Christopher P. Smith, MD, MBA, MSS, Associate Professor of Urology at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, explores advancements in tibial nerve stimulation for treating bladder dysfunction. He begins this 19-minute presentation with a brief history of percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation, then introduces two significant implantable devices, Valencia’s eco, and the Ravi system. He reports recent guidelines from the AUA and SUFU now classify these therapies as "minimally invasive," encouraging earlier intervention, and ultimately improving tailored patient care in managing bladder dysfunction.
