Features
Rochester Medical WideBand Male External Catheters - Rochester Medical
- 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 - Rochester Medical
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.

I pull foreskin back and roll catheter up shaft, then roll foreskin with catheter back down shaft. This gives extra anti leak security. This very helpful when I wear leg bag high on my thigh.

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!

Best Uses:

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.

Describe Yourself:
Elderly.
The only thing my dad experienced was when hairs were stuck to it it was painful when removing the catheter. Subsequently we knew to trim as much of the hair down there as possible and to use some petroleum jelly except for about the last inch from the tip. Worked great on a recent trip of 1700 miles and back.

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.

BUY: The leg bag, prep and removal wipes, and the funnel. His penis head should fit into the funnel and the sticky tubing should not contact his penis head. Also, sitting to urinate tends to get the tubing creased so urine cannot make it to the bag. In my case the tubing and funnel tube need to be larger to handle the volume. Over all it is a good product. Remember to keep the leg bag tab pointed away from your ankle or leg.

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.

If the penis head fits fully into the funnel and the sticky tubing does not contact the penis head, it should be a good fit. Use the prep material generously as well as the removal material(sep. sales). The only issue I had with it was the funnel base and tube was to small to handle the urine flow in my case. Be sure the bag clip is closed and points away from your ankle. (worked best for me that way)

I didn't like diapers, since they always leaked and were so uncomfortable. Too messy. These work better, and are so much cleaner.

Male exterior catheters - how exactly are these used/attached? I am a caregiver and before purchasing want to be sure this would work well for trips in car or visiting.

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.

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.
