sensiTVT-A

No twisting of sling center with possibility of post-operative adjustment

Treatment of Stress Urinary Incontinence

Indication: Surgical treatment of female stress urinary incontinence resulting from

  • urethral hypermobility and/or
  • intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD)

after failed conservative treatment methods.

Design with cutout in center

sensiTVT-A is an adjustable midurethral sling implant for the surgical treatment of female stress urinary incontinence.

  • sensiTVT-A is designed with a material cutout on either side of the center to allow the center to always lie flat – even when lateral sling arms are tilted.
  • Sling’s position can be adjusted post-operatively. Adjustability allows correction of:
    • ongoing incontinence
    • urinary retention
  • The sling’s center is intended to be positioned midurethral, while the lateral sling arms enable the fixation of the sling in the tissue.
  • Support of the female bladder neck.
  • Made of polypropylene mesh, pull-in sutures, adjustment sutures and a detachable pull-in aid.

Features

  • Possible tension adjustment in both directions:
    • cranial direction (tightening) in case of persisting incontinence and
    • caudal direction (loosening) in case of over-correction / urinary retention.
  • Firm, macroporous, biocompatible, monofilament, polypropylene mesh.
  • Protective cover to facilitate the placement of the sling.

Benefits

  • Possibility to adjust the implant postoperatively to improve efficacy without increased risk of complications.
  • Efficient improvement of incontinence in female patients with SUI.
  • The design of sensiTVT-A allows a rotation movement of the sling arms and a plane positioning of the sling below the urethra, which may avoid complications due to curling / twisting of the sling.

Combinable products

Tunnellers

  • Multiple use devices, which are designed to meet the anatomic requirements for implant insertion.
  • A slot at their tip enables the attachment of the sling pull sutures, which are used to pull the implant in place.
  • Tunneller for transobturatoric approach (outside-in / inside-out)
  • Tunneller for retropubic approach

Technical Features

  • Flattened and broad tip to create a slightly broader passage through the tissue to accommodate the sling’s shape.
  • Ergonomically shaped handle to fit the surgeon’s hand.
  • Slot at the tip of the tunneller to connect the sling’s pulling sutures with the tunneller device.
