A urostomy bag is a specialized ostomy pouch designed to collect urine from a urostomy stoma. It attaches to the skin around the stoma as part of a urostomy pouching system and collects liquid urine output in the pouch.
Urostomy bags are different from colostomy or ileostomy pouches because they are designed for urine output and may include features such as an anti-reflux valve, drainage tap, outlet, or bedside drainage connection. Product specifications and healthcare guidance should be reviewed carefully to confirm pouch type, wafer compatibility, stoma opening size, capacity, closure style, and intended use before ordering.
