Risks

Reduced quality of life

Traditional catheters can negatively affect a patient's quality of life. This is due to the use of drainage bags with Foley catheters, or the need to self-catheterise 6-8 times per day with intermittent catheters.

Increased risk of Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)

Catheters are highly susceptible to infections and UTIs are a major issue with both short-term and long-term catheter use.

Decrease in bladder health

Foley catheters continuously drain urine, preventing the natural expansion and contraction of the bladder, which normally occurs during urination. This can result in the loss of bladder function due to the weakening of the bladder muscles through inactivity.

Negative impact on the environment

Single-use plastic waste from Foley and intermittent catheters have a significant impact on the environment. Intermittent catheters alone lead to 206 million liters of waste annually.

cymactive™ has been designed with the patient in mind to provide a better solution

Improve patient quality of life

cymactive™ allows patients to manage the voiding process by closely mimicking natural urination and removes the need for a drainage bag or frequent self-catheterisation.

Minimise the causes of UTIs

cymactive™ works with urethra's natural barrier against infection to minimise the causes of UTIs, thereby reducing the pain, discomfort and unplanned hospital visits they cause annually. cymactive™ can remain in-situ for up to 30 days.

Promote natural bladder function

cymactive™ is designed to facilitate the natural filling and voiding of the bladder to maintain bladder function.

Full-fledged intimate life

cymactive™ allows you to have a fulfilling sex life without restrictions.

How cymactive™ works

cymactive™ introduces a new approach to indwelling catheters, designed to remain securely in-situ for up to 30 days.³

Our patented UroValve™ uses an external magnet to activate a valve on the catheter within the urethra allowing the natural and complete emptying of the bladder at the patient’s convenience.

Entirely internal, cymactive™ is discreet with only two slender removal threads extending from the penis.

This design combines the stability of a Foley catheter with the autonomy and bladder function of an intermittent catheter.
