class="accordion-block"> <div class="accordion-button">1. What are the indications for <span class="faq-axonics">Axonics<sup>®</sup> </span> <span class="faq-sacral">Sacral</span> Neuromodulation Therapy?</div> <div class="accordion-panel"><span> The Axonics System is indicated for the treatment of the symptoms of overactive bladder, including urinary urgency incontinence and urinary urgency/frequency, nonobstructive urinary retention, and fecal (bowel) incontinence. </span></div> <div class="accordion-button">2. Does the Axonics System offer therapy evaluations?</div> <div class="accordion-panel"><span> Yes, the Axonics System offers both types of Sacral Neuromodulation Therapy evaluations: a basic Trial or Peripheral Nerve Evaluation (PNE) and an Advanced Trial. <span class="links-border"> <a href="/hcp/axonics-system/external-trial-system">Click here to learn more</a>. </span> </span></div> <div class="accordion-button">3. Is the implant procedure different from other Sacral Neuromodulation systems?</div> <div class="accordion-panel"><span> A clinician experienced with the implantation of other Sacral Neuromodulation systems can readily perform the implant procedure of the Axonics System because the procedure is consistent with best practices in Sacral Neuromodulation implantation. One material difference is that the procedure is less invasive—requiring only a 2.5cm incision and no deeper than a 2cm pocket for the implant—due to the small size of the neurostimulator. </span></div> <div class="accordion-button">4. Does the Axonics System deliver constant current or constant voltage stimulation?</div> <div class="accordion-panel"><span> The Axonics System delivers constant current stimulation, which helps patients maintain stimulation in the optimum therapeutic range. Constant current can overcome impedance changes, such as scar tissue formation around the implanted lead to continue to provide consistent stimulation over time. </span></div> <div class="accordion-button">5. What is the size of the implantable neurostimulator?</div> <div class="accordion-panel"><span> The neurostimulator is ~5cc volume in size. This is ~60% smaller than the InterStim II<sup>TM</sup> neurostimulator (14cc). </span></div> <div class="accordion-button">6. How often does the neurostimulator need to be replaced?</div> <div class="accordion-panel"><span> The Axonics System is approved to provide therapy for at least 15 years, which includes a 15-year life for the neurostimulator and tined lead. The system may operate beyond 15 years at the discretion of the physician. </span></div> <div class="accordion-button">7. Can patients be referred for an MRI with the Axonics System?</div> <div class="accordion-panel"><span> Yes, the Axonics System is full-body MRI 1.5T conditionally safe and head coil MRI 1.5T and 3T conditionally safe. Please reference the Axonics MRI Guidelines carefully before use to learn about the conditions, potential risks, precautions, and instructions on using MRI with the Axonics System. <span class="links-border"><a href="/hcp/axonics-system/mri-compatibility">Click here to learn more.</a></span> </span></div> <div class="accordion-button">8. What are the contraindications of Axonics Sacral Neuromodulation Therapy?</div> <div class="accordion-panel"><span> Axonics Sacral Neuromodulation Therapy is not intended for patients with mechanical urinary obstruction. <span class="links-border"><a href="/important-safety-information">Click here</a></span> for further information regarding our Important Safety Information. </span></div> <div class="accordion-button">9. How do I get started with the Axonics System?</div> <div class="accordion-panel"><span> For more information about the Axonics System and getting started, <span class="links-border"><a href="/hcp/contact/contact-us">click here to contact us</a></span> and provide your contact information.
