PaceyCuff.com Discussion of Doppler Ultrasound Studies

Medical Value Creation for The Pacey Cuff

The fundamental Value of the Pacey Cuff incontinence device is provided by the preservation of penile blood flow during use. 

      The 100+ year old clamp designs attempted to protect circulation by use of substantial pressure which was moderated by foam cushions. This group of products generally blocks the blood supply when enough pressure is provided to get control of the urethral urine flow.

      The circular cuff designs to date have produced a strangulation effect because of the failure to protect blood flow and thus have pain and limited time of application before relief of the blood supply constriction demands removal.

           Figure 1. The unpopularity of older cuff and clamp designs can be seen here. The users     preference for treatment options have generally avoided the devices because of pain and   circulation issues.


      The prototyping period of Pacey Cuff development produced a great many devices that had variable success with control of the Urethral urine flow but all of the devices used the fenestrated hood design and the exceptionally effective hood covering the blood vessels of the dorsal area. The devices were applied to a degree necessary to control urine and then each was tested with the hand held Doppler device to locate an arterial signal on the right side and the left side. All of the prototypes passed this test confirming that the blood supply was unaffected. This testing does not however prove that every penis will have adequate circulation because the presence of extensive atherosclerotic vascular disease, previous trauma , or disease like Diabetes Mellitus can have unpredictable local effects.

    The clinical application of the device therefore requires some thought, at times, if expected pain free use is not experienced. The user should therefore  inquire of a Physician or Continence nurse specialist for a second opinion.

Innovative "Asept InMed " French Distribution of Pacey Cuff

Pacey Cuff Distribution with Asept Inmed for France and French Territories.

Pacey Medtech is pleased to announce that Pacey Cuff will be distributed in many countries by innovative Toulouse Based Asept Inmed , of Toulouse France ,a MediGlobe Company.

This is an exciting union of forces because the central Vision of changing Post Prostatectomy and Prostate Radiotherapy care is shared by the companies.  We believe that the incontinent patient is often not treated in an optimal way and therefore has major life disruption.

Post Prostatectomy transient and non transient incontinence remains a major health problem world wide. We plan to fill this void and bring patients back to Professional and Psychological normality.

PMT is exploring niche applications in Stroke care where we see potential to replace Condom care and Catheter use in post stroke patients.  The use of the Pacey Cuff during ambulation offers new freedom. Spinal Cord Injury may offer some opportunities for patients that we will discover with our systematic search.

The use of the Pacey Cuff will be explored in other Neurological problems to expand our ability to free patients in many niche applications.

France is a very innovative market for new ideas and this synchs well with Pacey Medtech ambition to create new markets for the Pacey Cuff among the millions of men who have incontinence that is severe and uncontrolled by current devices.

Pacey Cuff Meets the International Continence Society in Phoenix

Pacey Cuff at ICS Phoenix Arizona
Dec  8 - 9 2017

Purchase  at  PaceyCuff.com

The Pacey Cuff was displayed to members of the International Continence Society USA workshop in Phoenix Arizona to good effect.
The clinical need and utility of Pacey Cuff to treat Stress incontinence Post Prostatectomy was confirmed by feedback from attendees .
The Post Prostatectomy management teaching neglects the patient in an important way:

    1. The standard Pelvic Floor Exercise Protocols include referrals to Specialist Physiotherapists who do Pre and Post operative pelvic muscle training for patients . Many argue that the establishment of this training prior to surgery adds a degree of muscular strength that is beneficial post operatively. There would be a logical expectation that this is correct. The vigor of any exercise program probably has an impact on its effect.

   2. During this postoperative recovery period a large number of individuals have transient               (1-12 Months) of incontinence that results in counterproductive isolation and patient confusion . The incontinence aspect has been de-emphasized by Urologists who have a good measure of pride in their abilities. The application of the Pacey Cuff by patients during this period has created the "Confident Continence" that is our primary brand promise. It is clear that patients often take action on there own initiative to manage this leakage by means other than diapers or excessive pad use.

  3. Therefore it is incumbent on Urologists , Physiotherapists , and Continence nurses to include this in a "State of the Art" management program .

 4. Widely studied rates of Post Surgical  incontinence show approximately 15% long term need for the Pacey Cuff for an extended period.
