Better Pant™
is a urology undergarment with an internal leg pouch that conceals and
secures the External Collection System in place without leg straps.
|
Better Pant™ is used with an
External Collection System(not included)
including condom catheters, ileoconduit and some Foley catheters.
This urology undergarment has an internal pouch
that conceals and holds a 500ml or 1000ml leg bag securely in place
without the use of the more commonly used leg straps. Leg straps, when
tight, can constrict circulation to the lower leg. The friction from the leg
straps may cause open skin ulcers. At the very least, the leg straps are
very uncomfortable. Eliminating leg straps has been shown to reduce these
negative effects.
Better Pant™ offers the user a higher level of
physical activities without the fear of the leg bag slipping down the
leg and causing an embarrassing accident.
Ambulatory, as well as quadriplegic, paraplegic and
other non-ambulatory individuals have used Better Pant™ with comfort and
security. Better Pant™ is skin friendly, comfortable and easy to use.
Better Pant™ is recommended of use on males.
This Better Pant™ product is designed for adolescents with
a waist of 28"-30". If you are in need of a larger size please

Celeste Bonham, founder and president of Uro Concepts, Inc., developed
the patent pending Better Pant™. Celeste became involved with the urology
market after her father became incontinent due to post-prostate cancer.
Doctors tried to reverse his urinary problem, through two subsequent
operations with no success. Her father, a retired Lt. Colonel in the Air
Force, became depressed having to wear diapers due to incontinence. After a
couple of years, he learned about external collection systems. Soon after
using his first external collection system, his depression vanished because
he was no longer wearing diapers.
Although the external collection system was a vast improvement from diapers,
it was still far from being perfect. There were problems with that system as
well. The external collection system used leg straps to hold the leg bag in
place which cut off the circulation to his leg and allowed the leg bag to
slip when it became full. The possibility of the leg bag falling down and
creating a urinary mishap was a concern.
Celeste, wanting to further improve her father’s quality of life, researched
the urology market. She discovered how to effectively improve the existing
external collection products. Better Pant™ is the direct result of those
improvements. Her father loves Better Pant™ and we know you will too.
Celeste has also invented I-Relax, an eye care product that has been
clinically proven to reduce eyestrain for computer users. I-Relax is
projected to be marketed in the 4th quarter of 2006.
Celeste is also in the process of developing:
- A female Device for use with external collection systems.
- Undergarment for use with Nephrosystomy system.
