Urine bags and kits containing a urine bag are disclosed. Methods of making and using urine bags are also disclosed.

(With reference to FIG. 3) A valve for a urostomy appliance including: a housing for connection to the urostomy appliance, the housing having an inlet and an outlet, wherein the housing includes a passage extending between the inlet and outlet, a body which is received in the passage and which is rotatable about an axis between an open position, in which liquid is permitted to flow to the outlet, and a closed position, in which liquid is substantially prevented from flowing to the outlet, and an engagement device for preventing or at least inhibiting the body from being removed from the passage during rotation of the body, the engagement device including a first formation provided on or by the body which extends at least partially around the body and engages with a second formation which is located outside an entrance to the passage.

The present invention provides a fluid-carrying application, comprising: a first sheet with a first surface and a second surface; a second sheet with a third surface and a fourth surface, wherein a part of the third surface and a part of the second surface of the first sheet are welded or adhered to at least one band-shaped region, thereby forming a first chamber having at least a first drainage port, and the inside of the chamber can communicate with the outside through the first drainage port; an adhesive layer, which is provided on the fourth surface of the second sheet; and a release layer, which covers at least a part of the adhesive layer, wherein, the first drainage port is formed at the first sheet or an open portion where the first sheet and the part adjacent to the edge of the second sheet are not welded or adhered to each other.

Disclosed is a collecting bag configured to collect urine or stomal fluids from a stoma of a user, particularly a urostomy. Further discloses is an anti-reflux component to prevent reflux of collected fluids from a collecting volume to an inlet opening of a collecting bag. The anti-reflux component includes interior, proximal and distal contoured sheets connected to each other such as to define a passage between them towards the collecting volume. The sheets are further attached to each other to define two or more non linear connection zones.

An ostomy appliance includes a dual-chamber pouch, which can continuously drain liquids from body waste, while collecting solids in the pouch. The ostomy appliance can also include a flat output tap including a lumen, the size of which can be increased by applying pressure.

Provided herein are controlled evacuation devices, ostomy devices, methods for the manufacture of such devices and the use of such devices.

A medical device according to certain embodiments generally includes a first wall, a second wall, and a first deformable reinforcing member. The first wall and the second wall are joined to one another such that a cavity is formed between the first wall and the second wall. The cavity has an outlet opening formed at a proximal end of the medical device. The first deformable reinforcing member is attached to the first wall, and is deformable by manual application of pressure to lateral edges of the first deformable reinforcing member so as to radially distend the outlet opening. The first deformable reinforcing member includes at least one first notch formed in at least one lateral edge thereof. Each notch is configured to receive a portion of a user's digit to facilitate manual application of pressure to said lateral edges.

An improved urine collection bag assembly is presented. The improved urine collection bag assembly of the present invention features a one-way flow control valve to prevent the backflow of urine into a urinary catheter and subsequently, into a patient's bladder. The improved urine collection bag also features at a lower end a urine sampling valve. In the exemplary embodiment, the one-way flow control valve is a flap style valve and the sampling valve is a slider style valve.

An ostomy pouch includes a collection pouch having a first side wall and a second side wall connected to one another along a periphery, the collection pouch having a collection cavity defined between the first and second side walls, an outlet connected to and extending from the collection pouch, the outlet defining an internal passageway connected to the collection cavity, the outlet having a coupling element, and a drainage adapter configured to engage the coupling element so as to be coupled to the outlet. The outlet is foldable to a closed condition to close the collection pouch and unfoldable to an open condition to drain the collection pouch.

A male urinary incontinence device comprising a top end portion, a bottom end portion and an intermediate portion for containing at least a part of a penis, the top end portion comprising an inlet through which the penis can be entered, the inlet being provided with a cuff member. The cuff member comprises a membrane provided with a through-going aperture, and a first collar provided around the aperture, the first collar extending axially away from a first surface of the membrane, and a second collar provided around the aperture, the second collar extending axially away from a second surface of the membrane. The membrane and the first and the second collar are configured to allow elastic expansion of the aperture to fittingly engage with the penis.
