Abstract

A catheter for treating urinary incontinence in a female individual is provided. The catheter including: (a) a catheter body having an open proximal end (14) and a distal end (16) and being of a length such that when positioned within a urinary tract of the individual the proximal end (14) resides within a bladder of the individual and the distal end (16) extends out of the individual's meatus urinarius, at least a portion of the catheter body (12) being of a sufficiently thin material so as to be in a collapsed state when substantially void of urine, and in an expanded state when filled with urine; (b) a permanent or openable seal (26) being integrally formed with, or attached to, a distal portion (28) of the catheter body (12), the seal being for controlling urine flow out of the distal end (16); and (c) an elastic anchor (36) integrally formed with, or attached to the proximal end (14) of the catheter body (12), the elastic anchor (36) being of a diameter wider than that of an opening of the bladder and being for positioning and anchoring the catheter body within the urinary tract of the individual.
