Hello- a vacuum constriction device (vcd) is an external pump with a band on it that a man with erectile dysfunction can use to get and maintain an erection. The vcd (vacuum constriction devices) consists of an acrylic cylinder with a pump that may be attached directly to the end of the penis. A constriction ring or band is placed on the cylinder at the other end, which is applied to the body. The cylinder and pump are used to create a vacuum to help the penis become erect; the band or constriction ring is used to help maintain the erection.
