About McKesson Disposable Urinary Leg Bag with Anti-Reflux and Twist Valve
The McKesson Disposable Urinary Leg Bag is a sterile, single-use urine collection bag designed for catheterized patients who want a discreet, comfortable, and reliable option for daytime urine management. The bag features an integrated anti-reflux valve that helps prevent urine from flowing back toward the catheter and the patient — an important safety feature that helps reduce the risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) from retrograde contamination. The twist valve drainage port allows easy, controlled emptying with a low risk of spillage, making it practical for patients managing their own care as well as for clinical staff collecting urine samples for laboratory testing. The bag is marked on its exterior with graduated readings in bold black font that are large enough to read clearly, allowing accurate volume measurement without additional containers. Available in 500 mL, 750 mL, and 1000 mL capacities to accommodate different patient needs and activity levels. The low-profile design and pre-attached flexible vinyl straps hold the bag securely against the leg and keep it discreetly concealed beneath pants or a long skirt during daily activities. Individually packaged to help maintain a sterile fluid path. Made without natural rubber latex.
WARNING: This product can expose you to di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP), which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
Key Benefits & Features
- Integrated Anti-Reflux Valve: The built-in anti-reflux device prevents collected urine from flowing back toward the catheter and the patient, helping to reduce the risk of catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) from retrograde contamination — a critical safety feature for patients who rely on continuous catheterization.
- Twist Valve Drainage Port for Easy Emptying: The twist valve at the bottom of the bag opens and closes smoothly for controlled, low-spillage drainage — making self-emptying manageable for patients and simplifying urine collection for laboratory testing and output measurement by clinical staff.
- Self-Sealing Sample Port: The self-sealing sample port allows urine specimens to be withdrawn for testing without disconnecting or contaminating the drainage system, supporting accurate sample collection while maintaining a closed sterile fluid path.
- Graduated Exterior Markings for Volume Measurement: Bold black graduated markings on the exterior of the bag allow accurate, at-a-glance volume readings without the need to transfer urine to a separate measuring container — useful for output monitoring, urine testing, and laboratory specimen collection.
- Available in Three Capacities: Offered in 500 mL, 750 mL, and 1000 mL sizes to accommodate different patient needs, activity levels, and clinical requirements — from more active ambulatory patients who prefer a smaller, lighter bag to patients who need longer wear time between emptying.
- Discreet and Concealable Under Clothing: The low-profile design sits flush against the leg and is not visible when worn under pants or a long skirt, supporting dignity and discretion during daily activities, work, and social situations.
- Flexible, Adjustable, Pre-Attached Vinyl Straps: Two flexible vinyl straps come pre-attached to the bag and adjust to hold it securely in place against the leg at the appropriate position, accommodating a range of leg sizes and preventing the bag from slipping or shifting during movement.
- Sterile, Single-Use, and Individually Packaged: Each bag is individually sterile packaged to help maintain a sterile fluid path from opening through use. Single-use construction eliminates contamination risk from reuse and is appropriate for both acute and long-term catheter care settings. Not made with natural rubber latex.
Who Should Be Using This?
The McKesson Disposable Urinary Leg Bag is appropriate for catheterized adults who require a daytime urine collection solution that is discreet, comfortable, and manageable for self-care or assisted care. It is suitable for use in home care, outpatient, and acute care settings and for patients undergoing routine urine output monitoring or specimen collection. Always follow your healthcare provider's instructions for catheter care, bag management, and replacement frequency.
How Do You Use or Apply This Product?
- Wash hands thoroughly before handling the bag or making any connections to the urinary catheter system.
- Open the sterile packaging and connect the bag's inlet port to the drainage tubing of the urinary catheter using aseptic technique.
- Position the bag against the inner thigh or lower leg and secure with the pre-attached adjustable vinyl straps. The bag should hang below the level of the bladder at all times to allow gravity drainage.
- To empty, twist the drain valve open over a toilet or collection container. Close the twist valve firmly after emptying to prevent leakage.
- To collect a urine specimen, use the self-sealing sample port with a syringe and aseptic technique — do not disconnect the drainage system to obtain a sample.
- Replace the leg bag as directed by your healthcare provider — typically every 5 to 7 days or sooner if any signs of contamination, damage, or odor are present.
