What are the best incontinence clamps post-surgery?

I concur with Soli comments. I have use the Wiesner and have been since 3/1/2026 after a UTI that I had wasn't treated properly for 5 months. That lead to an infection of my AUS 800 that had to be removed. No need to go into why and what happen its over. I try to empty my bladder about every two hours if I remember. At night, I use a night pad but no clamps. That’s how I’ve been managing so far. I'm very active, running everyday with the clamp and a pad and also working out 5 times a week. This is by no means that I'm comfortable with the clamp and pads during the day but I don't have a choice until my new implant in November. I'm scheduled for my third AUS 800 in November. First one lasted 12 years done at Cleveland Clinic then it malfunctioned, second one installed at Cleveland Clinic and it was infected by my UTI descirbed above. New one will be installed at UPMC Pittsburgh where I live no need to travel to Cleveland given my doctor in Cleveland recommended Dr. Rusilko who is very well respected in this implant.
If you need anymore help or info please reach out and I'll try to answer or help in anyway.
