A catheterization device comprising, a catheter having an elongated shaft defining a drainage lumen, a drainage eye adjacent a distal end of the shaft, and a proximal end. The device has a receptacle having a collection chamber, and a valve assembly communicating with the receptacle chamber and having a channel to receive the proximal end of the catheter. The valve assembly is movable between a first open position establishing communication between the receptacle chamber and the catheter lumen while the catheter is received in the channel, and a second closed position with the receptacle chamber closed from the channel. The valve assembly automatically substantially ejects the catheter from the channel responsive to movement of the valve assembly from the first to second position. |
