摘要:
An intermittent urinary catheter assembly (20) comprises a catheter tube (22) having a proximal insertion end (24) and a distal end (26) remote from the proximal insertion end and a lumen (28) which extends from at or near the proximal insertion end to the distal end for draining urine from a human bladder. The intermittent urinary catheter assembly includes a urine discharge sleeve (34) associated with the discharge opening (30) of the catheter tube, and the urine discharge sleeve has a compact stowed configuration and is extendable into a deployed configuration for directing urine flow. Alternatively, an adapter assembly (50″;) comprises a fitting or nipple (52″;) having a urine passageway for insertion into a funnel (40″;) associated with a urine discharge end of an intermittent urinary catheter, and a discharge funnel (42″;) associated with the fitting or nipple, and an extendable urine discharge sleeve (34″;) within the discharge funnel.
