Bringing artificial organs to clinical practice.
Silicon Life develops urological devices and implantable systems, from a balloon-free controlled catheter registered in China to an electronically controlled artificial bladder.
Disposable Sterile Controlled Catheter
One catheter a month. One touch to control.
A balloon-free indwelling urethral catheter with an integrated ball-bead valve. The patient or carer opens the valve to drain the bladder and closes it again afterwards, without an inflation channel or a drainage bag.
Three technologies behind our implantable systems
From catheter to artificial organ
Six programmes extend the catheter platform toward implantable, electronically controlled devices.
Investigational devices. Not approved by any regulatory authority and not available for sale.
