Abstract：
OBJECTIVES:To use a human factors approach to conduct a needs assessment of patient preparedness, education, device usability, and satisfaction regarding all stages of sacral neuromodulation therapy and identify opportunities for improvement. Sacral neuromodulation, though minimally invasive, involves an initial testing phase that requires active patient participation. This process is relatively complex and, if a patient does not receive adequate preprocedure education, can be difficult to conceptualize. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Candidates were recruited to participate before undergoing staged sacral neuromodulation. Ten patients were observed, and their experiences were evaluated at 4 phases: (1) date of test implant (Stage I), (2) 5 days following Stage I, (3) date of permanent implant (Stage II), and (4) 3 months following Stage II. Administered questionnaires focused on preoperative preparedness, postoperative satisfaction, and usability. RESULTS:While every patient reported that their symptoms were at least "a little better" postoperatively, they generally had difficulty understanding the risks of the planned procedure, did not know what to expect postoperatively and were unsatisfied with the preoperative materials. Patients struggled with adjusting the settings for their implant devices and usability was considered "below average." Despite overall objective success, 30% of patients indicated that they would not recommend this treatment to friends/family. CONCLUSION:This pilot needs analysis demonstrates several opportunities for improvement in the experience of patients undergoing sacral neuromodulation. These findings highlight the opportunities for a multifaceted intervention to improve patient understanding through the testing phase.
