More About Bard Urine Drainage Bag

• Guidelines for Drainage:
  - Periodic inspection of the system should be made to ensure that urine is flowing freely and is not obstructed.
  - Urine drainage bag should be placed near the foot of the bed, and below the level of the patients hip.
  - Drain tubing should be secured to the draw sheet with the sheeting clip to provide a continuous downward sloping path to the drainage bag.
  - When transporting the patient, do not place the drainage bag on the abdomen or between the legs of the patients.
  - Excess tubing should be arranged to permit "straight line" drainage or coiled in a manner that does not allow the tubing to kink or fall below the level of the drainage bag.
  - To promote optimum drainage, position the drainage tubing over the patient leg. This is especially important if the patient is obese.
  - Never allow the drainage bag to be placed on the floor.
