A sensing device can be used for ambulatory urodynamics. The sensing device can include an elongated outer housing constructed of flexible material that can curve within a patient's bladder. At least a portion of the outer housing can be filled with a non-compressible fluid. A flexible printed circuit board can be disposed within the outer housing to curve with the outer housing. The printed circuit board can include a pressure sensor, comprising a diaphragm, to collect pressure data; a microcontroller running control software; and a wireless transmitter to transmit the pressure data. A battery can be disposed within the outer housing and coupled to the printed circuit board. The flexible material of the outer housing is configured to be displaced by a pressure within the patient's bladder, the displacement is transmitted through the non-compressible fluid to the pressure sensor that provides the pressure data based on the displacement.

Temporary or sub-threshold electrical stimulation to promote recovery of a damaged or injured nerve. Methods include promoting neuroregeneration of a nerve iatrogenically injured during a medical procedure performed on a target site of a patient's body. Methods include placing an electrical lead in electrical communication with the injured or damaged nerve. Methods further include temporarily stimulating the nerve and/or applying sub-threshold stimulation to the nerve to promote neuroregeneration of the nerve. The nerve can be a peripheral nerve.
