a Overview of the system evaluation in implanted condition. b Experiment protocol for the freely moving rat. The rat underwent the same procedure as the acute experiment after a 3-day recovery period. c Nerve signal measurement and ECAP analysis in implanted conditions. Motion and ECAP thresholds were evaluated. d Comparison of micturition patterns between motion threshold stimulation and ECAP threshold stimulation. The plot shows micturition time points and intervals for TNS effectiveness analysis. (* IBP: intra-bladder pressure) Created in BioRender. Rachim, V. (2025) https://BioRender.com/3p6au1k.
