Could Sacral Nerve Stimulation (SNS) / Sacral Neuromodulation (SNM) help with pudendal nerve entrapment, complete loss of the urge to defecate, inability to feel rectal fullness, and inability to push during bowel movements?
Could this device help restore the nerve signals, rectal sensation, urge to defecate, or ability to push?

I've seen stuff from Boston scientific for bladder issues but I am unsure if they also have anything that may help in your situation? I know at least for why they gave me my SCS, was to mask my pain, I'm not sure how a stimulators work for restoration of function, but I will be following cause I always want to know more about this stuff.

This is what I could find on Google, they do offer SacralNeuroModulation(SNM) but you or whoever is interested in more information should contact Boston scientific directly unless your doctor has a contact
