Why choose Rusch Urinary Belly Bag?

• It is safe to use with the ridged connector, which is suitable for all common catheters and ensures a secure connection to the catheter funnel.
• The connector with an integrated non-reflux valve prevents urine from flowing back from the bag into the catheter, thereby minimizing the risk of urinary tract infection.
• The soft textile belt with quick fastener is designed to be secured around the waist, ensuring a secure hold underneath clothing.
• The skin-friendly fleece backing helps in protecting the skin from irritations and is gentle to wear, even if the bag is used over a prolonged period of time.
• The convenient and hygienic non-drip outlet valve with twist control drainage tap enables the bag to be emptied quickly and easily.
• It is fit for single-handed operation and even with limited manual dexterity.
• It minimizes the risk of accidental catheter dislodgement due to the absence of long tubes and the bag being close to the body.
