I know we have something else here but darned if I can find it I know what it is so if someone else can help....There are some crystals you can buy that you put into the urinal and when urine hits them they turn to gel so there is no back flow

I looked up the product you mentioned, it seems it is actually a urinal, not a condom catheter as I first supposed. I think it is time to explore other options for when he needs to go. Is he totally bed bound?

I highly recommend a condom catheter. Easy to use, and almost fail proof. My husband had a stroke 6 years ago, and this solved our night time toileting issue. Only negative is that he occasionally forgets when he doesn't have it on during the daytime.

If urine flow too strong, silicon crystals might not work because it takes a while to gel up.
My dh has mobility issue due to PD. Ever since he started using condom catheters, I can have a full night undisturbed sleep. Been using them for almost 9 months, no leakage at all. But like Grandma154 said, it might not work on someone who would get confused at night and try to yank it off. If you consider this option, try contact a company called Coloplast. They have excellent customer service to guide you through the whole process and give you free samples so you can try different condom sizes. Medicare pays for them if you get doctor's prescription. I love them so much and is tempted to have my dh wear them 24 hrs. But PCP advised against it coz of higher risk of infection. So we just use it at night and on long trips.

8Mason / Llamalover:
I don't know why "Tom" gave such a poor review if he was describing the same thing my dh is using. He might have used it in a wrong way or a wrong size. In my experience, Coloplast's condom catheters (one my dh uses is called Conveen Optima) is totally leak-proofed. We've used it for 9 months and never have a leak. I still stand behind my claim.
