For treatment of Female Urinary Stress Incontinence
Incontinence in females _ Pre-positioned sutures enable patient-specific tension adjustment - both cranial and caudal _ Adjustment possible up to five days post-operatively _ Sling covered with PE sleeve for easy placement
The A.M.I. TOA (Trans Obturator Adjustable) and TVA (Trans Vaginal Adjustable) slings are designed for TOT and TVT procedures respectively. It's no longer necessary to rely solely on past experience when adjusting the sling's tension to suit each individual patient. The A.M.I. TVA and TOA slings are equipped with several pre-positioned sutures, whose ends protrude following surgery and can be pulled to enable optimal tension adjustment. _ The TVA / TOA slings are covered with a PE sleeve for easier, less-traumatic placement _ The polypropylene sutures allow for easy pulling and removal By simply pulling on these threads, the tension of the sling can be adjusted up to five days post-operatively with active participation by the patient: _ towards cranial when incontinence is still present; or _ towards caudal when there are signs of urinary retention. Once adjustments have been made accordingly, the sutures are simply pulled out. Correct post-operative adjustment guarantees the procedure's success and the patient's satisfaction. _ The monofilament polypropylene is soft, but firm enough in the lengthwise direction to provide the necessary support _ The pore size allows for seamless tissue integration, thereby reducing risk of infection
