Rochester Medical makes catheters and other products for home treatment of male urinary incontinence.
C.R. Bard, the company buying Rochester Medical, manufactures and markets urology, surgical and other medical products. The deal will expand Bard's homecare urology products business, the company said. The deal is expected to close later this year.
