Bard Medical 004053 Cunningham Clamp, Regular, 2" Length

My pa at Sloan Kettering recommended it. I liked it . I have several different ones. The features on this are good

Works well. Need to replace frequently

I finally have my life back. I had my prostate removed in April of 2009 and leaked from that day on. My urologist has told me that I can have an implant (Urinary Sphincter) put in that can control the leaking but it requires an operation. You wait 4 weeks then go back to the doctor and he will activate it. I read in a survey that there is a possibility that the device may not activate and I guess now you would be looking at another operation. This isn't for me. I use to go through on average 7 pads a day. Now I can use 1 pad all day. This can save you money using this device.After you put the clamp in place you can pretty much forget about it. When put on right there is no pain at all. You would think there would be. If you do have some pain or irritation (which I do once in awhile) just go and readjust it. As in the instructions do not wear it to bed at night.I have been using this product for almost a year. I have three clamps now and rotate them every night. Makes them last longer. To me they are worth every penny. It also saves you the embarrassment of having a pad start leaking and you end up with a big wet spot.

Llego rápido a España en 2 semanas. La pinza cumple los estandares de calidadad. La aconsejo siempre y cuando sea un artículo prescrito por un médico. Estoy muy contento ya que en España se ha dejado de comercializar y llevo toda la vida utilizándolo. A mí modo de ver es el mejor artículo en comparación con todos los demás del mercado. Volveré a comprar. Con el cuidado adecuado duran un año.

This is a very comfortable clamp. I have had incontinence for 26 years. I have used every clamp that has been made. Dr Jackson's J-Clamp is the best ever made, but he quit making them, why, I don't know. There is no patent on this device. Somebody should make and sell it on Amazon. The Cunningham clamp can be made to be water proof. Get white duck tape and carefully cover both sides of clamp with the tape- don't suppress the foam rubber. If you do this right, you will have a clamp that will last a year, and it is sanitary ie the foam rubber will not get soaked in urine.

Needs detailed instructions for use. Suggestions - bend the top and bottom slightly so there is a small gap (About 3/16") just in the middle when you close it to the first notch. Mark the location of the bottom "bump" on the top with a permanent marker to make it easier to line-up. Wrap yourself with a layer of tissue just where the clamp contacts you. Use the lightest pressure needed to control your leakage. Open it every opportunity you have to allow some circulation. Don't wear it any longer than you need to.

Item works pretty well, but should be adjusted from time to time

It doesn't pinch when put on.
