SPRING-LOADED BAG CONNECTOR

摘要

A spring-loaded bag connector having a spring-loaded valve and a housing comprising a fluid inlet portion and a fluid outlet portion. The spring-loaded bag connector is configured to connect with a fluid collection bag to generate a self-closing collection bag. Additionally, the spring-loaded bag connector is configured to couple with a second coupling element, such as a coupling connector, to facilitate the drainage and collection of waste to a fluid collection bag. Uncoupling of the bag connector and the second coupling element results in minimal fluid contamination on the outer surfaces of the bag connector system. The bag connector systems provided herein are included in medical appliances for body waste management.
