Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (14)
Therapy Responder Rate
Percentage of participants who were determined as responders by the treating physician when using the External Trial Stimulator and who received the Axonics System. At least a 50% reduction in symptoms is considered standard in relevant literature for response rate therefore decision for determination of responder was left to PI discretion.
External Trial System Evaluation
Performance/Effectiveness - Improvement of Patient UUI Symptoms in the Implanted Cohort From Baseline
Change in indication-specific patient symptoms from baseline for all implanted patients by Patient Symptom Questionnaire results. The patient symptoms questionnaire assesses participants' diagnosis-specific symptoms at baseline and at follow-up. Participants who reported a UUI diagnosis at baseline were asked about the number of urgency leaks experienced.
6-months, 1-year
Performance/Effectiveness - Improvement of Patient UF Symptoms in the Implanted Cohort From Baseline
Change in indication-specific patient symptoms from baseline for all implanted patients by Patient Symptom Questionnaire results. The patient symptoms questionnaire assesses participants' diagnosis-specific symptoms at baseline and at follow-up. Participants who reported a UF diagnosis at baseline were asked about the number of urinations they experienced per day and at night.
6-months, 1-year
Performance/Effectiveness - Improvement of Patient Urgency Symptoms in the Implanted Cohort From Baseline
Change in indication-specific patient symptoms from baseline for all implanted patients by Patient Symptom Questionnaire results. The patient symptoms questionnaire assesses participants' diagnosis-specific symptoms at baseline and at follow-up. Participants who reported a UUI diagnosis at baseline were asked about the degree of urgency leaks experienced using the following scale: 0=no urgency; 1=mild urgency; 2= moderate urgency; 3=strong urgency and 4=severe urgency.
6-months, 1-year
Performance/Effectiveness - Improvement of Patient Urinary Urgency Symptoms in the Implanted Cohort From Baseline
Change in indication-specific patient symptoms from baseline for all implanted patients by Patient Symptom Questionnaire results. The patient symptoms questionnaire assesses participants' diagnosis-specific symptoms at baseline and at follow-up. Participants who reported a UF diagnosis at baseline were asked about the degree of urgency experienced using the following scale: 0=no urgency; 1=mild urgency; 2= moderate urgency; 3=strong urgency and 4=severe urgency.
6-months, 1-year
Performance/Effectiveness - Improvement of Patient FI Symptoms in the Implanted Cohort From Baseline
Change in indication-specific patient symptoms from baseline for all implanted patients by Patient Symptom Questionnaire results. The patient symptoms questionnaire assesses participants' diagnosis-specific symptoms at baseline and at follow-up. Participants who reported a FI diagnosis at baseline were asked about the number of FI episodes experienced.
6-months, 1-year
Performance/Effectiveness - Improvement of Patient FI Urgency Symptoms in the Implanted Cohort From Baseline
Change in indication-specific patient symptoms from baseline for all implanted patients by Patient Symptom Questionnaire results. The patient symptoms questionnaire assesses participants' diagnosis-specific symptoms at baseline and at follow-up. Participants who reported a FI diagnosis at baseline were asked about the degree of urgency experienced.
6-months, 1-year
Performance/Effectiveness - Improvement in Quality of Life Scoring for OAB Participants in the Implanted Cohort
Change in ICIQ-OABqol scores at follow-up compared to baseline for implanted participants. Questions in each subscale are scored by a summed range of 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating better quality of life. Overall score ≥ 10 points from baseline to follow-up is considered a minimally important difference (MID).
6-months, 1-year
Performance/Effectiveness - Improvement of Patient UR Symptoms in the Implanted Cohort From Baseline
Change in indication-specific patient symptoms from baseline for all implanted patients by Patient Symptom Questionnaire results. The patient symptoms questionnaire assesses participants' diagnosis-specific symptoms at baseline and at follow-up. Participants who reported a UR diagnosis at baseline were asked about the number of catheterizations required per day.
6-months, 1-year
Performance/Effectiveness - Change in CCF-FIS Score for Participants Diagnosed With FI or With a CCF-FIS Score ≥6 at Baseline
Change in CCF-FIS score at follow-up compared to baseline. Cleveland Clinic Florida - Fecal Incontinence Score (CCF-FIS): includes 5 items (solid, liquid, gas, wears pad and lifestyle alteration) and 5 frequencies (never = 0, rarely = 1, sometimes = 2, usually = 3, always = 4). Scores range from 0 for full continence to 20 for complete incontinence. A higher score indicates more severe FI symptoms and a score ≥ 6 indicates moderate to severe FI symptoms.
6-months, 1-year
Performance/Effectiveness - Change in FIQL Score for Participants Diagnosed With FI or With a CCF-FIS Score ≥6 at Baseline in the Implanted Cohort
Change in FIQL score compared to baseline for implanted participants. Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life (FIQL) includes four different subscales: lifestyle, coping/behavior, depression/self-perception and embarrassment. Subscale scores range from 1 to 5, with 1 indicating lower functional status of qualify of life.
6-months, 1-year
Performance/Effectiveness - Changes From Baseline in O'Leary Sant Score for Urinary Frequency Participants in the Implanted Cohort
Change in O'Leary Sant score at follow-up compared to baseline for all implanted participants. The O'Leary Sant is a validated questionnaire designed to provide data on painful bladder and urinary frequency symptoms. Symptom and Problem Index scores are calculated based on responses to two sets of 4 questions with higher scores representing more symptoms/problems. A total score from 0 - 40 is also calculated based on all responses. At follow-up, an O'Leary Sant was only collected for those participants an O'Leary Sant score ≥ 6 at baseline.
6-months, 1-year
Performance/Effectiveness - Change in AUA-SI Score for Urinary Retention Participants in the Implanted Cohort
Change in AUA-SI score at follow-up compared to baseline for Urinary Retention participants who were implanted with the device. The AUA-SI (American Urological Association Symptom Index) is a questionnaire used to assess the severity of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in men, with scores ranging from 0 to 35, categorizing symptoms as mild (0-7), moderate (8-19), or severe (20-35). A higher score indicates more severe UR symptoms and a score of greater than 8 indicates moderate to severe UR symptoms.
6-months, 1-year
Adverse Event Reporting (Safety)
The number and participant rates of device-related AEs and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), including Serious Adverse Device Effects (SADEs).
