How the InterStim™ systems work
With the InterStim™ systems, the implanted neurostimulator
and lead electrically stimulate the sacral nerve. This is thought
to normalise neural communication between the bladder and
brain and between the bowel and brain.4,5 Unlike oral
medications that target the muscular component of bladder
control, the InterStim™ systems offer control of symptoms
through direct modulation of the nerve activity.

One key advantage of this therapy is that it can be tested for potential success prior to implantation. The evaluation provides an opportunity to find out whether adequate symptom reduction is achieved. Complications can occur with the evaluation, including tissue damage, infection, and technical problems with the device. Patients should be instructed on operating the programmer and given precautions related to the evaluation.
The most common adverse events experienced during
clinical studies of patients with SNM included pain at
implant sites, new pain, lead migration, infection,
technical or device problems, adverse change in bowel
or voiding function, and undesirable stimulation or
sensations. Any of these may require additional surgery
or cause the return of symptoms.

For bowel control
Product Details
Meet InterStim X™ our newest recharge-free system for
patients living with bladder and bowel control symptoms.
InterStim X™ is the next generation of the first and most
established Sacral Neuromodulation technology.
As the only recharge-free sacral neuromodulation device, the industry-defining InterStim™ II system gives patients the convenience of bladder or bowel control without a
recharging routine.
Proprietary SureScan™ MRI technology expands eligibility and allows patients with either InterStim™ system to get fullbody* 1.5T and 3T MRI scans.
The recharge-free InterStim™ neurostimulator streamlines the implant procedure with a design that eliminates the need for the lead extension and uses fewer set screws
