Is Our Limited Understanding of the Effects of Nerve Stimulation Resulting in Poor Outcomes and the Need for Better “Rescue Programming” in SNM and PTNS, and Lost Opportunities for New Sites of Stimulation? ICI‐RS 2024

Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) and percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) are strongly recommended by international guidelines bodies for complex lower urinary tract dysfunctions. However, treatment failure and the need for rescue programming still represent a significant need for long-term follow-up. This review aimed to describe current strategies and future directions in patients undergoing such therapies.
