Joaquín Carballido Rodríguez, Head of the Urology Service at Puerta de Hierro University Hospital and Chair of Urology at the Autonomous University, shares his vision on the role NESA can play within the current development of functional urology. In his testimony, he explains that this area of the specialty represents one of the most complex and challenging fields of urological practice, precisely because of the difficulty of fully interpreting the mechanisms involved in urinary regulation and other functions related to the autonomic nervous system.
From this perspective, he highlights that one of the main attractions of NESA is its character of non-invasive neuromodulation, as well as its ability to fit into a more modern vision of medicine, focused on better understanding the involvement of the autonomic nervous system in multiple functional processes. As he points out, any innovation that helps shed light on these connections and offer new therapeutic ways should be considered with interest, especially when the ultimate goal is to improve patient care.
Joaquín Carballido also emphasizes that current clinical practice can no longer focus solely on the technical result or the objective response to treatment, but must decisively incorporate the patient’s perception, their quality of life and their ability to recover well-being, sociability and functionality. In this context, he considers that NESA fits very well with the concept of personalized medicine: finding the right treatment, for the right patient, at the right time.
