I didn't see any thread for ROCM so I thought I would start one.
BACKGROUND INFO: Rochester Medical develops and manufactures a broad line of innovative latex-free urinary continence care products for the home care and hospital care markets. The Company markets its products under its own ROCHESTER MEDICAL(R) brand and through private label arrangements.
On May 3, 1999, results from a multi-center 12-month clinical trial announced at the 20th Annual Society of Urodynamics and Female Urology indicated that ROCM's new FEMSOFT(R) Insert is highly effective and has a high degree of patient acceptance and satisfaction. Dr. Larry T. Sirls (Department of Urology, William Beaumont Hospital, Royal Oak, Mich.), one of the principal investigators in the trial, said the FemSoft Insert "will likely become an important treatment option" in physician care for female stress incontinence.
During a separate panel discussion on the range of incontinence treatments at the 20th Annual Society of Urodynamics and Female Urology sessions, Dr. Michael Kennelly (a practicing urologist with McKay Urology Associates in Charlotte, N.C.) said that clinical data from the FemSoft Insert study is very promising: "We may indeed be witnessing the emergence of an effective and truly patient-friendly treatment modality for female stress incontinence."
