Summary

This clinical trial aims to assess the preliminary safety and efficacy of Epidural Electrical Stimulation (EES) therapy in managing lower urinary tract dysfunction in individuals with sub-acute or chronic spinal cord injury (SCI). The study evaluates the therapy's potential to improve urinary function and prevent neurogenic detrusor overactivity, ultimately seeking to enhance quality of life for individuals with SCI.

Conditions

  • Spinal Cord Injuries (SCI)
  • Spinal Cord Injury

Interventions

DEVICE

WaveWriter Alpha™ neurostimulation system

Two Boston Scientific WaveWriter Alpha™ Implantable Pulse Generators (IPGs) will be implanted and connected to CoverEdge™ or CoverEdge™ X 32 Surgical Paddle Leads. The leads are positioned to enable targeted stimulation of the spinal cord to optimize control of urinary functions.
