Overall, 1/68 (1.5%) implants, 16/110 (14.5%) one implant 13/60 (21.7%) two implants failed least 1 inpatient trial. Patients undergoing shorter compared those (2.2 versus 5.6 days, p<0.01). Duration was MUS (3.5 4.7 significantly (4.2 p=0.001).Conclusions: One experienced short term difficulties. risk increased 5 when inserted.
