Things to note when purchasing a urine bag
1. Tightly fastening to the body, causing excessive pressure - in order to prevent urine leakage, some products must tightly close the urine collection cavity to the urinary stoma. It creates a huge negative pressure on the stoma and blocks blood supply, causing redness, swelling, blockage, infection, decay and even necrosis of the stoma. In addition, the belt tightens around the patient's waist, causing discomfort.
2. Unbreathable, repeated infections - the urine collection cavity of some products adopts a fully enclosed structure, with a urine storage bag connected to the lower end. Urine moisture and heat fumigate the urinary stoma, and the hot and humid environment breeds Bacteria can cause infection, causing swelling, inflammation, blockage and pain in the stoma.
3. Large surface contact, panel ulceration - some products are skin-fitting urine bags, which not only cause fumigation of urine and infection, but also cause discomfort and panel rash due to the large area of ??contact with the panel around the stoma. Even ulceration, this is a one-time product and cannot be used for a long time.
4. Design defects, prone to urine leakage - other products do not have a temporary urine receiving cavity sac on the inner edge of the urine collection cavity interface, so urine cannot flow into the urine storage bag smoothly, causing urine leakage. Some products use curved inflatable bags, which makes urine leakage more serious.
5. The material is rigid and difficult to wear - some products use a stainless steel urine collecting chamber shell with a latex sleeve inside, or even a metal fixing plate, which is heavy, stiff and uncomfortable, and the latex sleeve covers the stoma. It can cause urinary tract blockage, urine leakage and infection, and the edge cutting and grinding of the fixed plate can cause pain.

In particular, the anti-urinary leakage design and anti-infection design are relatively comprehensive, and patients can basically Participate in social activities, social labor, and physical exercise like ordinary people.
