The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Tensi+ device using Transcutaneous Posterior Tibial Nerve Stimulation (TPTNS) for treating patients suffering from OAB symptoms urinary frequency, urgency, with or without urge urinary incontinence.

Treatment success
Percentage of responders in urgency events, where a responder is defined as a subject that either achieves a 50% or greater reduction, from baseline to Week 12, in total urgency events per day, or returns to normal (0 events per day) at Week 12. This endpoint will be evaluated through 3-day bladder diaries.
Time frame: 12 weeks
Frequency of urinary voids
Percentage of responders in urinary frequency, where a responder is defined as a subject that either achieves a 30% or greater reduction, from baseline to Week 12, in total urinary frequency per day, or returns to normal
Time frame: 12 weeks
Urge urinary incontinence
Percentage of responders in urge urinary incontinence, where a responder is defined as a subject that either achieves a 30% or greater reduction, from baseline to Week 12, in total urinary frequency per day, or returns to normal (0 events per day)
Time frame: 12 weeks
Overall Responder Rate Across OAB Symptoms
Overall Responder rate defined as the percentage of responders who meet at least the responder criteria in one of the 3 symptoms of OAB, from baseline to Week 12 (urgency, frequency and UUI) from baseline
Time frame: 12 weeks
Quality of life measures
Measured using the OAB-q Short Form (SF) questionnaire, which includes 19 questions scored from 1 ("none of the time") to 6 ("all of the time"). The total score ranges from 19 (best QOL) to 114 (worst QOL). A decrease in score from baseline to Week 12 indicates an improvement in quality of life.
Time frame: 12 weeks
Endurance of effect
Maintenance of responder status from the primary endpoint (Week 12) through the last follow-up visit without relapse (Week 24), indicating a sustained treatment effect until the end-of-study visit.
