A system for managing female incontinence includes a body of biocompatible material configured to fit between the labia minora and the vestibule floor, the body having a surface configured to occlude the urethral meatus, a first adhesive layer disposed on at least a first portion of the surface and configured to provide a sealing engagement between the body and the urethral meatus, and a second adhesive layer disposed over the first adhesive layer and configured to provide a sealing engagement between the body and the urethral meatus, wherein the second adhesive layer is removable from the first adhesive layer.

Systems and methods for incontinence control

A system for managing female incontinence includes a body of biocompatible material configured to fit between the labia minora and the vestibule floor, the body having a surface configured to occlude the urethral meatus, an adhesive carried on at least a first portion of the surface and configured to provide a sealing engagement between the body and the urethral meatus, and a substance carried by at least one of the body and the adhesive and configured for controlling the odor of the general vaginal-urethral area of a female.

Disclosed is a brachytherapy seed deployment system, for use in any of a variety of medical procedures such as radiation treatment of the prostate gland. The system includes a number of brachytherapy seed deployment needles, each preloaded with brachytherapy seeds in patterns and activities predetermined for a unique patient. The seeds are contained in transparent tubular sleeves, thereby allowing direct visualization of the brachytherapy seeds and spacers, so that the seed pattern may be inspected at the clinical site. A releasable retainer prevents accidental brachytherapy seed loss. The system additionally includes shipping containers, separately accessible calibration seeds and a display stand for use at the clinical site. Methods are also disclosed.

Brachytherapy seed deployment system

A cardioplegia delivery system which includes a first delivery unit adapted for connection in a manner allowing delivery of cardioplegia fluid to a patient's heart during surgery. A second delivery unit may be added to the cardioplegia delivery system. The second delivery unit includes a heat exchanger for controlling the temperature of the cardioplegia fluid. The second delivery unit may be connected during the surgical procedure to allow conversion from warm cardioplegia delivery to cold cardioplegia.

Cardioplegia delivery system and method for converting from warm

A cardioplegia delivery device and method of use for delivering warm or cold cardioplegia fluid to the heart of a patient. The delivery device includes an air chamber having a housing with an integral pressure relief valve for diversion of cardioplegia fluid if the fluid pressure within the housing exceeds a predetermined pressure. The air chamber includes a membrane and one-way valve located near the top of the housing for removal of air from the cardioplegia fluid. The delivery device may include an integral heat exchanger for controlling the temperature of the cardioplegia fluid.
