- An indigenously developed faecal incontinence management system ‘Qora’ has been developed by M/s. Consure Medical, New Delhi.
- This Company has developed this novel technology ‘Fecal Incontinence Management System-Qora’ to address the clinical and economic implications of fecal incontinence by expanding indications for use, reducing skill level required to use a device, and introducing a new level of care for patients outside the ICU.
- Consure Medical has developed the QoraTM Stool Management Kit, the world’s first FDA 510(k) approved indwelling fecal drainage device for the management of fecal incontinence that can be used across a continuum of care facilities from ICUs to nursing homes. In select markets like India, caretakers of bedridden patients at home can use the device.
