A system for holding and disposing of urine for patients who are continent comprises a urinal (10), a drainage tube (14), and urine receptacle (18). When a continent patient desires to urinate, he or she simply positions the urinal (10) properly and urinates. The urine entering the urinal (10) is conveyed through the urinal (10) to the drainage tube (14) and into the receptacle (18) which may be disposed for or may be used for medical tests. In a preferred embodiment, the drainage tube (18) includes a one-way flow valve (58) to prevent urine in the receptacle (18) from accidentally flowing into the urinal (10) in the event that the urinal (10) is dropped or the receptacle (18) suddenly raised. |
