What is a urine drainage bag used for?
Urine drainage bags collect urine. Your bag will attach to a catheter (tube) that is inside your bladder. You may have a catheter and urine drainage bag because you have urinary incontinence (leakage), urinary retention (not being able to urinate), surgery that made a catheter necessary, or another health problem.
What are the two types of urinary drainage bags?
It is either a regular (large bag) drainage bag or a small leg bag. If you have a urinary (Foley) catheter, you will use the larger drainage bag at night while you are sleeping. You can use the leg bag during the day. The leg bag is attached to your leg and allows you to move around more easily.
