Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) on Neurogenic Overactive Bladder in Stroke

A Mixed-methods Evaluation of the Clinical and Cost-effectiveness of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) on Neurogenic Overactive Bladder in Stroke

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 3 May 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Neurogenic overactive bladder (NOAB) presents with urgency incontinence. Existing NOAB management is expensive, lacks standardized regimens, or is invasive. Therefore, evaluating the effectiveness of non-invasive repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for NOAB management among stroke survivors remains crucial. Objectives: Evaluate the effects of active-rTMS compared to sham-rTMS among stroke survivors with NOAB, the interventions' cost-effectiveness and explore their experiences qualitatively.
