Embodiments disclosed herein are directed a urine collection device suitable for collecting and transporting urine away from the body of a person may include a receptacle that defines an interior volume and receives a penis of the user. The receptacle can include an interior layer and an exterior layer. The interior layer can form one or more apertures. The urine collection device can include an air inlet in fluid communication with the interior volume. The urine collection device can include an outlet in fluid communication with the interior volume and configured to enable extraction of fluid from the receptacle. The outlet can retain a tube coupled to a vacuum source which extracts urine, air, or a combination thereof from the receptacle by applying a negative pressure to the interior volume of the receptacle.

A device for collecting urine discharged from a body of a user includes a fluid collection assembly having at least one layer for drawing urine discharged from the body into an interior cavity, an external covering that covers a portion of the at least one layer, and at least one fenestration for receiving urine, wherein the fenestration is a portion of the fluid collection assembly that is uncovered by the external covering. The device further includes a cap enclosing a first end of the assembly, a tube having a first end in fluid communication with the cap, and a shape retaining element configured to conform the assembly to a curved configuration and maintain the curved configuration until the configuration is adjusted. The assembly is configured to be disposed against the body of the user, with the at least one fenestration in operative relation with a urethral opening of the user.

A system including a stoma cover and an applicator for applying a stoma cover for temporarily covering a stoma during exchange of an ostomy appliance. The stoma cover has a hood-like element with a proximal end portion and a distal end portion, wherein the proximal end portion of the hood-like element is configured to be adjustable to provide for a stoma entrance of the stoma cover to be of variable size, which can be manipulated using the applicator. Also disclosed is a stoma cover and a kit of parts.

A garment for wearing post-surgery, comprising first and second panel portions constructed of an elastic material, a closure mechanism for detachably attaching the edges of the panel portions, and, an elastic support band associated with either the upper or bottom area of the panel portions. The garment may further include at least one retention strip of material associated in at least one place on the first or second panel portions. At least one retention member is adapted to removably attach to the retention strip. At least one pouch that can hold a drainage bulb, monitoring device, or other item, may also be removably attached to the retention strip. The garment may be constructed as a vest, girdle, leg sleeve, or other form.

An ostomy output diversion device is used to cover and seal closely around a patient's stoma, to divert stoma effluent output through the device, into a container or reservoir, temporarily eliminating the need of an adhesive-based ostomy pouching system. The ostomy output diversion device is placed over the person's stoma, with the base ring surrounding the peristomal skin, the adjustable inner tube is retracted until the base ring is centered over the stoma, the body support strap is then placed over the device to secure it to the patient's body, the inner tube is then extended over the stoma, the patient applies the desired pressure against the skin, then secures the inner tube in place with the pressure adjustment lock. The device may also include an ostomy pouch mounting ring for attachment to an ostomy pouch, and a disposable receptacle.

A catheter system is disclosed that includes a catheter with an elongated, flexible tube having an entry end, an exit end, and a control valve. The control valve controls the flow of fluids through the catheter tube. The exit end or control valve also includes a coupler which is utilized to allow the catheter to be moved between a stowed condition coupled to a flexible belt and an in-use condition uncoupled from the belt.

An incontinence assist appliance for a user comprises an envelope including a surface, such as an upper outside surface, for contact with the user. A removable bladder is receivable within the envelope and includes a port for attachment of a catheter which passes through an opening in the outer envelope. The bladder contains a urine absorbing substance so that it avoids spills of liquid urine. The envelope may be formed as a wearable garment. A pair of trousers incorporating the appliance in each leg is also provided.

The present invention relates to a carrier for urine bag, wherein the carrier holds the urine bag firmly over the body of the patient. The carrier also holds the catheter tube stably with the help of a plurality of tube holders present in the carrier body, thus allowing an easy movement of the patient, keeping the patient's hands free and allowing the patient to do his daily activities without any pain and guilt. The carrier comprises a carrier body 100, at least two extended arms 130, a pocket 101, an opening 201, a plurality of tube holders 108, a belt 120 and a connecting means 114.

A skin-safe effluent containment system that may be used to contain fluid leakage from openings in the body of a patient and will adhere to skin in any condition: healthy or injured, wet or dry, smooth, scarred, or uneven. Fluid leakage can occur from natural orifices such as the anus and vagina, spontaneously formed enteric fistulas, rectovaginal fistulas, and surgical openings such as ileostomy and colostomy stomas. The system includes a vacuum-adherent pouch device, comprised of a pouch connected to a porous foam ring which has an air-permeable contact layer on its bottom surface and an air seal on its top surface. The inner and outer perimeters of the foam ring are enclosed and sealed with skin-adhesive materials. When placed on the patient, negative pressure (vacuum) is applied to the foam ring so that the foam collapses and compresses the vacuum-adherent pouch device down against the patient's skin. Negative pressure in combination with the adhesive materials on the perimeters of the foam ring forms a fluid barrier around the opening in the body of the patient so that leakage can be directed into the pouch and drawn away to a separate effluent container.
