Official Title: Ambulatory Closed-loop Stimulation to Inhibit Neurogenic Bladder Over-activity

Brief Summary: Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) develop neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO), resulting in urinary incontinence, decreased bladder capacity, and reduced quality of life.Current treatments incompletely address the problem and have unwanted side effects.Therefore, an alternative approach is needed.Electrical stimulation of the genital nerves (GNS) can inhibit NDO, improving bladder capacity and urinary continence.However, an automated closed-loop bladder feedback system, which currently does not exist,…
