The Inventor
The inventor of U-drain is Mr. George McCarthy from Manchester, England, U.K.
Mr. McCarthy became a Urostomy wearer in 2005 when an operation for Bowel Cancer meant he also had to have his Bladder removed. Mr. McCarthy was introduced to night drainage bags and taught how to use them. He immediately felt there had to be an alternative to this method. After 7 years of research and testing he has developed the U-drain system.
The simplicity of U-drain relieves the day-to-day bind of using night drainage bags.
Mr. McCarthy received treatment from “The Christie” hospital in Manchester, England, U.K. He is now a fundraiser for the Hospital and has raised over £100,000.00 which will help other cancer sufferers to get top-class treatment.
In gratitude he intends for a percentage of income from U-drain to go to the hospital for research & treatment.
