Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Patient Satisfaction Using the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I)

    Patient satisfaction using the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I. Definition of Success: \>50% responding "very much better" or "much better".

    12 months post implant

  • Assess Change in 24-hour Pad Weight. Definition of Success: >50% With Outcome of Improved, Much Improved, Very Much Improved, or Cured (Dry).

    Endpoint definition: Improved = 25-49% reduction of pad weight, Much Improved = 50-89% reduction of pad weight, Very Much Improved = \<12 grams or 90% reduction in pad weight, Cured = Dry. Definition of Success: \>50% responding "very much better" or "much better".
