1) 2 Hz sacral nerve stimulation was more effective than 14 Hz stimulation at reversing changes in anal evoked potentials caused by pudendal nerve injury in a rodent model. 2) While 14 Hz stimulation restored evoked potentials to baseline levels after injury, 2 Hz stimulation potentiated potentials beyond baseline levels. 3) Therefore, lower stimulation frequencies like 2 Hz may be more effective in improving anal sensation in patients with fecal incontinence compared to the standard 14 Hz frequency currently used.
