Abstract
A urological device adapted for placement in a urethra of a user for treatment of incontinence includes a stem, an anchor portion connected to a distal end portion of the stem, a bladder retainer connected to a proximal end of the stem, and a urological valve connected to the proximal end of the stem. The urological valve includes a plurality of movable leaflets connected to and extending in a proximal direction way from the proximal end of the stem. The movable leaflets have an at-rest closed configuration adapted to prevent a flow of urine through the stem, and the movable leaflets are adapted to evert in a distal direction to provide the urological valve with an open configuration adapted to allow urine to flow through the stem.
