Bard Drain Bag 4000mL Sterile 120cm Tube Lever Tap (153509)

The Bard Drain Bag 4000mL Sterile 120cm Tube Lever Tap (153509) provides an advanced, high-capacity drainage solution tailored for demanding post-operative environments. When patients require continuous, reliable urine collection, the quality of the drainage system directly impacts comfort, infection control, and caregiver efficiency. Bard has engineered this 4-liter system to meet these high clinical standards, combining robust materials with user-friendly features to support seamless fluid management during critical recovery phases.

Why Choose This Product?

In recovery settings where fluid output may be high or frequent monitoring is challenging, the 4000mL capacity of this bag is a significant clinical advantage. By reducing the frequency of emptying compared to standard 2-liter bags, you lower the risk of contamination and improve patient comfort. The inclusion of the EZ-Lok double hanger system ensures that the bag remains stable and securely positioned, preventing the stress of accidental dislodgment, while the 120cm tubing provides the versatility needed for various bed configurations.

Ideal Use Cases

• Post-Operative Recovery: The primary choice for patients requiring high-output urinary drainage following complex surgeries.

• Critical Care Units: Suitable for intensive monitoring where frequent bag changes are impractical or undesirable.

• High-Volume Drainage Requirements: Essential for patients with specific clinical conditions necessitating larger storage capacities than standard drainage bags provide.

Directions for Use

1. Setup: Using the EZ-Lok double hanger, secure the drainage bag to the frame of the patient’s bed. Ensure the bag is consistently positioned below the level of the bladder to utilize gravity flow.

2. Connection: Aseptically connect the 120cm tubing to the patient’s indwelling catheter.

3. Emptying: When the bag reaches the desired level, open the lever tap over a clinical waste container. Ensure the lever is returned to the fully locked position after drainage to prevent leaks.

4. Disposal: This product is intended for single-use. After the clinical need has passed or the bag reaches its service life, dispose of the unit according to your facility’s medical waste procedures.

Important Safety/Storage Information

• Infection Control: Never elevate the bag above the patient’s bladder level, as this poses a high risk of retrograde infection.

• Maintenance: Regularly inspect the tubing to ensure it remains free of kinks or obstructions.

• Storage: Store in a clean, dry area away from direct sunlight, extreme heat, or sharp objects that could compromise the sterile barrier.

• Integrity Check: Do not use if the sterile packaging is damaged, opened, or punctured.
