MALE EXTERNAL CATHETER INCLUDING NONWOVEN FABRIC - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240016653 titled 'MALE EXTERNAL CATHETER INCLUDING NONWOVEN FABRIC

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a fluid collection device designed to receive and collect fluid from a user's penis. The device includes a sheath with an opening at one end to receive the urethral opening of the penis, and a chamber to collect the fluid. The sheath has two layers - a first layer made of nonwoven fabric and a second layer made of a fluid permeable multilayer fabric. The device also includes an aperture near the other end of the sheath to connect to a tube for fluid communication.

  • The device is a fluid collection device for the penis.
  • It includes a sheath with an opening to receive the urethral opening of the penis.
  • The sheath has two layers - a nonwoven fabric layer and a fluid permeable multilayer fabric layer.
  • The device has a chamber to collect the fluid.
  • It also includes an aperture to connect to a tube for fluid communication.

Potential Applications:

  • Medical procedures requiring fluid collection from the penis.
  • Research studies involving fluid analysis from the penis.
  • Treatment of conditions that require monitoring or collection of penile fluids.

Problems Solved:

  • Provides a hygienic and convenient way to collect fluid from the penis.
  • Prevents spillage or leakage of fluids during collection.
  • Allows for easy and controlled collection of penile fluids.

Benefits:

  • Reduces the risk of contamination or infection during fluid collection.
  • Provides a comfortable and secure fit for the user.
  • Enables efficient and accurate collection of penile fluids for analysis or treatment.


Original Abstract Submitted

an example fluid collection device includes a sheath at least partially defining a chamber sized and dimensioned to receive at least a portion of a penis of a user therein. the sheath includes a proximal end region defining an opening configured to receive at least a urethral opening of a penis and a distal end region opposite to the proximal end region. the sheath also includes a first layer and a second layer. the first layer includes at least a nonwoven fabric extending at least partially between the proximal end region and the distal end region. the second layer includes a fluid permeable multilayer fabric at least partially positioned between the first layer and the chamber. the fluid collection device also includes an aperture proximate to the distal end region configured to receive or secure to a tube effective to provide fluid communication between the chamber and the tube.
