“I am delighted to be participating in the VESAIR Clinical Study. SUI is not life-threatening, but if left untreated, it can greatly diminish a woman’s Quality of Life. Having a non-surgical option would be a great alternative for the nearly 1 in 2 women over the age of 50, who suffer from this condition” said Benjamin T. Larson, MD, Principal Investigator for the VESAIR Clinical Study.

About Stress Urinary Incontinence and the Vesair Bladder Control System

Women with Stress Urinary Incontinence(SUI) typically experience sudden increases in bladder pressure during physical movement, for example coughing, laughing, sneezing, or during exercise. When this increased bladder pressure exceeds the ability of the urethral sphincter to withstand pressure, leakage occurs. Unlike currently available SUI treatments that focus on improving the urethral closure force, the Vesair Bladder Control System is designed to reduce rapid increases in bladder pressure through the placement of a compressible air-filled balloon in the bladder. The balloon acts like a “shock-absorber” to slow rapid changes in pressure and reduce leakage. The uninflated balloon is placed into the bladder through the urethra and subsequently inflated. Balloon placement is performed during an in-office procedure that does not require anesthesia. When necessary, the balloon is deflated and removed in a similar in-office procedure. Most women manage their SUI with absorbent pads and are reluctant to undergo surgery for a variety of reasons. To learn more about the VESAIR Clinical Trial visit; www.vesairstudy.com.
