Problems solved by technology

Many catheter users have poor finger strength due to spinal cord injuries, which can exacerbate gripping issues
Additionally, if the collection bag is made of certain materials, moving the collection bag in the manner described above will create a "crunching" noise which, if the catheter is used in a communal recovery room, will cause the user feel embarrassed

Embodiment Construction

[0031] see figure 1 , 1A with Figure 1B , a urine collection bag 10 comprises two opposite parts 11, 12 ( Figure 1B ), at the seam 14, the two opposing parts are sealed together to form a substantially airtight container 13 for containing urine flowing from the patient's bladder. Seam 14 may be sealed by ultrasonic welding or heat sealing. Prior to use, the urine collection bag 10 contains a urinary catheter 40 (shown in dashed lines in the figure). The urinary catheter 40 includes a urinary catheter 42 with a catheter for insertion into the patient's urethra. In the first end 44 and a second end 46, urine flows from the bladder into the collection bag 10 through the second end 46. The first end 44 of the urinary catheter 42 has a leading end 47 which is housed in a braking mouthpiece 48 which is welded to the root of the leading end 47 . The function of the brake interface pipe 48 will be described in detail below. The second end 46 of the catheter 42 has a non-defor...

Abstract

The present invention discloses a urine collection bag having features that facilitate easy insertion of a urinary catheter into a patient's bladder. In some embodiments, the urine collection bag is made of a soft, flexible material that is comfortable for the user when in contact with human skin, is easy to handle, and is relatively noiseless during use of.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to urine collection bags for use in urinary catheter systems. Background technique [0002] Urinary catheter systems generally include a long, thin flexible tube (urinary catheter) that is inserted into the urethra and extends through the deltoid muscle of the bladder into the bladder for withdrawing urine from the bladder. Urine flows through the catheter and is collected—for example, in a urine collection bag. Once the flow of urine stops, or if the collection bag is filled, the catheter is withdrawn from the bladder. The catheter is generally lubricated to facilitate insertion. In a closed catheter system, to prevent contact / contamination by personnel when the catheter is inserted into the urethra, the lubricated catheter is placed in a urine collection bag with a urine boot tip. The introducer tip is inserted into the patient's urethra, and the catheter is routed out of the collection bag by sliding it through the ...
