ONGOING PTNM: MONTHLY MAINTENANCE PTNM FOR SENIOR LIVING RESIDENTS

LIVING WITH LASTING RESULTS

Imagine socializing with friends and family, free to enjoy all the activities you love without worrying about accidents.

That’s the real potential of percutaneous tibial neuromodulation (PTNM) delivered by the NUROTM system. And if it works for you, you can continue with maintenance therapy for long-term treatment. If you follow a regular maintenance therapy schedule, PTNM has the potential to provide lasting, long-term relief.1

WHAT TO EXPECT

When you are on maintenance therapy, treatments are scheduled every three to four weeks. These sessions are exactly the same as the first 12, and can be completed in the privacy of your room, at a time that is convenient for you.

KEY POINTS FOR FAMILY MEMBERS

  • The clinician administering the therapy will determine whether your family member should move onto maintenance therapy.
  • You can help with this process by working with your family member to fill out the weekly symptom tracker for the clinician to review at each therapy visit.
