Designed to attach seamlessly to the outlet of an indwelling catheter, such as a Foley catheter, this device provides an alternative to traditional urinary drainage bags.

- Universal Compatibility: The universal connector is compatible with most catheter types, enabling broad usability.
Benefits
- Discreet Management: By mimicking normal bladder function through periodic emptying, the valve enables discreet continence management.
- Convenience: The ability to close the valve facilitates easy changing or removal of drainage bags, which is particularly useful during activities such as showering or swimming.
Material and Safety
