The Aware is a pelvic floor stimulator for use in treating urge, stress and mixed urinary incontinence (UI).
Electrical stimulation is used to retrain and
strengthen weak pelvic muscles and improve bladder control. Numerous
studies indicate that pelvic floor stimulation has a success rate of
60-80% in treating or improving UI and typically no significant side
effects.
Stimulation works by eliciting a combination effect of
sensation and muscle contraction that helps improve muscle strength and
re-learn natural reflexes. Depending upon the type of UI, different
electrical parameters are used, since each type has its own effector
mechanisms. Urge UI is treated with short-term, maximal stimulation;
stress UI is typically treated with longer-term stimulation of lower
intensity. The Aware PFS features pre-set control settings for urge,
stress and mixed UI, as well as the ability to completely change and
save all settings.
The Aware PFS has built-in safety features to ensure patient protection at all times:
Safety Lock: Once the desired
stimulation intensity (amplitude) has been reached, the instrument will
automatically lock so that there can be no inadvertent change. To
“unlock” the intensity, simply press on the up or down arrow, and reset
as appropriate.
Alarm: If the electrode is not making a good muscle contact, an “Electrode Alarm” will be displayed.
