Concern regarding the cognitive safety of anticholinergic OAB medications has highlighted the importance of optimizing alternative safe and effective therapies in older patients with OAB, including those with cognitive impairment (CI). The objective of this study is to assess the impact of cognitive function on sacral neuromodulation (SNM) outcomes in older patients. METHODS: This is an IRB-approved prospective study. Patients aged ≥60 years scheduled for test-phase (peripheral nerve evaluation (PNE) or stage 1) SNM for refractory OAB were recruited. Cognitive function was assessed using the validated Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) tool, with scores <26/30 considered CI. Patients underwent initial and follow-up assessments utilizing validated questionnaires (OAB-q SF, IIQ7, UDI-6, PGI-I). Baseline functional status and technology comfort/use were assessed with a novel questionnaire. The primary outcome of test-phase success (>50% improvement in baseline symptoms) was compared based on presence of CI. Secondary outcomes included urinary questionnaire scores and device utilization. RESULTS: 92 patients were recruited, of which 88 underwent test-phase (60 PNE, 28 Stage 1). Mean age was 73±8 years and the majority were female (89%). Mean MoCA score was 23.7±4.1 (range 13 -30), and 63% met criteria for CI (MoCA <26). Patients with CI had lower baseline technology use and confidence. Patient reported measures of OAB symptom severity and impact were similar across the 2 groups. Overall test-phase success was 89% and did not differ based on CI (91% vs 87%, p=0.60). At a mean follow-up of 35±19 days, while patients with CI demonstrated lower rates of appropriate SNM controller use and amplitude changes, the reported symptom and impact outcomes did not differ. CONCLUSIONS: Older patients presenting for SNM testing for OAB have a high incidence of mild and moderate cognitive impairment, also associated with reduced comfort with technology. Test-phase success and short-term patient-reported outcomes after implant were not impacted by cognitive impairment, though long-term results are still unknown.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
