Previous issue date: 2011-02-17 === Introduction: Radical prostatectomy surgery is the best treatment currently adopted by
detecting prostate cancer. The urinary incontinence is one more common and difficult to
treat postoperative complications, which causes a negative impact on quality of life of
the individual prostatectomy . The surface electrical nerve stimulation involves the
transmission of electrical impulses from an external stimulator for peripheral nerve
through surface electrodes attached to skin. It is an easy and efficient technique, widely
used for pain relief, rehabilitation and muscle strengthening. Objective: To analyze the
effect of T10-L2 percutaneous electrical stimulation, in individuals with urinary
incontinence who underwent radical prostatectomy by the laparoscopic technique.
Methods: Six patients had previously undergone radical prostatectomy were submitted
to 20 sections of surface electrical stimulation with frequency of 4 Hz, pulse width of
1ms during 20 minutes. All subjects fillid a quality of life - International Consultation on
Incontinence Questionnaire- Short FormI - ICIQ-SF questionnaire evaluating. Results:
Results showed reduction in the use of the number of pads, number of leaks before and
after treatment, and reduced voiding frequency and consequent improvement in quality
of life. No side effects were reported. Conclusion: Percutanous electrical stimulation in
T10-L2 may be an effective technique to treat urinary incontinence (UI) after radical
prostatectomy video laparoscopy === Introdu??o: A prostatectomia radical ? o tratamento mais adotado atualmente ao se
detectar c?ncer de pr?stata, sendo a incontin?ncia urin?ria uma das complica??es p?soperat?rias
mais comun, causando impacto negativo na qualidade de vida do individuo
prostatectomizado. A estimula??o el?trica nervosa de superf?cie envolve a transmiss?o
de impulsos el?tricos de um estimulador externo para o sistema nervoso perif?rico,
atrav?s de eletrodos aderidos a pele sendo uma t?cnica simples e eficiente, muito
utilizada para o al?vio da dor, reeduca??o e fortalecimento muscular. Objetivo: Analisar
o efeito da eletroestimula??o percut?nea em T10-L2, em indiv?duos com incontin?ncia
urin?ria, submetidos a prostatectomia radical pela t?cnica de videolaparoscopia.
M?todos: Seis pacientes previamente submetidos a prostatectomia radical realizaram
20 atendimentos de eletroestimula??o de superf?cie a n?vel de T10-L2, com frequ?ncia
de 4 Hz, largura de pulso de 1ms durante 20 minutos. Todos os sujeitos preencheram o
question?rio de avalia??o da qualidade de vida - International Consultation on
Incontinence Questionnaire- Short FormI ICIQ-SF. Resultados: Os resultados
mostraram redu??o do uso do n?mero de protetores, de perdas urin?rias, antes e
depois do tratamento, al?m da diminui??o da frequ?ncia miccional e consequente
melhora da qualidade de vida. Nenhum efeito colateral foi registrado. Conclus?o: A
eletroestimula??o de superf?cie a n?vel de T10-L2 pode ser uma t?cnica eficaz no
tratamento da incontin?ncia urin?ria (IU) p?s prostatectomia radical por video
laparoscopia
