Surgical implant tested to stop leaks for men after prostate surgery
NCT ID NCT04088331
Summary
This study tested how well a surgically implanted device, called the AMS 800 Artificial Urinary Sphincter, worked for men with stress urinary incontinence, often after prostate surgery. Researchers measured success by how much the device reduced the weight of pads used to catch urine over 24 hours. They followed 145 men for a year to see how many had their leakage cut by half or more and tracked any complications or need for additional surgery.
