Which Night Bag
is right for me?
GB Night Bags are designed with common features but also
with specific benefits to suit individual needs. Here are some
considerations to make when selecting a Night Bag:
1)
Do you wear a Leg Bag or Catheter Valve and need a
Night Bag for additional drainage?
If yes, a Single Use Night Bag would be beneficial.
You connect it directly to your Leg Bag or Catheter
Valve as part of an overnight link system (Page 13).
2)
Are you largely immobile or under bed rest?
If so, one of the reusable options would be suitable as
they can be connected directly to the Catheter and kept
in situ for 5-7 days without a need for a Leg Bag.
3)
Are you susceptible to infections?
Those who are more vulnerable or at
risk of infection could benefit from
our GB3S - a Night Bag that
combines the infection control
benefits of both single use
and sterile options.
Remember
Under no circumstances
should any Night Bag be
reused once the initial
connection has been
broken.
Overnight
Link System
Where a Leg Bag is being used, a 2 litre or 3 litre Night Bag can
be connected to the end of the Leg Bag to provide additional
capacity for overnight drainage.
1) When you go to bed, do not disconnect your Leg Bag from
your Catheter or Sheath.
2) Insert the connector of your Night Bag to the silicone sleeve
on your Leg Bag (Diagram 1). Insert the connector fully to
allow a secure connection.
3) Once connected, turn the Libra Leg Bag tap to the open
position (Diagram 2) to allow the overnight drainage into
the Night Bag.
4) Before disconnecting the Night Bag in the morning, ensure
the Libra Leg Bag tap is in the closed position (Diagram 3).
The next night, use a new Night Bag
– never reconnect a used Night Bag.
