Bags and Meter Bags

Catheter bags are designed to collect urine. They attach to a special tube, called the catheter, which is itself attached to a person's bladder to help urinary elimination — or, in the case of a nephrostomy, one or both of the kidneys. These bags can be emptied and reused, making them an invaluable part of life for people with certain afflictions. Need to measure the urine output in case of kidney issues? You can find several types of catheter bags including metered bags, each serving a different purpose, right on this page.
