Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, this method involves the patient not being able to interrupt their urine flow to collect the midstream, which is very difficult to collect
In any case, this method can result in the inadvertent discharge of urine onto the patient's hands and / or into the urine collection container

Embodiment Construction

[0092] In FIG. 1 there is shown a dual chamber fluid receiving and containing device 100 (hereinafter generally referred to as a "dual chamber device" for the sake of brevity), which may advantageously be used to receive a stream of urine from a The stream portion and the mid-stream portion are accommodated separately, as described below.

[0093] As described in particular below, the illustrated dual chamber device 100 includes a generally cylindrical device body or fluid cup 102, a top cap or cap 104 removably attached to the open upper end of the body, A bottom cover or cap 106, a bottom cover locking ring 108 screwed onto the main body to secure the bottom cover to the main body (described below), and is detachably connected to the main body by an angled fitting 112 protruding from the upper region of the main body The tilt handle 110. Adjacent to the fitting 112 shown is a miniature pressure relief hole 120 that extends through the device body outer wall 124 at the highe...

Abstract

A dual-chamber device(100) for receiving and containing a liquid, particularly urine, employs a generally cylindrical body having a detachable top cover, bottom cover(104,106) and an internal, transverse, funnel-shaped wall (140). The transverse wall (140) has a central circular orifice (146) and divides the body into lower and upper chambers for respectively receiving and retaining forestream and mid-stream urine liquid samples. A floatable orifice stopper (160) in the lower chamber is responsive to fore-stream liquid filling the lower chamber to a predetermined level for closing the orifice, so that subsequent, mid-stream urine liquid is received into the upper chamber (142). An annular float (180) beneath the orifice stopper assures proper stopper closing of the orifice.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to the field of a device for collecting and separately containing dual samples of fluids, and more particularly to the collection and separately containing of dual samples of bodily fluids, especially urine for analysis. Collect and house separately. Background technique [0002] There frequently arise situations where it is necessary or desirable to collect and separately contain liquid samples. As an example, bacterial analysis often requires collection of a stream commonly referred to as "midstream" urine, as described below. [0003] Optimal midstream urine samples for bacterial diagnostic workup are obtained directly from the patient's bladder by catheterization or by a very rigorous 10-step body cleansing technique using a variety of antimicrobial agents available in a variety of midstream urine collection systems . Often, these tedious and highly difficult cleaning procedures are not rigorously performe...
