An apparatus for treating urinary incontinence, comprising a node; a support section adapted for providing urethral support attached to the node; and, an anchoring section adapted for resisting movement of the apparatus attached to the node; wherein the node is no longer than 30% of the entire length of the apparatus comprising the node, support section and the anchoring section together.

Apparatus for the prevention of urinary incontinence in females

An apparatus for treating urinary incontinence, comprising: a node; a support section adapted for providing urethral support attached to the node; and, an anchoring section adapted for resisting movement of the apparatus attached to the node opposite the support section. Optionally, the support section is adapted to treat incontinence according to at least one of: SUTFS, colpo-elevation or colpo-distension.

Apparatuses for the amelioration of urinary incontinence in females.

Disclosed are devices for supporting a prolapsed organ. An exemplary device comprises a ring-like body optionally having a naturally occurring substantially flat and substantially planar compact configuration, the ring-like body configured with a size suitable for insertion into a vagina and to be expanded by a support element such that in the expanded configuration an outer periphery of the ring-like body contacts a portion of the vagina and stretches at least a portion of a prolapsed vaginal wall, thereby substantially alleviating prolapse of at least one pelvic organ. The device optionally includes a support element comprising two moveably connected arms configured to support the ring in the expanded configuration.

Pessaries for prolapse alleviation

An apparatus for treating pelvic organ prolapse, comprising a main body adapted to provide pelvic organ support when inserted into a vagina; and, an applicator for inserting the main body into a vagina.

Apparatus For the Treatment of Feminine Pelvic Organ Prolapse

A contact tray is provided with a tray deck and dividing walls which form groupings of one or more cans and one or more downcomer inlets distributed across the tray deck. The cans have walls that surround vapor openings in the tray deck that permit upward passage of a vapor stream into the cans. Downcomers extend downwardly from the downcomer inlet and are positioned for delivering a liquid stream into the center of cans positioned on a tray deck of an underlying contact tray. Discharge openings are provided in the walls of the cans to allow the liquid stream to exit the cans. The dividing walls direct the exiting liquid stream into the downcomer inlets in the same grouping and prevent or impede the liquid stream from flowing to a low side of the tray deck.

Contact tray and method employing same

A vapor-liquid contact tray (26) is provided with a tray deck (28) having at least one opening for removing liquid from an upper surface of the tray deck and a plurality of vapor passages (44) for allowing vapor to flow upwardly through the tray deck to interact with the liquid on the upper surface. At least one can (34) extends upwardly from the tray deck and is formed by a perimeter wall (36). A downcomer (46) is interposed within the can to provide a passageway for liquid and has an upper inlet (50) for liquid entry and a lower outlet (54) above the tray deck (28) for feeding liquid into the can and onto the tray deck. A plurality of deflector blades (56) are positioned above the tray deck to induce a swirling movement in the vapor ascending into the can. The portion of the tray deck surrounded by the perimeter wall of the can contains sieve holes, valves or other types of vapor passages. The tray may further include a sleeve (76), a plurality of cans (34) of two or more sizes or combinations thereof.
