A bedside urinal apparatus. The apparatus includes a urine receptacle having a base, a perimeter sidewall, and a top wall defining an interior volume. A flexible tube includes a lower end connected to the top wall of the base. The interior volume of the base is in fluid communication with an interior channel of the flexible tube. A urine cup is affixed to an upper end of the flexible tube. The urine cup includes a base and a perimeter wall defining an interior volume in fluid communication with the interior channel of the tube. A cup holder is disposed on an upper end of a vertical support that extends upwardly from the base. The cup holder is configured to removably secure the urine cup therein. The bedside urinal apparatus can be utilized by an individual who has the need to urinate without leaving the comfort of their bed.

A urinal bottle holding apparatus includes a mounting hook, a urinal bottle holder, and an attachment mechanism so that a urinal bottle can be safely secured adjacent to a patient. The urinal bottle holder includes a rectangular base, an opening, and a support wall. The opening concentrically traverses through the rectangular base so that the urinal bottle can be inserted and secured. The support wall is terminally connected to a bottom edge of the rectangular base thus delineating a stronger platform to integrate a plurality of holder fastening features of the attachment mechanism. The mounting hook is integrated with a plurality of hook fastening features as the mounting hook is frictionally attached to rectangular base and the support wall through the attachment mechanism.

An excreta disposal device is provided, which includes a main body formed with a first disposal space opened in a hip direction of a human body to receive excreta discharged from the human body, and has a storage space formed therein. A male module, in which a second disposal space configured to receive urine discharged from the human body, is formed inside, and an opening unit opened to face the human body of the user is formed on one side of the second disposal space. The second disposal space is formed to be capable of inserting at least a part of male genitalia and is provided in the main body. A suction port is provided in the storage space and communicates with at least one of the first disposal space and the second disposal space to discharge excreta to the outside of the main body.

An excreta disposal apparatus with a gender-specific module includes a body having a seating unit corresponding in shape to the curved shape of the genital area and buttocks of a human body, a urine disposal unit corresponding to the genital area of the human body, an excrement disposal unit corresponding to the buttocks of the human body and a disposal space open toward the genital area and buttocks of the human body to take excreta discharged from the human body. A main body unit, connected to the seating unit, is mounted between the legs of the human body and has an accommodation space therein. A discharge channel is provided in the accommodation space and communicates with the disposal space to discharge the excreta in the disposal space to the outside. The body includes the gender-specific module, which is detachably provided and includes the urine disposal unit.

A patient support apparatus includes detectors and a controller operable to automatically update a tare weight for use in determining a true patient weight. The detectors are configured to produce signals indicating a presence or absence of a corresponding removable component. The controller is configured to determine weights of each and every removable component on the patient support apparatus and store each weight in a memory. The controller is further configured to receive the signals produced by the detectors and detect any addition or removal of removable components of the patient support apparatus, update the tare weight, and determine a weight of a patient being supported on the patient support apparatus.

Example urine storage assemblies and systems for storing and disposing urine are described. The assembly includes a urine storage container, a lid, and a handle accessory. The lid is secured or securable to an open end of the urine storage container. The lid includes a vacuum port, a urine collection port, a urine disposal port, and a cap secured or securable to the urine disposal port. The handle accessory includes a sleeve and at least one handle. The sleeve is shaped and sized complimentary to at least a portion of the urine storage container.

An external female urinary device is described includes a connecting and urine collecting component (CUCC) and a urine directing and discharging component (UDCC) configured to connect with the CUCC. The CUCC tapers from a larger orifice to a smaller orifice. The CUCC has a ring defining the larger orifice. The ring is made of a material capable of adhering to urethral orifice surrounding skin (UOSS) as well as to the inner facing surfaces of the labia minora and/or the labia majora after the CUCC is pressed against that UOSS. The ring remains adhered to the UOSS without requiring an external force for keeping the ring in contact with that skin. Related apparatuses, systems, methods, techniques and articles are also described.

Disclosed is a female external urinary device useful in managing urine output of a female, such as for surgical use. The urinary device generally comprises a core having a suction channel and an interior reservoir fluidically communicating with the suction channel, an absorbent layer, and a fabric cover. Desirably, the urinary device includes a moderately absorbent soaker layer disposed inwardly with respect to the core. A urinary device assembly includes the core and a pelvic belt that may be secure to the core and positioned to collect urine from a female patient.

A system suitable for collecting and transporting urine away from the body of a person or animal may include an assembly having a fluid impermeable casing having a fluid reservoir at a first end, a fluid outlet at a second end, and a longitudinally extending fluid impermeable layer coupled to the fluid reservoir and the fluid outlet and defining a longitudinally elongated opening between the reservoir and the outlet. The assembly can further include a fluid permeable support disposed within the casing with a portion extending across the elongated opening, and a fluid permeable membrane disposed on the support and covering at least the portion of the support that extends across the elongated opening, so that the membrane is supported on the support and disposed across the elongated opening. The assembly can further include a tube having a first end disposed in the reservoir and a second, fluid discharge end.
