Make sure the drainage tube is open and push
the fluid through the arm until there is no more

Increasing Urinary Flow
1.
Remove the ostomy from the suprapubic
stoma site and attach the rubber plug
to seal the bladder reservoir.
2.
Use the squeeze bulb located on the right side of
the lower torso to inflate the internal cushion.
This will lift the bladder and will increase bladder
pressure and which intensifies the urinary flow.
