Background There has been some controversy regarding the efficacy of sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) for the treatment of chronic constipation, due to less positive outcomes and concerns about cost-effectiveness in the long term. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the long-term outcomes...
Purpose: Sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) is a potential treatment for constipation refractory to standard therapies. Uncontrolled studies have shown promise, however, there have been no randomized controlled studies of its efficacy. Aim: In patients with slow transit constipation ...
How to prepare for sacral nerve stimulation:Your healthcare provider will talk to you about how to prepare for each stage of this procedure. He or she may tell you not to eat or drink anything after midnight on the day of your procedure. He or she will tell you what medicines to take...
Within the past few years, sacral nerve stimulation has become a possible treatment option for selected patients with urinary retention, urinary incontinence, anal incontinence and constipation. The method is furthermore being tested for several other conditions.The article presents the method and ...
showed an immediate increase in pan-colonic propagating pressure waves in six patient who underwent sacral nerve root stimulation [22]. Among a group of 37 patients who underwent SNM for slow-transit constipation, whole gut transit time normalized in half of subjects [23]. Other trials have ...

Stimulation of the parasympathetic nerves via the sacral micturition centre travels in the pelvic nerve, resulting in contraction of the detrusor muscle and relaxation of the sphincter facilitating micturition. Different modalities of neuromodulation hav
Stimulation had no significant effect on colonic transit time. CONCLUSION: These results do not support the recommendation of permanent implantation of a pulse generator in patients with refractory constipation who initially responded to temporary nerve stimulation.
