A menstrual disc with a foldable rim and a catchment portion. The rim is configured with a removal mechanism that is positioned attached to the rim such that it does not interfere with the anatomical position of the disc when in use. Accordingly, many embodiments of the disc use a removal mechanism such a filament or tab that is positioned interior to the rim or below the lower surface of the rim.

System and methods for automatically removing by suction urine voided by a female. The systems include an external catheter and an integrated suction regulator or a stand alone external catheter for use with any source of regulated suction. The external catheter includes a suction tube an a fluid pervious cover. The catheter's cover is applied at the female's urethra opening to receive urine voided by the female, whereupon urine from the external female catheter passes through the cover into the suction tube, from which it is carried by out of the external catheter for collection. The external catheter is malleable so that it can be conformed to the anatomy of the female.

Examples relate to devices, systems, and methods for fluid collection such as urine. The urine collection device includes a fluid impermeable barrier and a fluid permeable body. The fluid impermeable barrier at least partially defines a chamber. The fluid impermeable barrier includes at least one elongated portion having a first width and distal to the aperture and a second portion having a second width greater than the first width. The second portion at least partially defines an opening in the fluid impermeable barrier, and the opening has a maximum lateral dimension greater than the first width of the elongated portion. The fluid permeable body is configured to wick fluid away from the opening into the at least one elongated portion.

A female urinary diagnostic device including a urine stream collection container having a discharge opening and a stream collection opening, the stream collection opening being configured to surround and isolate a urethral opening, a probe guide passage configured for interior engagement with a vaginal opening for placement of the stream collection opening relative to the urethral opening, and an internal baffle that defines an interior wall of the urine stream collection container that provides a spillway from the stream collection opening to the discharge opening and cooperates with at least a urine sensing device, where the spillway provides urine passage to the urine sensing device and a collection tank, wherein the internal baffle forms at least a portion of the probe guide passage and defines a sounding probe guide surface that positions a sounding probe within the vaginal opening.

Examples relate to devices, systems, and methods for fluid collection such as urine. In an embodiment, the urine collection device includes a fluid impermeable barrier and fluid permeable structure. The fluid impermeable barrier is adjustable between an extended configuration and a compact configuration. The fluid impermeable barrier at least partially defines a chamber, an aperture configured to receive a conduit therethrough, and an opening. The fluid permeable structure positioned within the chamber to extend across at least a portion of the opening. The fluid permeable structure configured to wick fluid away from the opening.

The present disclosure provides a menstrual receptacle applicator. The applicator includes a hollow cylindrical main body defining an open proximal end and an open distal end, the main body having an inner diameter of 16 millimeters (mm) to 30 mm at the proximal end and configured to house at least a portion of a menstrual receptacle. The menstrual receptacle applicator further comprises a push rod dimensioned to be inserted into and reciprocally moved within the main body. A kit is also provided, including one or more menstrual receptacles and a menstrual receptacle applicator. Further, a method of inserting a menstrual receptacle is provided. The method includes a) obtaining a menstrual receptacle applicator; either i) rolling the menstrual receptacle into a spiral to form a rolled menstrual receptacle or ii) flattening the receptacle to form a compacted menstrual receptacle; and b) at least partially inserting the rolled menstrual receptacle or the compacted menstrual receptacle into the proximal end of the main body. The method further comprises c) inserting a proximal end of the push rod into the distal end of the main body; d) inserting the proximal end of the main body containing the rolled menstrual receptacle or the compacted menstrual receptacle into a vaginal opening; and e) pushing the push rod toward the proximal end of the main body until the proximal end of the push rod pushes the rolled menstrual receptacle or the compacted menstrual receptacle into the vaginal opening.

Examples relate to fluid collection devices, systems, and methods of collecting fluid from wearers. The fluid collection devices include a retention means for maintaining the position of the fluid collection device with respect to the wearer.

Example fluid impermeable barriers of fluid collection devices and methods of forming a fluid impermeable barrier of a fluid collection device. The fluid impermeable barrier includes an inner surface at least partially defining a chamber, a first end region defining an aperture extending therethrough and including a first outer surface portion, and a second end region distal to the first end region and including a second outer surface portion having more adhesive strength than the first outer surface portion. The fluid impermeable barrier also defines an opening extending longitudinally along the fluid impermeable barrier and configured to be positioned adjacent to a female urethra.
