What Is Overactive Bladder?

Overactive bladder—which your doctor may refer to as “OAB”—is an umbrella term that includes the frequent and urgent need to empty your bladder. One of the most common symptoms of overactive bladder is a sudden urge to urinate, resulting in unintentional urine loss.

Overactive Bladder Symptoms

You may be suffering from overactive bladder if:

Urgency

You experience a sudden or compelling need to urinate with inability to hold urine or control it

Urgency Incontinence

You experience an urgent need to urinate and have urinary leakage accidents or trouble holding urine before making it to the restroom

Frequency

You go to the restroom to urinate so often that it disrupts your life—typically 8 or more times a day

Nocturia

You wake up more than 1 time per night because you need to urinate

Did you know that patients can suffer from dual incontinence?
Dual incontinence is when a patient is experiencing both bladder and bowel control symptoms.

THE EVALUATION STEP:

To see if Axonics Therapy is right for you, you will undergo a short period of therapy using a temporary system. The evaluation period allows you to experience the level of symptom relief the therapy may provide before you commit to long-term therapy.

LONG-TERM THERAPY:

If you and your doctor determine that Axonics Therapy is right for you, you will have an outpatient procedure where the miniaturized Axonics implant is placed just beneath the skin in the upper part of your buttock.

Who is a good candidate for Axonics Therapy?

Axonics Therapy is an approved treatment for patients suffering with:

  • Overactive bladder (OAB) – the urgent need to urinate which may result in frequent urination and/or incontinence (leakage) episodes
  • Urinary frequency – the need to urinate 8 or more times a day, which may or may not be associated with urgency
  • Urinary urgency incontinence (UUI) – the urgent need to urinate or trouble holding urine before making it to the restroom
  • Fecal (bowel) incontinence – involuntary loss of stool which may or may not be associated with urgency
  • Nonobstructive urinary retention (UR) – the inability to completely empty the bladder which may result in trouble urinating or frequent small voids
  • Axonics Therapy is indicated for patients who have failed conservative treatments, such as lifestyle changes, physical therapy, or medications.
