SCL Health
As a surgeon, we look for three main goals, safety, efficiency, and outcomes. The safety of T-SPeC® is great. It is easy to use as long as you follow the protocol – the step by step instructions is reliable. The efficiency, in less than ten minutes, you will be out of the O.R. And, the outcomes are consistent with all the procedures I have done with T-SPeC®.
As a surgeon, I have done the older technique, which is a blind technique by placing a suprapubic tube without a real localization of the bladder, but just by palpation. With the T-SPeC® it is certainly more safe, but the outcome for the patient is more consistent.
Now that I have been using the T-SPeC® for over a year and a half, I don’t think I would go back to the older technique.
