Counseling
When should we introduce 3rd line therapies?
Is there “typical” scripting?
Which therapy in this patient?

• Urgency with occasional close calls
• Frequency q1.5 hours; nocturia x3
• Very mild obstructive symptoms
• PVR: 20 cc
• Failed mirabegron and declines antimuscarinic

Caveats for a male?
• Counseling
• How do you choose?
• Minimum work up before 3rd lines?
• If you do onabotulinumtoxin, technique?
• What about PTNS?
![Page 15: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

OptionsConsider pros and cons of each
![Page 17: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
PTNS: What is it?
• Peripheral neuromodulation technique
• Equivalent to Stoller afferent nerve stimulation (SANS)
• Technique originates from traditional Chinese medicine
• Acupuncture over posterior tibial nerve
• Often combined with sacral or pubic sites for pelvic disorders
![Page 18: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Tibial Nerve for OAB
• PTNS (percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation)
• Once weekly for 12 weeks, and then monthly
• Data is good
• Requires travel and frequent visits
![Page 19: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Technique
![Page 20: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Technique
• Treatment leg is elevated• 34-gauge needle placed at posterior tibial nerve two fingers
above medial malleolus• Needle should be near, but not on nerve• Grounding electrode over medial aspect of calcaneus• Low voltage (9V) stimulation, fixed frequency of 20 Hz
Contraindications: Cardiac pacemakers/defibrillatorspregnancy, those seeking pregnancy, nerve damage
![Page 21: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What to expect…
• Well tolerated?
• General success rates?
• Durability?
• Do you have to keep doing it?
• Why don’t we do more?
![Page 22: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
PTNS Outcomes
• Success rates
• Better efficacy combined with meds
• Should complete full 12 weeks of treatment
• Need maintenance
![Page 23: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Unknowns…
• Can we achieve a therapy that allows better patient compliance?
• Can this therapy have better results if administered more often?
![Page 24: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
PTNS Summary
• Pros and cons
• THE most minimally invasive option
• Practicality may be an issue
• Must complete 12 weeks
• Need monthly maintenance
![Page 25: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Case #3
• 46-year-old woman with dual incontinence
• Failed 1st and 2nd line therapies for OAB
• Fecal incontinence in spite of high fiber intake and PT
![Page 26: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Best option…Sacral neuromodulation
![Page 27: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
SNS an easy option
• PNE or staged?
• Flow in your clinic
• Staff engagement, assistance, empowerment
• Programming, educating, interrogating
• Lean on you reps!!
![Page 28: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Optimizing lead placement
But are we doing our best?
![Page 29: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Aims for placement
Achieve stimulation in all 4 electrodes under 2 V
Optimal lead placement superomedial in S3 foramen
![Page 30: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• How is that even possible?!
• (IS it?!!)
![Page 31: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Objective: The lead should follow the nerve
The S3 nerve
emerges in the upper
medial quadrant.
![Page 32: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Use landmarks• Fluoroscopy to localize target points
• Position patient so that C-arm can image sacrum and coccyx
• Drape so buttocks are visible
• Target: superior and medial
• Goal: “bellows” and great toe plantarflexion
![Page 33: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

All wrong
![Page 42: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Important message
Don’t judge earlier placement by what we know today
![Page 43: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Considerations
• SUI
• Programming
• Combination therapy
![Page 45: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Take homes• It IS absolutely possible to get:
• All 4 electrodes to stimulate under 2
• Know landmarks and use them!
• Practice makes ”perfect!”
• Give your patients the best you can give them
![Page 46: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Take homes• Engage your staff
• Consider batching
• PTNS ties up room but not staff
• If PNE ties things up, do staged in OR
• Lean on industry representatives (they want to help you!)
• We all get better with time
![Page 47: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Case #4
• 46-year-old woman with multiple sclerosis and OAB
• Failed 1st an 2nd line therapies
• Detrusor overactivity on urodynamics
![Page 48: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Some thoughts…
MINIMAL EVALUATION? UDS NECESSARY? ANYTHING NOT AN OPTION?
![Page 49: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Botulinum Toxin Prep
• 50 mL vial of 1% lidocaine into the bladder
• Lidocaine jelly to the urethra• Betadine prep to urethra• Botulinum toxin diluted
• OnabotulinumtoxinA – 10 mL NS
• Don’t shake the vial!
• Needle out and ready to use• Antibiotics
All done by the nursing staff
![Page 50: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Botulinum Toxin Prep• 100-200 units of BoNT-A
• Dilute with sterile NS
• Don’t shake vial
• Lidocaine gel/fluid – allows for injection in office
• Cystoscope – flex or rigid
• Needle - depends on scope used
![Page 51: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Botulinum Toxin Injection
• 0.5 - 1 ml/injection site
• 5-10 units per site
• 10-20 sites
• Trigone?
• Injection depth – suburothelial vs. intradetrusor
![Page 52: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
CystoscopeRigid
• Easier for women
• Cheaper needles
• Easier to stay on template
• Lateral wall more of a challenge
• Two hands sufficient
Flexible
• Easier for men
• More expensive
• Needle
• Damage to working channel
• Template?
• Need three hands!
![Page 53: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Injection NeedlesFlexible Cystoscope
• Olympus
• Cook
• Laborie
Rigid Cystoscope
• Williams• Most expensive
• Needle within protective sheath• No impact on deflection of scope
• Sharp needle
![Page 54: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Injection Template
![Page 55: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Injection Template
• Efficacy comparable to phase 3 trials
• 73 patients – none required CIC
• Related to afferent target as opposed to detrusor?
MacDiarmid et al, SUFU, 2020
![Page 56: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
OnobotulinumtoxinA for NDO Catheterization
• de novo CIC rate (for those not on CIC at baseline)
• 200 U – 30.6%
• Placebo – 6.7%
• No definition of retention/when to start CIC
• Consider 100 U for pts not on CIC at baseline
Ginsberg, et al, J Urol, 2012Cruz, et al, Eur Urol, 2011
Tullman, et al, Neurology, 2018
MS patients, CIC rate with 100 U• BoNT-A – 15.2%• Placebo – 2.6%
![Page 57: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
NGB/NDO – 100 vs 200 U onabotA
100 U
• Volitional void
• Low PVR
• Wants to avoid CIC
• What if unable to CIC?
200 U
• Already on CIC
• Able to CIC
• Wants max efficacy
![Page 58: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
CIC Post-Injection• Back in two weeks
• All about symptoms
• Do not need to base on arbitrary PVR volume
• Diabetics a bigger concern
• CIC with diabetes (81) – 12.3%
• CIC w/o diabetes (526) – 6.3%Collins et al, Int Urogynecol J, 2017
![Page 59: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Right and Wrong Patient
Optimal
• OAB/UUI
• Urodynamic DO
• Able and willing to CIC
• Neurogenic
Suboptimal
• Can’t or won’t consider CIC
• Looking for bowel help
• High PVR at baseline
• BOO at baseline
![Page 60: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
BTX after SNS failure
• 76 patients after failed SNS (62F)
• 43% success
• 36-month persistence – 48.1%
• Primary cause of discontinuation – failure (42%)
Baron et al, Neururol Urodyn, 2020
![Page 61: Practical implementation of 3rd line therapies for ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012415/617010dccdbde9549c627900/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Take homes• Can do in office
• Patients tolerate well
• Use the scope that works for you
• Protect your fiberoptics!
• No aminoglycosides
• If not better, check PVR and UA
• Use with caution in patients with BOO
