AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing inflatable artificial sphincters fail to effectively occlude excretory body passages during sudden pressure increases in the abdomen, leading to unintended leakage of fluids.
Method used
The artificial sphincter system incorporates a pressure-sensitive check valve and a semipermeable check valve, along with a stretchable fluid reservoir and a pump with a compressible bulb, to ensure effective occlusion and prevent leakage even under sudden pressure increments.
Benefits of technology
The system effectively maintains occlusion of the excretory body passage during sudden abdominal pressure increases, preventing unintended leakage and enhancing the reliability and service life of the artificial sphincter.
