Bulkamid® for Surgeon

A urethral bulking agent for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence

Bulkamid is a homogenous hydrophilic gel consisting of 2.5% polyacrylamide and 97.5% water, which allows in-growth and proliferation of blood vessels originating from the periurethral tissue.

What makes Bulkamid different?

Bulkamid does not rely upon a reaction from host tissue to generate its desired effect.

Predictable, controllable and precise technique

Four Cushion Technique: cushions meet at the midline to ensure urethral coaptation

1cm markers on the needle shaft enables precise placement of infections

Rotatable sheath: 360° rotating needle channel allows for a consistent and reproducible procedure

Zero degree urethroscope provides optimal visual guidance with camera and light connections to fit all standard systems

Two 1ml syringes with 0.1ml markers ensure that injecting Bulkamid gel is a simple and easy process

Bulkamid Procedure

Due to the characteristics of Bulkamid, the size of the cushion is directly dependent on the volume of hydrogel injected, making the procedure very precise, predictable and controllable. Watch the video and learn more about performing the Bulkamid technique.
