Definitions

  • an external urinary catheter comprises a thin, elastomeric fluid-impermeable sheath that is open at one end and merges at the other end into a narrow drainage tube that is attached to a collection bag, which may be attached to the leg of the wearer of the bag.
  • the sheath which is applied to the user's penis, is essentially a condom. To work properly, the sheath must be securely fastened to the penis using an adhesive.
  • an adhesive is applied to the inner surface of the sheath to allow the catheter to be securely fastened.
  • the sheath is rolled-up in a number of successive windings such that the adhesive on its inner surface is entirely enclosed in the windings so that the adhesive does not adhere to its outer surface.
  • To apply the sheath it is unrolled slightly until the layer of adhesive on the inner surface is exposed.
  • the sheath is positioned on the penis and the layer of adhesive is brought into contact with the skin and the unwinding is completed.
  • Silicone is typically used to make the sheaths because of low skin irritation, limited creep, shape retention, and nonstick properties.
  • the adhesive is typically a pressure sensitive adhesive, which easily releases from the sheath when in the rolled-up state. This release effect of the pressure sensitive adhesive from the sheath presents a difficulty in sheath design. To have an effective sheath, the adhesive must attach strongly to the inner surface of the sheath but not to the outer surface. Additionally, the adhesive must attach securely and, preferably, comfortably to the wearer.
  • US Patent 5,176,666 describes how to adhere a pressure sensitive adhesive to a dipped silicone sheath. This is accomplished by overcoating a non-cured silicone sheath on a mandrel where adhesive has already been applied. The silicone on the mandrel with adhesive is then cured, which creates a physical binding between the silicone and the adhesive.
  • US Patent 5,779,964 applies a pressure sensitive adhesive to the outside of the sheath, which is transferred to the inside after application of a surface preparation and rolling of the sheath to effect the transfer.
  • WO2006027349 discloses a method for attaching an adhesive to the inside of a cured silicone sheath using an oxidative treatment.
  • Silicone adhesives have also been used; however, these readily attach to the silicone sheath on both the inner and outer surface upon rolling. A special release layer must be applied to the outer surface of the sheath to prevent the silicone adhesive from adhering to it once in the rolled-up position.
  • U.S. Patent 5,376,085 discloses a method of making a male external catheter with a strip of adhesive where the adhesive is attached to a mandrel and then overcoated with the silicone rubber, which is subsequently vulcanized.
  • the sheaths of catheters made from these methods wrinkle and leak. They can also be uncomfortable for the patient.
  • an adhesive that securely bonds to the inner surface of the sheath and readily releases from the outer surface of the sheath, which is wrinkle resistant and leak free sheath that is securely and preferably, comfortably, attached to the user.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide such a sheath using an adhesive article to affect attachment.
  • the present invention provides an external catheter with a wrinkle resistant sheath that reduces the possibility of leakage using an adhesive article comprised of either a silicone adhesive and pressure sensitive non- silicone adhesive or a foam strip and pressure- sensitive non-silicone adhesive or combination thereof.
  • the objects of the present invention are obtained by adding an adhesive article 240 to a sheath 210.
  • the adhesive articles 240 is comprised of a foam strip 243 that is attached to a strip of pressure sensitive non-silicone adhesive 247.
  • the foam strip 243 of the adhesive article 240 may be attached to the inner surface 230 of the sheath 210 during the curing of the sheath material, which is typically an elastomer such as silicone.
  • the adhesive article 240 is comprised of a silicone adhesive strip 245 that is attached to a strip of pressure sensitive non-silicone adhesive 247.
  • the silicone adhesive strip 245 may be attached to the inner surface 230 of the sheath 210 by rolling the sheath 210 onto the silicone adhesive strip 245 side of adhesive article 240.
  • the adhesive article is comprised of the silicone adhesive strip 245 that is attached to a strip of pressure sensitive non-silicone adhesive 247, it may be applied directly to the user prior to attachment to the sheath 210. This two-piece system was not previously available for silicone male external catheters.
  • the adhesive article 240 may be comprised of one or more layers of a foam strip 243, a silicone adhesive 245, and a non- silicone adhesive 247.
  • the sheath 210 may be made by injecting the elastomer into a form or dipping a form into an elastomeric material. The sheath 210 may then be rolled onto the adhesive article 240 or may be bonded when it is injected into a form in which the adhesive article 240 has been placed.
  • the adhesive article 240 is comprised of the foam strip 243 and pressure sensitive non-silicone adhesive 247, the elastomer (e.g., silicone) seeps into the foam which traps the elastomer in its "open cells" or bonds to the silicone adhesive.
  • a pressure sensitive non-silicone adhesive 247 is then attached to the foam strip 243 during a separate manufacturing process using coating, lamination or other common methods, which are known to those skilled in the art.
  • the adhesive can also be added in an integral manufacturing step where the adhesive, foam and catheter material is added in succession or simultaneously to accomplish the desired product.
  • the sheath 210 which may be made from any thin, flexible, elastomeric, moisture-impermeable material, such as latex rubber or silicone rubber, is a tube-like shape with a constricted downstream end portion adapted to receive the collection tube 250 that transfers the urine into a collection bag 260.

  • the foam is prepared with polyoxyethylene, polyisocyanates, water and certain surfactants and has an exceptionally fine, uniform, soft, hydrophilic cell structure. It is low density, open cell or semi-open cell in structure, and has an extreme affinity for aqueous fluids. Use of an absorbent foam aids in the reduction of leakage.

  • the silicone adhesive 245 is from 0.01 mm to 0.5 mm in thickness. The width is dependent upon the length of the sheath. It may be as wide as necessary to accomplish the object of the invention. For example, in those patients with an inverted penis, the silicone adhesive 245 may be up to 90% of the length of the sheath 210. It may be as thin as desired, provided it is able to securely fasten the adhesive article 240 to the sheath 210. When used as a two-piece system or to attach a condom, the user's preference will determine the size. One skilled in the art will recognize that it will be substantially the same size as the foam strip 243 or pressure sensitive non- silicone adhesive 247 adhered to it.
  • the pressure sensitive non-silicone adhesive 247 may be any adhesive that is currently used to attach medical devices, e.g., wounds dressings and ostomy appliances, to the skin. It may be an acrylic adhesive or a hydrocolloid adhesive. Preferably, it is a hydrocolloid adhesive, which absorbs liquid, prevents leakage, and maintains a moist environment around the adhered skin.
