My wife and I have to catheterize our 6 year old every 4 hours. He was born with cloacal exstrophy and spina bifida. He has a Mitrofanoff urostomy, which means he has stomach tissue grafted into his bladder that produces mucous in his urine, that must be pulled out with a vacuum or else bladder stones will form, requiring surgery. UroPal actively removes this sediment. We were using just a syringe and a bowl, but my son moved and dumped an entire bowl of urine on my bed. Hence UroPal!
have you ever used a catheter? This system adds a lot of unnecessary weight making it unusable for a child. It is much easier and less cumbersome to just use the catheter without this system.
another epic win dad!
