Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Performance/effectiveness - Improvement in Quality of Life scoring (FI)
Short-term FI improvement demonstrated by Cleveland Clinic Florida Fecal Incontinence Score (CCF-FIS). Cleveland Clinic Florida - Fecal Incontinence Score (CCF-FIS): scores range from 0 for full continence to 20 for complete incontinence. A higher score is indicative of the severity of fecal incontinence.
Performance/effectiveness - Improvement in patient satisfaction scoring (FI)
Short-term FI improvement demonstrated by Participant Satisfaction with Treatment and Charging Questionnaire. Participants will indicate satisfaction with SNM therapy for treatment of their FI symptoms based on a 7-point Likert scale ranging from "Very satisfied" to "Very dissatisfied".
Secondary outcomes
Performance/effectiveness - Improvement in Quality of Life scoring (FI)
Demonstrate any improvement in CCF-FIS at 1-year post-implant compared to baseline. Cleveland Clinic Florida - Fecal Incontinence Score (CCF-FIS): scores range from 0 for full continence to 20 for complete incontinence. A higher score is indicative of the severity of fecal incontinence.
Performance/effectiveness - Improvement in Quality of Life scoring (FI)
Demonstrate an improvement in Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life (FIQOL) at 3 months, and 1-year post-implant compared to baseline. Fecal Incontinence Quality of Life (FIQOL) includes four different subscales: lifestyle, coping/behavior, depression/self-perception and embarrassment. Subscale scores range from 1 to 5, with 1 indicating lower functional status of qualify of life.
Performance/effectiveness - Improvement in patient satisfaction scoring (FI)
Participant Satisfaction with Treatment and Charging Questionnaire at 1-year post-implant compared to baseline. Participants will indicate satisfaction with SNM therapy for treatment of their FI symptoms based on a 7-point Likert scale ranging from "Very satisfied" to "Very dissatisfied".
