Data from self\u2010report OAB questionnaire\u00a0short form (q\u2010SF) and incontinence\u00a0(I)\u2010QoL questionnaires were collected pretreatment and at Weeks 6 and 12.

Of those, 61 completed all questionnaires and were analyzed as per protocol. Statistically significant improvements in OAB\u2010q\u2010SF and I\u2010QoL between baseline and end\u2010of\u2010treatment scores were observed in both TTNS and PTNS groups (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.001), being the differences much higher than the minimal important difference in both questionnaires. The scores of the OAB\u2010q\u2010SF scales (symptoms bother and health\u2010related QoL) showed no statistically significant differences between the two groups. Similarly, the differences regarding the I\u2010QoL questionnaire were statistically nonsignificant either (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.607). When assessing the treatment benefit on symptoms, TBS responses between groups showed no statistical differences.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>A significant improvement of QoL was observed in both TTNS and PTNS groups. However, no patient\u2010reported outcomes measures scores support a difference between the two groups. Therefore, these findings along with TTNS ease of application and less invasiveness may lead to an increased indication of this technique for OAB.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/nau.24554","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,29]],"date-time":"2020-10-29T12:00:53Z","timestamp":1603972853000},"page":"295-302","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Patient\u2010reported
