Sacral nerve stimulation (SNS) implant. Computer artwork of the sacral region of a woman showing a sacral nerve stimulator implanted in the abdomen. SNS delivers an electrical impulse to stimulate the sacral nerve as a treatment for those with bladder control problems. It is thought that the impulse from SNS facilitates communication between the brain and bladder, helping to relieve the symptoms of urinary retention or an over-active bladder.
