  • Short-term device for the treatment of urinary incontinence in women
    Publication number: 20120238802
    Abstract: A short term usage device is provided for treating urinary incontinence. The device may extend the length of the urethra from internal to the bladder to external to the outside the body. A proximal component, when external to the body, prevents the device from leaving the urethra and entering into the bladder and prevents the device from leaving the urethra and exiting the body. A distal component, when internal to the bladder, prevents the device from leaving the urethra and exiting the body and prevents the device from leaving the urethra and entering into the bladder. The device is configured with a mechanism to regulate urine flow using physiologically created pressures that are applied to the distal portion of the device.
