Brief Summary: Fecal incontinence FI is a difficulty in storing gas liquid stool or solid stool bowel movement in order to expel it at a proper time and place Patients who suffer from FI may experience passive FI difficulty in sensing stool in the rectum or urgency able to sense a bowel movement but cannot hold the stool until an acceptable time and place FI is not a life-threatening disease but it is often profoundly distressing and socially incapacitating

If a patient is suffering with symptoms of chronic FI despite trying oral medications biofeedback andor other more conservative treatments a patient may be eligible to participate in a clinical research study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of sacral nerve stimulation for the treatment of chronic fecal incontinence One hundred-twenty 120 patients will be implanted with medical devices and followed closely for twelve months and then once a year after that until the study closes There are up to 20 centers in the United States
