Sacral Nerve Stimulator

A sacral nerve stimulator is a type of electrostimulation therapy that delivers low-amplitude electrical stimulation to the sacral nerve, which is located in the lower back. This therapy is used to treat a variety of conditions related to bladder and bowel control, including overactive bladder, urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, and other pelvic floor disorders. By stimulating the sacral nerve, the device helps regulate the signals between the brain and the muscles responsible for bladder and bowel function. At Revere Health, we offer sacral nerve stimulation as a minimally invasive option for patients seeking relief from these conditions.

How Sacral Nerve Stimulation Works
Implantation: A small device, similar to a pacemaker, is surgically implanted under the skin, usually near the buttocks. A thin wire connects the device to the sacral nerve.
Electrical Stimulation: The stimulator sends mild electrical pulses to the sacral nerve, helping to regulate the signals that control bladder and bowel movements.
Adjustable Settings: The stimulation level can be adjusted by the patient or physician to optimize comfort and effectiveness.

Conditions Treated by Sacral Nerve Stimulation
Overactive Bladder: Helps reduce symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and urge incontinence.
Urinary Retention: Can aid in improving bladder emptying for individuals with difficulty urinating.
Fecal Incontinence: Effective for managing bowel control in patients who experience leakage or loss of control.
Pelvic Floor Disorders: Helps treat pelvic floor dysfunctions related to nerve signaling issues.

Benefits of Sacral Nerve Stimulation
Minimally Invasive: The procedure involves a small incision and is less invasive than traditional surgeries.
Effective: Many patients experience significant improvement in symptoms, with long-term relief from bladder and bowel control issues.
Adjustable Therapy: The stimulation can be tailored to each patient’s specific needs and adjusted as necessary.
Improved Quality of Life: Reducing symptoms of incontinence or pelvic floor disorders helps patients regain confidence and improve daily function.
