Boston Scientific AMS 800 Artificial Urinary Sphincter 72400167
The Boston Scientific AMS 800 Artificial Urinary Sphincter is an implantable, fluid-filled device designed to restore continence in men with stress urinary incontinence. It features a 7.5 cm silicone occlusive cuff, control pump, and pressure-regulating balloon. This system allows patients to manually activate urination and automatically re-inflate to maintain continence.
This three-part system—cuff, pump, and balloon—is connected by kink-resistant tubing to mimic natural sphincter function. The 7.5 cm cuff size is tailored for larger urethral circumferences, offering effective urethral compression without overpressure. When the pump is squeezed, the cuff deflates for voiding, then re-inflates for controlled continence. Backed by decades of clinical success, the AMS 800 remains the gold standard for treating male incontinence.
