Boston Scientific AMS 800 Artificial Urinary Sphincter 72400163
The Boston Scientific AMS 800 Artificial Urinary Sphincter is an implantable, fluid-driven device used to treat male stress urinary incontinence. It features a 5.5 cm silicone occlusive cuff, scrotal control pump, and pressure-regulating balloon. The system allows patients to manually void and then automatically re-establish urethral compression for continence.
This three-piece system—cuff, balloon, and pump—is connected via kink‑resistant tubing and replicates natural sphincteric function when activated. The 5.5 cm cuff size ensures adequate compression for average male urethral circumference. After the user activates the pump to urinate, the cuff automatically reinflates to restore continence. The AMS 800 remains the standard for male urinary incontinence with documented long-term satisfaction and high five-year survival rates.
