Clinical Trial Summary

If patients are unable to have their foley catheter removed because their bladder is not emptying well, they may be eligible for study participation. This study is designed to evaluate whether Posterior Tibial Nerve Stimulation is effective in improving bladdder function after surgery. Study participation is limited to one day.


Clinical Trial Description

If patients fail a voiding trial (the test done to see if a foley catheter is ready to be removed after surgery), they may be offered participation in this trial. Patients are randomized to receive active treatment or a sham treatment. A small, accupuncture-type needle is inserted through the skin just above the ankle. A small, battery-powered generator will be attached to the needle. The generator will give a low-voltabe stimulation which is adjusted for comfort level and applied for 30 minutes. After treatemnt, the voiding trial will be repeated. ;
