U-Control
|
|
A
sophisticated, yet simple to use, battery-operated unit, U-Control enables
patients to self-train with prescribed exercises, at home, to re-educate
pelvic muscles for better urinary or fecal control.
Two LEDs cue patients to tense or relax either for 5 or 10 seconds.
Patients view their progress on an ascending or descending bargraph scale
or 15 LEDs and listen for rising or falling variations in a continuous
tone.
U-Control has an adjustable threshold setting to enable health
professionals and patients to revise and report on their training programs
as they progress.
Patients use a comfortable, reusable vaginal or rectal sensor in
combination with simple biofeedback exercises to improve bladder and bowel
function by:
- holding
a steady LED readout or tone.
- intensifying
muscle contractions above the threshold level
- repeating
a preset number of exercises
- striving
for specific LED readings or tones
