Features
Rochester Medical WideBand Male External Catheters
- 70% more adhesive than traditional self-adhering catheters
- All-silicone material is 100% latex-free, clear and breathable
- Prevents urine migration and build-up
- Several size options available
Product Overview
Rochester Medical WideBand Male External Catheters
WideBand Male External Catheters
Specially Designed To Stay On
WideBand Male External Catheters are the new standard for male external catheters. For the first time, adhesive is built into nearly the entire sheath wall. It has 70% more adhesive area than is found in the self-adhering styles developed in the 80's. Rochester Medical Corporation has patented this advanced manufacturing process, providing more security without requiring more aggressive adhesive.
The distinctive design of the Wide Band catheter involves more than just an extended length of adhesive area. WideBand is the only catheter with its adhesive placement beginning just behind the glans. This forward-placement of the
adhesive is patented and provides two important features:
- Helps prevent urine migration up the penis shaft, which results in premature removal
- Helps prevent urine build-up around the head of the penis, which results in catheter blow-off.
The Wide Band's unique features - 100% silicone construction, expanded adhesive area, and patented adhesive placement - combine to make it the New Standard in Self-Adhering Male External Catheters.
- Expanded adhesive area protecting against unexpected, or premature need to change the catheter
- Patented, forward-placement of adhesive to prevent urine migration and build-up
- Hypoallergenic, nonsensitizing adhesive built into catheter sheath
- Silicone that, unlike latex, is odorless and has superior breathability properties
- Clear sheath allowing for ease of inspection and enhanced skin integrity
- Kink-resistant design to ensure continuous urine flow
- An advanced, soft, silicone material to help reduce frictional irritation and maximize comfort
Health care professionals need medical devices they can count on. They expect male external catheters to remain in place, to make skin care easier, and to ensure patient comfort.
Suppliers can recommend the Wide Band to their customers with confidence, knowing that it provides increased security in a product made with the latest technology.
Those who wear the Wide Band can appreciate the security provided by a larger adhesive area, plus the safety and comfort of clear, breathable silicone.
Security: An extra wide adhesive area provides added reliability, so the catheter stays in place.
Safety: Breathable, clear silicone promotes healthy skin and complements good skin care.
Comfort: Soft, conforming silicone makes it easy to wear, even during the most active days.

Describe Yourself:
Hard Core Diver.
Average Health.
As a diver in a dry suit, there is no quick run to the john availible at 70'. Pee Valves attached to male external Catheters are a divers best friend. That is as long as it has a good seal.
While a leak on a regular user of this product might be embarrassed, If mine leaks I get to deal with damp undergarments in a suit pressed against me for up to several hours, and on a dive boat most of the time it is not an envronment conducive to doing laundry.
Rocherster Wide Bands have additional adhesive to insure a good seal even if the fit might be a bit off. Used in conjucture with Smith-Nephew Skin Prep wipes and Unisolve adhesive remover, the seal is one less thing one has to think about when working or playing at the bottom of the sea.

These are great. I have super sensitive skin and these don't cause issues for me. They stay on for days and even work well if I sweat a lot. It's always best to change them daily but they work well if you can't.

Cadillac of Catheters
Pros:
Lightweight.
Safe.
Easy Storage.
Sturdy.
Cons:
Packaging.
Easy to apply when everything is up and at 'em, but works fine either way. Squeeze for tighter seal. Goes on and stays on. Glue to the tip means less leak-prone. Little crimping.
Packaging can adhere to catheter in box, messing up the rolled-up tip and exposing adhesive. Just call company for refund on duds that are mis-packaged.
Clean and dry skin before applying.

Won't accidently come off
Pros:
Sturdy.
Best Uses:
Bladder Problems.
Describe Yourself:
MS.
Wash with Colgate Octagon soap prior to using this catheter. All other soaps have softeners and lubricants which caused the catheter to fall off. Octagon soap is pure soap and available in most stores or on Amazon.com. It says laundry soap but is very gentle. I used to use Ivory soap for the same purpose but they started to add glycerin and had to change to Octagon which is just as gentle. My catheter NEVER comes off anymore!

How do I know if this is the right product for my 89 yr old father? How does it work? How does one measure for size? Are there different choices of receptacle size? He has to use a urinal repeatedly through the night which disrupts his sleep. Also, he fears going any where due to limited bladder control. Is this product right for him?

He'll get better sleep with an external catheter and bed bag. Only precaution is that the clamp on the line should attach to something on the bed like the lower mattress or lower sheet. That way the bag remains upright which eliminates back pressure. You should ask for samples to find the right size. 29mm is medium and fits many

There are different choices for receptacle sizes one must find a leg bag system, that is also available on this website for purchase. I would recommend contacting allegro medical customer service reps for a measuring tool that comes along with the package. If you decide to buy this product. I am a paraplegic and find this product to be very useful for long trips and for bladder control techniques. I hope this helps.

If you don't want to learn to use a foley catheter, this works great. This particular one is very sticky, so there are less accidents. You'll probably need to get something like "REMOVE" wipes to remove the glue residue. When it comes to size, you should probably buy a few different sizes to try them. Yes, there are different sizes of receptacles. I use a 2000cc bag for night time. There are numerous leg bags available in different sizes. If you keep track of the amount of urine in the urinal, you can figure out the size you nee. The doctor gave me everything to start, including a FOLEY CATHETER HOLDER LEGBAND in order to hold it to my leg, and keep it from pulling at the catheter. I added an 18" extension tube to give me more room to move at night. The tubes that come with the bags never seem to be long enough. You might talk to the doctor, since mine never suggested these until I asked him specifically. then he went in the other room and came out with several for me to try for size. (Not all brands are the same.) There are videos available online that actually show you how to use them. (Google: male external condom catheter instruction video.) Saying all that, after using different ones for a few years, this particular model is the best I tried, and causes the least irritation.

Measure around the penile shaft in mm then order the size closest. Also try elastacon tape to attach it as it is easier to work with. He can attach it to a leg bag directly or with a length of plastic tubing.

The manufacturer recommends 24 hours max. Removal before bathing is a good time to change.

Planning a 2 week vacation which means about 22 hours of car travel. Not sure how these work and how many to order. He puts out a large amount of urine at night. Walking is a problem, so he can not make it to the rest rooms without an accident.

Probably best to order several sizes to start, or ask your doctor. He may have some samples for you to try. I think free samples may be available online so you can check size. But these are the best ones I found.

They are condom catheters, which means they are applied just like a condom. They work well with trips in cars and must have a leg bag system attached to the condom catheter for the urine to collect.

They go on just like a condom, but I always use a posey band to help hold it on. Use a leg bag and check for kinks, should be good to go.

My 91 year old uncle used them successfully on his own for most of last year. He was taught how to put them on when in rehab. but often would go through two or three in order to get it successfully attached. Because of a constant drip, many times the adhesive would get wet and he would have to throw the $1.65 condom away and try again. He would not let me put them on him. As demensia got worse, he couldn't remember how to put them on or maybe forgot, and we would have one wet seat after another. They were great while he could put them on properly, but now it's back to changing diapers every few hours.
