Change in UUI Episodes Per Day Primary · 3 months post-activation

The primary endpoint is to explore the effect of two different eCoin amplitude settings on the change of UUI episodes per day on a 3-day voiding diary. A negative number shows a reduction in UUI episodes per day which means symptoms have improved since baseline. A positive number shows an increase in UUI episodes per day which means symptoms have worsened since baseline.

Subsensory-2.73± 1.8
Change in UUI Episodes Per Day Secondary · 2 months post-activation

Change in the number of urgency urinary incontinence episodes per day on a 3-day voiding diary. A negative number shows a reduction in UUI episodes which means symptoms have improved since baseline. A positive number shows an increase in UUI episodes per day which means symptoms have worsened since baseline.

Change in UUI Episodes Per Day Secondary · 4 months post-activation

A secondary endpoint is to explore the change in UUI episodes per day on a 3-day voiding diary. A negative number shows a reduction in UUI episodes per day which means symptoms have improved since baseline. A positive number shows an increase in UUI episodes per day which means symptoms have worsened since baseline.

Change in Overactive Bladder Health Related Quality of Life (HRQL) Secondary · 2 and 3 months post-activation

Change from baseline in the patient reported quality of life as assessed by the Health Related Quality of Life (HRQL) portion of the Overactive Bladder questionnaire (OABq) survey. Higher scores on the HRQL portion indicate better quality of life. The maximum HRQL domain score is 100 (best) and the minimum HRQL score is 0 (worst). A positive change in score indicates an improvement in quality of life.

Sponsor's own description

The goal of this prospective, multi-center, double-blinded randomized controlled is to learn about effectiveness and QOL with eCoin at two different amplitude settings in subjects with urge urinary incontincence (UUI). The main question it aims to answer is: * The reduction in UUI episodes per day on a 3-day voiding diary in both groups after 3 months of therapy Participants will be implanted with the eCoin device and randomized to either a sensory or subsensory stimulation group and complete voiding diaries and patient reported-outcomes through 3 months of therapy. After 3 months, subjects will be unblinded and reprogramming will be offered. Subjects will be followed for an additional month to a total of 4 months.
