Abstract:
Nerve stimulation systems and methods are disclosed for providing modulation of nerve targets in the lower limbs typically at or below the knee. For example, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), percutaneous nerve stimulation, and implantable stimulation systems and methods are disclosed for providing stimulation to the saphenous nerve (SAFN). Additionally, systems and methods are provided for co-stimulating the posterior tibial nerve (PTN) and SAFN in combination with unique stimulation, and with control and display of OAB therapy protocols for multiple sites. Systems and methods of treatment can provide for management of usage and compliance monitoring, obtain and operating upon patient input responses to queries and management of payments and permissions related to provision of therapies for various disorders. Monitoring of usage and compliance can be managed both locally and remotely from a user. Stimulation provided in combination with a passive implantable component is also disclosed.
