Effect of Tibial Transcutaneous Electrostimulation in Women with Urgency Urinary Incontinence

Urge urinary incontinence (UUI) is associated with nocturia, a common cause of sleep disorders, also related to levels of anxiety and depression. Studies demonstrate improvement in the clinical parameters of women with UUI after treatment with transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS). However, there are few data available on the association of urinary symptoms in women with UUI with sedentary behavior (SB), physical activity level (PAL) and sleep quality (SQ). Our study has the objective of evaluating the impact of TTNS on urinary symptoms, anxiety level, life quality(LQ), sleep parameters, PAL and SB in women with UUI.
