Summary

Each study subject will undergo baseline urodynamic testing (UDS) at the beginning of the study to confirm the diagnosis of a neurogenic bladder with DSD and establish baseline bladder functions. The study will be divided into two phases: a Treatment phase (16 weeks) and a Follow-up phase (6 weeks). During the treatment phase, each subject will undergo once/week magnetic spinal cord stimulation (MSCS) at 1Hz (low) frequency (40-60% intensity) over the lumbar spine. Once each subject entered the treatment phase of the study and will receive weekly lumbar spinal cord magnetic stimulation for a total of 16 weeks. This 16-week period of MSCS constituted bladder rehabilitation. Each subject will receive non-video urodynamic testing once every four weeks during the treatment phase to monitor progress and ensure that bladder function will not further impaired. After the initial four-week stimulation period, each subject will be asked to attempt volitional urination for 5-10minutes prior to bladder catheterization. the subjects will instruct to keep the environment quiet, relax and focus on voiding
