Karaya 5 12 Inches Pre-Sized Drainable Pouch Transparent Porous Paper Tape Size: 2 1/2 Inches, 30 Count

Urostomy pouches are special bags that are used to collect urine after bladder surgery. Instead of going to your bladder, urine will go outside of your abdomen. The part that sticks outside your abdomen is called the stoma. Drainable pouches are available in both one-piece and two-piece. A drainable bag allows users to empty the contents of the pouch and then reuse. Primarily, people with ileostomies or whose stool is semi-formed, drainable pouches are a better choice.

This is because they require fewer changes than closed-end bags. You will need to empty your pouch about 6 8 times per day. Never let a pouch become more than half full. It is best to empty the pouch when it is 1/3 full. A full pouch is heavy and can loosen the seal on the wafer causing a leakage.
