Harex – medical device for the management of male urinary incontinence

Medical device designed to improve the quality of life of men suffering from urinary incontinence.

Harex® has been developed to improve the quality of life of men suffering from urinary incontinence. It has been designed taking into account the anatomy of the penis, so that by placing Harex® behind the glans (head of the penis) and by gentle pressure on the urethra, it prevents and controls involuntary urine leakage. The proper placement of Harex® is achieved with the Urethral Pressure Pad (D) on the lower part of the penis shaft, where the urethra is located. At the same time, the flexible design of the belt that encircles the head of the penis and the lack of pressure on the sides of the penis ensure free blood circulation with Harex®.

Harex® is made of medical grade plastic materials and tested not to absorb liquids. It does not contain any metallic parts to ensure it goes unnoticed when passing through metal detectors (e.g. in airports or train stations). The set includes a plastic case (washable) for transporting and/or storing the device.

SIZE

  • Outer dimensions: 48 mm x 54 mm (4.8 cm x 5.4 cm)
  • Belt Width: 18 mm (1.8 cm)
  • Distance between the urethral pressure pad in its upper position & the belt: 8 mm (0.8 cm)
  • Weight: 18 g
