Abstract
A method of treating an overactive bladder condition includes providing a stimulation device having a generator enclosing a primary cell that is coupled to circuitry, and a lead coupling an electrode assembly to the generator, where the circuitry is operable to generate a stimulation signal with a duty cycle of between 0.1% and 2.5% and a total average current drain from the primary cell of between 0.1 μA and 5 μA, with the total average current drain including a background current plus a stimulation current weighted by the duty cycle; forming an incision in skin of a patient diagnosed with the overactive bladder condition; implanting the stimulation device in the patient by inserting the stimulation device into the incision in the skin of the patient; and closing the incision.
