Urine Bag – 1 Pack of 10pcs

Product Description

The Angiplast Urine Bag 2A is a standard bedside drainage bag designed for efficient urine collection. With a generous 2000ml capacity, it reduces the frequency of emptying required by nursing staff or caregivers. The bag is transparent, allowing for easy visual inspection of urine color and volume.

A critical feature of the Model 2A is its Anti-Reflux Flutter Valve, which prevents collected urine from flowing back up the tube towards the patient. This mechanism is essential for minimizing the risk of Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs). The inlet tubing is 90cm long, providing ample length to hang the bag on a bedside rail while the patient is in bed, ensuring gravity drainage works effectively.

Specifications:

• Capacity: 2000 ml

• Tube Length: 90 cm (36 inches)

• Tube Diameter: 6 mm (approx. 1/4″)

• Valve Type: Anti-Reflux Flutter Valve

• Connector: Universal Stepped Connector with Cap

• Material: Medical Grade PVC (Latex-Free)

• Sterility: Sterile Fluid Pathway

How to Use

Step 1: Preparation Wash hands thoroughly. Remove the urine bag from its protective packaging. Ensure the outlet valve (if applicable for emptying) is closed.

Step 2: Connection Remove the protective cap from the stepped inlet connector. Attach the connector firmly to the funnel end of the patient’s Foley catheter or external catheter. Ensure the fit is tight to prevent leaks.

Step 3: Positioning Hang the bag using the reinforced eyelets or hanger on the bedside frame. Crucial: Always keep the bag positioned lower than the patient’s bladder to ensure proper drainage by gravity.

Step 4: Monitoring Check the tubing periodically to ensure it is not kinked or compressed. Observe the urine volume; do not let the bag overfill beyond the 2000ml mark.

Step 5: Disposal To discard, disconnect carefully from the catheter. Dispose of the bag and its contents according to biohazard waste management protocols.

FAQs

Q: How often should the bag be changed?
A: Standard protocol often suggests changing the bag every 5-7 days, or immediately if it becomes damaged, blocked, or has a foul odor. Follow your specific healthcare provider’s advice.

Q: Does this bag have a bottom outlet for emptying?
A: The “2A” designation typically refers to a standard bag. Some models are “closed” (single use without draining), while others have a T-tap or Push-Pull valve. Check the physical product; if no valve is present at the bottom, it is a single-use discardable bag.

Q: Is the tubing length adjustable?
A: The provided tubing is 90cm (36 inches). It should not be cut as it may compromise the sterile connection to the bag.

Q: What prevents the urine from going back up the tube?
A: A flutter valve (non-return valve) is located at the top inlet of the bag. It closes automatically if the bag is tilted or lifted, stopping backflow.
