Description

Easy-to-carry and detachable Yurin bag {URINE BAG}

The present invention relates to a yurin bag that is easy to carry and attach, and more particularly, urine storage divided into a portable part that can be used when the patient moves and a large-capacity part to which the portable part is coupled when the patient does not move. It's about the device.

Urine bag refers to a urine bag to help urination of patients who have difficulty in controlling urination on their own, such as patients who have undergone moderate surgery, patients with impaired urination due to general anesthesia, the elderly in nursing homes, or rehabilitation patients. . For example, the urin bag may be connected to a catheter inserted into the bladder of patients to store urine moving through the catheter.

Conventionally, most of the Yurin bags were used by being mounted on a separate mounting device such as an infusion hanger. When a patient who can move uses the Yurin bag mounted on a separate mounting device as described above, the Yurin bag moves with the patient in a state exposed to the outside, causing a problem of infringing on the patient's privacy. In addition, there is a problem in that the urine stored inside the Yurin bag flows back into the catheter from the Yurin bag due to shaking or shock during the movement process, resulting in secondary infectious diseases.

In addition, Yurin Bags, which have recently been added with various functions, are difficult to use without a separate mounting device due to their large volume, size, and various configurations. That is, the recently developed Yurin bags are supplemented in functional aspects such as urine volume detection, but they have a problem in that the convenience and portability of patients who can move are inevitably reduced.
