Getting an Evaluation

If you suffer from any of the symptoms of urinary retention, you’re not alone. Millions of Americans live with bladder control problems. Medtronic Bladder Control Therapy  (Sacral Neuromodulation), delivered by the InterStim System, may be an option for you.

About the Evaluation

If you have not had success with other treatments or could not tolerate them, talk to your doctor about the Medtronic Bladder Control Therapy evaluation. During the evaluation, you'll have the opportunity to test Medtronic Bladder Control Therapy before making a long-term commitment. The evaluation generally lasts several days. Before and during the evaluation, you'll be asked to track your symptoms to help determine how well the therapy works for you.
