Urinary sheaths are a treatment option for the management of urinary incontinence but unfortunately their use is not widespread. They are available as one- and two-piece systems, but the one-piece sheath is more commonly used. Adele Brodie outlines the assessment process that should be followed before selecting a sheath. She also offers practical tips for applying a sheath and coping with problems.
