DEVICE AND METHOD FOR EXTERNAL URINARY INCONTINENCE TREATMENT FOR MEN

摘要

The present invention is a device and method for external urinary incontinence treatment for men that can be self-deployed by a patient or by a care giver. Via the device, a urine removal tube is reversible connected to the glans penis of a treated patient for the removal of urine from a treated patient. The device of the present invention is composed of a penis connecting component and a tube connector component. The tube connector component reversibly contact-connects a urine receiving component to the glans penis of a treated patient. The tube connector component is reversibly connected, anchored and fixated in place to the glans penis of the treated patient by the penis connection component. The connection, disconnection and again reconnection of the penis connection component to the glans penis is easy and simple to carry out.’ The connection stabilizes, fixates and adjusts the tightness of the contact-connection between the skin surrounding the orifice of the urethral tract of a treated patient and the urine receiving component. The urine receiving component has spring-like characteristics bestowed by “accordion-like” components that enable a urine leak-free contact-connection while minimizing the discomfort caused to the treated patient.
