Study Description

All eligible subjects will be implanted with the INTIBIA device. Subjects will be randomized to either INTIBIA therapeutic or INTIBIA non-therapeutic in a 2:1 ratio for the first 3 months of the study, at which point all subjects will receive therapeutic stimulation. Subjects will complete voiding diaries and questionnaires at Baseline and prior to each follow-up visit, which will occur at Months 3, 6, 12, and 24. Subjects will be offered to keep the device or have it explanted at the end of the study.
