STEWARTVILLE, Minn., Oct. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Rochester Medical Corporation (NASDAQ: [ ROCM ]), the world's leading developer and manufacturer of silicone catheters for continence care, today announced its next generation of male external catheters with the launch of the Spirit™ Hydrocolloid Adhesive Sheath.

These combined properties are extremely important for people who use these devices on a regular basis."
