Abstract

Disclosed is a bladder drainage apparatus comprising a tube including a hollow interior extending through the tube, a flexible anchor, which behaves spring-like, is connected to or at one end of the tube, and a magnetic member connected to or at the other end of the tube. The tube is movable when the magnetic member is engaged by an external magnetic force, thereby creating magnetic traction, andmoving the tube, e.g., outward (from its original position, where the sphincter is typically closed), such that it holds open a sphincter, allovving urine to brain from the bladder, to the urethra, tooutside of the body. When the external magnetic force is released, the magnetic engagement is terminated, and the force of the flexible anchor pulls the tube back to its original position, whereby the sphincter is again closed, and accordingly urine flow is stopped or otherwise limited.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is related to and claims priority to commonly owned U.S. Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 62 / 163,398, entitled "Urine Flow System and Method of Use," filed May 19, 2015, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety . technical field [0003] The present invention The present invention relates to devices for assisting urination. Background technique [0004] Urinary retention is usually caused by neurological disorders or bladder outlet blockage. Neurogenic urinary retention is a condition in which a person is unable to empty the bladder voluntarily due to neurological dysfunction, such as damage to the spinal cord or the nerves innervating the bladder and / or urethral sphincter. Neurogenic urinary retention is caused by inability of the bladder to contract and / or the urethral sphincter to relax. [0005] Neurogenic urinary retention may be permanent or tempora...
