Product Components
The UroShield® has two primary components: an actuator and a driver.
An AC power adapter with a recharging cable is also supplied.
5.1
The Actuator
The small, lightweight actuator clips onto the urinary catheter after the
catheter’s insertion into the patient's urethra. When the UroShield® is active,
the actuator generates acoustic waves on the surface of the catheter. The
actuator itself does not contact the patient’s skin. The actuator is intended for
single use only: that is, for use with one catheter only (until the catheter is
replaced or for a maximum use for 30 days).
The UroShield® actuator can be used with urinary catheters sized 12, 14, 16,
18, 20, or 22 French.
