Understanding the PureWick System

To fully appreciate the value of PureWick for home use, it's crucial to understand the components of the PureWick system and how they work together. The entire system revolves around three main components: The PureWick Urine Collection System, the PureWick Female External Catheter, and the PureWick Accessory Kit.

The PureWick Urine Collection System

The PureWick Urine Collection System is a crucial part of the PureWick system. This device uses a low-pressure suction mechanism to gently draw urine away from the body and into a collection canister. It's designed to be gentle, yet effective, ensuring a dry environment to reduce the risk of skin irritation and infection. The system can be conveniently used for both short-term and long-term care situations, such as post-surgical recovery or managing conditions like urinary incontinence.

The PureWick Female External Catheter

The PureWick Female External Catheter is a non-invasive wick made of soft, flexible fabric. It is positioned between the labia and gluteal muscles, where it pulls urine away from the body and into the collection canister. This wick should be replaced every 8 to 12 hours, and each box contains 30 wicks. The design ensures comfort and ease of use, making it an excellent choice for anyone seeking a non-invasive solution for urinary incontinence.

The PureWick Accessory Kit

The Accessory Kit is an integral part of the PureWick system. It includes a 2000cc collection canister with lid, pump tubing, and collector tubing with an elbow connector. These accessories are vital for the smooth operation of the PureWick system and ensure that the urine is effectively collected and disposed of without any leakage or discomfort. While the Accessory Kit is sold separately, it's highly recommended to add it to your AutoShip order to ensure you have all the necessary equipment for the efficient operation of your PureWick system.

In the next sections, we'll delve deeper into the benefits of using PureWick at home, how to use the PureWick system, and the cost and purchase information. As our expert at ProMed DME, Mike Breslin, often says, understanding the system is the first step towards a better, more comfortable life.

Benefits of Using PureWick Systems at Home

Having the PureWick system at home brings a host of benefits for women dealing with urinary incontinence. Let's explore these benefits to fully understand why PureWick for home use is a game-changer.

Improved Sleep and Reduced Risk of Nighttime Falls

One of the primary reasons why PureWick is widely appreciated by users and caregivers is its contribution to improved sleep quality. According to Maryann B., a PureWick System User, the system has significantly reduced nighttime trips to the bathroom, leading to better sleep. This is an especially important benefit for older adults, as frequent nighttime bathroom trips increase the risk of falls and related injuries.

The PureWick System is designed to continuously collect urine, allowing users to sleep through the night without interruptions. This not only enhances restful sleep but also reduces the risk of nighttime falls, making PureWick an excellent choice for home use.

Elimination of Need for Incontinence Pads

The PureWick system effectively eliminates the need for incontinence pads. As Shelley A., a PureWick System User, notes, "After surgery in April, I have been bedridden. To be able to stay in bed and not wear any incontinence pads has been wonderful."

Incontinence pads can be uncomfortable and require frequent changes, which can be difficult for bedridden individuals or those who have mobility issues. With the PureWick system, users can enjoy comfort and freedom from the constant worry of changing pads.

Reduction in Laundry

Another significant benefit of using PureWick at home is the reduction in laundry. Patricia T., a PureWick System User, aptly shared, "I am so pleased with the PureWick™ System. No more sheets and towels to wash every day. Thank you, PureWick™!"

Dealing with urinary incontinence can lead to an increase in laundry, including bed sheets and clothing. However, the PureWick system collects urine before it can soil any fabrics, significantly cutting down on laundry chores.

In conclusion, the PureWick system offers several substantial benefits for home use, including improved sleep, reduced risk of nighttime falls, elimination of the need for incontinence pads, and a reduction in laundry. These benefits collectively contribute to an enhanced quality of life for those dealing with urinary incontinence. As always, we at ProMed DME are here to support you in managing your health conditions effectively. For any queries or concerns, do not hesitate to contact us.

Are you ready to start using PureWick at home? Great! We're here to guide you through the process. Here's a simple step-by-step guide on how to use the PureWick system at home.

Placement and Removal of PureWick Female External Catheter

The PureWick Female External Catheter is designed to be comfortably positioned between the labia and gluteal muscles. Never insert the PureWick female external catheter into the vagina, anal canal, or other body cavities. To ensure effective urine collection, the wick should be positioned correctly.

1. Start by cleaning and drying the area.
2. Position the catheter carefully between the labia and gluteal muscles.
3. Connect the wick to the urine collection system.

To remove the PureWick Female External Catheter, simply disconnect the tubing and gently remove the wick from the body. Remember to keep the area clean and dry after removal to prevent any skin irritation.

Charging and Using the PureWick Urine Collection System

The PureWick Urine Collection System is designed to be efficient and easy-to-use. The system is powered by a rechargeable battery, allowing for seamless use at home without any power interruptions.

Here's how to charge and use the PureWick Urine Collection System:

1. Before use, ensure the system is fully charged. Plug in the provided charger and allow the system to charge completely.
2. Once charged, connect the PureWick Female External Catheter to the system.
3. The system will automatically start the suction once the catheter is connected.
4. The collected urine will be stored in the collection canister, which can be easily emptied when needed.

The PureWick Urine Collection System is designed to ensure a dry environment, reducing the risk of skin irritation and infection, and offering improved comfort for users.

Cost and Purchase Information for PureWick Systems

When considering the PureWick system for home use, it's important to understand the cost, where to purchase, and potential insurance coverage.

Pricing of PureWick Systems

The cost of the PureWick system can vary depending on the specific items you need. A starter set, which includes the PureWick™ Urine Collection System and a box of 30 PureWick™ Female External Catheters, can be purchased for $534 when signing up with a new account. That the catheters are single-use, so ongoing costs should be factored into your budget.

How to Purchase PureWick Systems

Purchasing a PureWick system is straightforward. You can buy the system directly from our ProMed DME site without the need for a prescription. However, as Mike Breslin, our ProMed DME expert, suggests, it's always a good idea to consult with healthcare professionals before making a decision.

Information on Insurance Coverage for PureWick Systems

Insurance coverage for the PureWick system is not a simple 'yes' or 'no'. It largely depends on your individual health plan benefits and medical necessity. Most health insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid, do cover intermittent urinary catheter products, but you must have a valid prescription. Some insurance plans may also require additional documentation such as doctor’s progress notes or prior authorization before approval of catheter coverage.

For the PureWick system, your private insurance provider may consider covering the system depending on your individual health plan benefits and medical necessity. However, there is no guarantee of coverage. Always check with your individual insurance provider to understand the specifics of your coverage.

We at ProMed DME understand that navigating the landscape of insurance coverage for medical supplies can be challenging. That's why we're here to simplify the process and make it as straightforward as possible. If you need assistance or have any questions, don't hesitate to contact us. We're here to support you every step of the way.
