TIBIALISSTIMULERING - EN BEHANDLING VID ÖVERAKTIV BLÅSA

JÖNSSON, LENA, ÄRLEMYR, KARIN January 2009 (has links)
Överaktiv blåsa är ett vanligt problem som beräknas drabba 16 % av befolkningen. En behandlingsform som använts länge är elektostimulering av genitalia. På senare år har stimulering av tibialisnerven vid mediala malleolen prövats som behandling. Syftet med studien var att undersöka vad som finns skrivet om elektrostimulering av tibialisnerven för att lindra symtom vid överaktiv blåsa. En litteraturstudie baserad på tio kvantitativa artiklar genomfördes. Resultaten visade att behandling med tibialisstimulering kunde öka blåskapaciteten och minska antalet miktioner och inkontinensepisoder. Flera studier visade att livskvaliteten förbättrades för patienterna efter behandlingen. Den vanligaste behandlingstiden var en gång i veckan i 12 veckor. Subjektiv respons, uttryckt som patientens önskan om fortsatt behandling, uppmättes till mellan 50-60 % i flera av studierna. Inga allvarliga biverkningar rapporterades. / Overactive bladder is a common disorder that affects approximately 16% of the population. Electrostimulation in the genitalia is a treatment that has been used for many years. In recent years stimulation of the tibial nerve by the medial malleol has been tried. The aim of the study was to find out what has been written about treating OAB (overactive bladder) with electric stimulation of the tibial nerve. A literature review based on ten quantitative articles was carried out. The results showed that treatment with stimulation of the tibial nerve might improve bladder capacity and reduce frequency and incontinence-episodes. Several studies showed an increased quality of life after treatment. Most common was to perform treatment once a week for 12 weeks. Subjective success, defined as a request from the patient for continous treatment, was seen in 50-60 % of the patients in some studies. No serious side effects were reported.
