PropertyValue
?:definition
  • Sacklike containers designed to collect urine, typically via the proximal end of a catheter, which has a tip placed in the urinary bladder. These devices are typically flexible plastic bags or pouches that are located externally to the patient (e.g., attached to the bed or a pole) or patient worn (e.g., fixed on a leg) for ambulatory use. Indwelling catheter urinary collection bags usually include drainage capabilities to other containers or to dispose of the urine (e.g., into the toilet). They are used temporarily during surgical procedures and in acute care units; patient-worn bags are also used to treat some types of urinary incontinence.
