Do you feel like you constantly need to urinate? Do you have trouble getting to the
bathroom before leaks occur? You may qualify to participate in a new study.
NAFC is partnering with a company to recruit new patients for a clinical study for the
Intibia™ System – an investigational device designed to treat urgency urinary
incontinence through an outpatient procedure.
What causes Urgency Urinary Incontinence (UUI)?
When the bladder system is working correctly, nerves that control the bladder sense
that the bladder is getting full, telling you it’s time to urinate.

However, in people with UUI, these bladder nerves are overactive, telling you it’s time to
urinate before your bladder is full. Your bladder muscle follows by contracting too early,
causing the bladder to empty before it should, resulting in unwanted bladder leaks.

What is the Intibia System?
The Intibia System is an investigational device designed to improve UUI symptoms.
Intibia is a small implant that is placed just above the ankle, near the tibial nerve through
an outpatient procedure. The tibial nerve communicates with nerves that control bladder
function.

The Intibia System is currently being offered at select centers in the U.S. through a new
clinical research study. If you qualify and choose to join the study, you will receive the
Intibia System and all study-related care at no cost.

Do I Qualify?
If you suffer from urgency urinary incontinence and have not had success with other
treatments, you may be eligible to participate. If you qualify and choose to join the
study, you will receive:
