Frequent urination and urinary incontinence significantly affect the quality of life. The first step in the treatment of urinary incontinence includes lifestyle changes and medication. This treatment method is the stimulation of the nerves going to the bladder with the help of a battery named sacral neuromodulation. Just like pacemakers, batteries used for urinary incontinence in urology stimulate the nerves of the bladder and prevent urinary incontinence. Similarly, in patients who cannot urinate, it stimulates the nerves of the urinary bladder, allowing the patient to urinate spontaneously.
This method has started to be used more frequently with the addition of new technologies to the battery in recent years, and it is very beneficial for patients. With this training, the "Sacral Neuromodulation" application started in Ankara City Hospital.
