AB - Urinary incontinence can have a significant detrimental effect on a person’s body image and self-esteem because it undermines society’s norms relating to control of the body. This can be further complicated by the use of devices to control urinary incontinence. Sheath drainage systems are the most common method of managing urinary incontinence in men. A discreet, reliable sheath drainage system can have both physical and psychological benefits. A full continence assessment is paramount for a successful outcome as there are several potential problems associated with this method of management. There are many products available, so the health professional needs a comprehensive knowledge of both products and application techniques. The Sims Portex Transfix range of all-silicone self-adhesive sheaths have many benefits and offer a reliable form of sheath management for male urinary incontinence.
