Troubleshooting

Urine won't drain into my bag?

Firstly, check that the tubing is not kinked. If there are any kinks

in the tubing, straighten them out. A trapped Non Return Valve

(NRV) can also prevent urine draining into the bag. The NRV is the

clear flap of plastic that is located directly behind the Bear print on

the bag. On very 'rare' occasions the NRV during sterilisation can

become trapped. Manipulate the NRV by rubbing the front and

back of the bag where the Bear is, this should release the NRV and

allow proper drainage. If this does not work, please contact your

Healthcare Professional.

My bag has turned purple?!

This is a known phenomenon called "Purple Bag Syndrome".

Bacteria in the urine or certain medications can react with the

bag material and change it blue or purple. The change in colour

is not harmful but we would advise you consult your Healthcare

Professional to rule out infection.

The bag keeps disconnecting from my Catheter?

Disconnection usually occurs when the

connector on the drainage bag has not

been sufficiently pushed into the

catheter. Ensure the ridged connector

on the drainage bag is pushed in as

far as possible to ensure a secure

connection.

The tap on my bag keeps

catching/ accidentally

opening – what can I do?

The tap on our Libra Leg

Bag and reusable Night

Bags can be rotated 360°

and positioned to prevent

accidental opening.

"It is important to

secure the Catheter

after insertion to

prevent movement &

urethral traction"
