Of these, 256 patients met the study inclusion criteria. Median age at implantation was 52\u00a0years (range 18\u201381). The ratio of women to men was 205:51. Indications were urge FI (25%), passive FI (17.9%) and mixed FI (57%). The median of the incontinence score at baseline was 19\/24 and this improved to 7\/24 at the 6\u2010month follow\u2010up. Of the total cohort, 235 patients received a medium\u2010term follow\u2010up (median 110\u00a0months, range 12\u2013270) with a median continence score of 10\/24 which was also confirmed at the telephone long\u2010term follow\u2010up on 185 patients (132\u00a0months, range 60\u2013276).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study demonstrates that SNS is an effective treatment in the long term. SNS results in an improvement of validated scores for approximately 60% of patients; however, there is a significant reduction of efficacy over time due to underlying causes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/codi.15369","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,9,21]],"date-time":"2020-09-21T02:05:02Z","timestamp":1600653902000},"page":"2191-2198","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Long\u2010term outcome of sacral nerve stimulation for faecal incontinence"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5759-0345","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"C.
