  • Patent number: 9199060
    Abstract: A non-bladder invasive urethral catheter system with a urethral balloon element for relieving urinary incontinence. The catheter system is more convenient and less intrusive compared to bladder catheters and permits the catheter to remain in the urethra during urination. The catheter system blocks urine flow and leakage in the urethra by means of the urethral balloon element while inserted within the urethra. Two or more different urethral catheters are utilized that are differentiated by the positioning of a urethral balloon element on the elongated body of the urethral catheter. Through the placement of the urethral balloon element in different positions in the urethra with the different catheters, the trauma produced by a urethral balloon element to a particular area of the urethra is reduced or eliminated, allowing long term use of a catheter in the urethra.

  • Patent number: 8827985
    Abstract: A non-bladder invasive urethral catheter system is provided as a system of apparatuses that provide a means relieving a user's urinary incontinence issues while reducing localized compression to the walls of their urethra. The non-bladder invasive urethral catheter system provides a more convenient and less intrusive means of enabling individuals suffering from urinary incontinence to live an ordinary life. The non-bladder invasive urethral catheter system provides the user with comfort and increased mobility and permits the user to maintain the indwelling catheter during urination. The apparatus blocks urine flow and leakage while installed within a user. The non-bladder invasive urethral catheter system utilizes several urethral catheters that are differentiated by the positioning of a urethral balloon element on the elongated body of the urethral catheter. Through the substitution of the differentiated urethral catheters, the user is able to reduce the trauma to a particular area of their urethra.
