Tests treatment safety and results for Overactive Bladder (OAB)
Official title INOPASE - Performance and Safety Study of a Personalised SNM System
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07193407
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a new sacral neuromodulation (SNM) system (INO-SNM-01) can safely and effectively sense bladder nerve activity and provide stimulation to help manage symptoms of refractory overactive bladder in adult women aged 18-70 who have not responded to standard treatments. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is there a clear relationship between bladder nerve activity and patient-reported urgency sensations?
