Why 2000 mL Capacity with Anti-Reflux Protection

The 2-liter capacity strikes an optimal balance—large enough to reduce frequent emptying during overnight care or moderate-output situations, yet manageable in weight when full. The anti-reflux tower provides critical protection against urine backflow into the bladder, a key factor in preventing catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs).

Key Features & Benefits

• 2000 mL capacity with easy-read graduated scale for accurate monitoring
• Anti-reflux tower helps minimize urine backflow and aspiration into tubing
• Luer-lock inlet provides positive, secure connection to Foley/suprapubic lines
• Slide-tap drain enables controlled, one-handed emptying
• Kink-resistant tubing supports steady flow
• Bed-rail hooks and hang strap keep bag positioned below bladder level
• Sampling/needleless port on tubing for aseptic samples (varies by model)
• Latex-free, sterile (EO), single-patient use

Clinical Applications

Appropriate for: ✓ Moderate-output post-operative urinary management
✓ Overnight drainage without excessive weight when full
✓ Intermediate-term catheterization in hospitals or facilities
✓ Acute care settings with regular output monitoring
✓ Post-surgical patients with Foley or suprapubic catheters
✓ Patients requiring manageable bag size for mobility
✓ Facilities focused on CAUTI prevention protocols

Usage & Application - Clinical Guidance

For Healthcare Professional Use: This drainage bag is intended for use by trained clinicians or under clinical direction following facility protocols.

Setup & Connection:

1. Verify bag is sterile and packaging is intact
2. Remove from package using aseptic technique
3. Connect catheter tubing to bag inlet via Luer-lock connection
4. Twist to secure positive lock engagement
5. Ensure anti-reflux tower is upright and functional
6. Position bag below bladder level using bed-rail hooks or hanger
7. Verify unobstructed flow from catheter to bag

Positioning Requirements:

• ALWAYS keep bag below bladder level to ensure gravity drainage
• Secure to bed frame or IV pole below patient level
• Avoid placing on floor (contamination risk)
• Ensure tubing has no kinks or compression points
• Maintain straight drainage path when possible

Monitoring:

• Check graduated scale regularly for output measurement
• Document volumes per facility protocol
• Empty when bag reaches ½ to ¾ full (approximately 1000-1500 mL)
• Monitor for adequate flow and catheter patency
• Inspect anti-reflux tower for proper function

Emptying Procedure:

1. Wash hands and don clean gloves
2. Position receptacle below drain valve (avoid contact with outlet)
3. Open slide-tap valve to drain completely
4. Close valve securely when empty
5. Wipe outlet with alcohol prep
6. Dispose of urine per facility protocol
7. Remove gloves and perform hand hygiene

Sampling (if port available):

• Use needleless port for aseptic urine sampling
• Follow facility protocol for specimen collection
• Never disconnect catheter to obtain sample
• Maintain closed system integrity

Infection Prevention:

• Maintain closed drainage system at all times
• Never disconnect unless catheter replacement needed
• Keep bag below bladder level continuously
• Empty regularly to prevent overfilling and backpressure
• Replace entire system per facility protocol (typically with catheter change)
