined therapy - determine the nmbr of pts on anticholinergic medication to treat symptoms of OAB after placement of SNM device, examine outcomes and defining characteristics of these pts compared to those not receiving anticholinergics. [Retrospective chart review]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Predictors of SNM therapy success - collect data factors; previously trialed conservative therapies, age, and severity of urinary symptoms, and examine for a correlation with urinary symptom resolution with either SNM therapy or combined therapy. [Retrospective chart review]
