Objetivo: Avaliar o efeito da eletroestimulação do nervo tibial posterior na freqüência miccional em mulheres com incontinência urinária de urgência ou com incontinência mista. Métodos: Seis pacientes do sexo feminino, com média de idade de 65,5 anos, com diagnóstico clínico de incontinência urinária de urgência ou mista, realizaram 12 sessões de eletroestimulação transcutânea no limiar sensitivo do nervo tibial posterior, utilizando eletrodos auto-adesivos. O efeito da eletroestimulação foi analisado por meio do diário miccional entregue às participantes antes da primeira e após a última sessão. Resultados: A análise estatística demonstrou uma redução significativa da freqüência miccional (p = 0,002). Em 50% das pacientes houve resposta completa ao tratamento e 33,3% resposta parcial. Todas as participantes optaram pela continuação do tratamento após o término do estudo. Conclusão: A eletroestimulação do nervo tibial posterior utilizando eletrodos auto-adesivos é uma técnica segura e de fácil aplicação, e foi capaz, neste estudo, de reduzir a freqüência miccional em pacientes com incontinência urinária de urgência ou com incontinência mista.
Palavras-chave: incontinência urinária, eletroestimulação, nervo tibial posterior, freqüência miccional.
