Electrical stimulation for bladder control after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a non-invasive treatment using mild electrical pulses on the skin to help improve bladder control in women who have had a stroke and now experience overactive bladder symptoms. It may help reduce sudden urges to urinate.
