Improvement in overactive bladder symptoms in patients using functional electrical stimulation of the common peroneal nerve for walking.

CONCLUSION: The results of this exploratory study suggest that functional electrical stimulation use does improve overactive bladder symptoms in people with multiple sclerosis. Further exploration is needed to study this association and explore whether the mechanism is similar to that of percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation, a recognized treatment for the overactive bladder.
