The Designer's Story
Simplicity was designed by an engineer who personally experienced the discomfort and inconvenience of both internal catheters and leg bags after radical prostate surgery.
This is his story...
I underwent radical prostate surgery in 1995.
In recovery, I was given an internal catheter, which was incredibly uncomfortable and limiting to my movements.
The incontinence was bad enough, but I felt the "remedy", the catheter, made the whole experience even worse. I found I couldn't even sit up without great discomfort and embarrassing leakage.
I eventually tried leg bags, but also found them awkward and inconvenient. That's when I decided to use my engineering background to create a system that was more comfortable, dependable, convenient to use and private.
The result of my experimentation and years of design is the Simplicity Collection System. The close-coupled system is the key to its dependability and descreet design.
I truly believe Simplicity will help men, who must live with the challenge of incontinence, return to living the lives they enjoy.
