Abstract Purpose: Transcutaneous Posterior Tibial Nerve Stimulation (TPTNS) using adhesive skin electrodes is not commonly used due to its low efficacy. Our objective was to verify whether the combination of TPTNS with low dose Trospium chloride in the treatment of females with overactive bladder (OAB) would be more effective than TPTNS alone after failure of behavioral therapy. Materials and Methods: We randomized 30 women with OAB‚ into two groups‚ 15 patients each: Group I received 30 minutes

Weaver et al. (2012) examined the long-term outcomes of deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus interna (GPi) and subthalamic nucleus (STN) for patients with Parkinson disease who do not receive adequate relief from their symptoms with traditional Parkinson’s medications (Appendix E). Relevant findings established in this article included: hypothesis‚ study design‚ sample size‚ methods of data collection/analysis‚ and the findings of the study.
