Men’s Liberty™ Acute is a revolutionary solution for male urinary management.
Indwelling catheters increase the risk of infection (In the United States, up to 80% of complicated urinary tract infection are attributable to indwelling urinary catheters) which lengthens hospital stays and increases costs. Condom catheters can result in leakage, skin breakdown and often lead to problems with sizing. Men’s Liberty Acute directs urine away from the skin and delivers superior performance with leak protection and patient comfort.
Men’s Liberty™ Acute replaces diapers, condom catheters, and when medically unnecessary, Foley catheters. Its seven-petal Faceplate and Faceplate Seal are easy to apply and forms a seal around the urinary meatus for leak protection. The design easily fits most men and is suitable for retracted, circumcised, and uncircumcised anatomies. Users can expect the first application to last 6-12 hours and the second application to last 24-48 hours.
