This is a product that eliminates the concept of “urine leakage” in the first place by receiving unintentionally flowing urine through the contact bladder “TIMESHIFT”, which is a second bladder. This product is not a type that absorbs urine like diapers or pads, but instead traps urine in a bag, so there is no odor, and since urine does not come into contact with the skin, it is hygienic and does not cause discomfort. The biggest feature is the feeling of wearing. Because it is made of a material that is overwhelmingly softer than any other surface on the human body and far more stretchable than any skin, it feels as if it is a part of your body, and you can continue to live the same active life as before. Masu. Last year, we conducted an experiment to evaluate the
effectiveness and QoL of our products at Kanazawa University Hospital with the cooperation of patients who had undergone prostate surgery.

I don’t want anyone to say they spend their time in diapers. It’s not an exaggerated device. Wearing pants as part of your body and using them to relieve yourself. Grieving over the functions you’ve lost won’t change anything, but it would be better if you could build a second body to compensate for the functions you lost, which is the urge to urinate. ” (Columnist Yuji Kohtari)

Next I’m going to try a round on the golf course. ” (Mr. O, 70s) ■Results of a demonstration experiment at a university hospital Starting in May of last year, a 6-month demonstration experiment was conducted at the Kanazawa University Hospital on patients who had undergone prostate surgery, and we confirmed that TIMESHIFT’s urinary incontinence care We were able to confirm the effectiveness.
