BACKGROUND: Strategies to decrease use of female indwelling urinary catheters and
catheter-associated urinary tract infections are challenging due to the limited
availability of proper fitting external collection devices. Female urinary
incontinence predisposes the skin to potential pain, itching, burning, infection,
or pressure injuries. CASE STUDIES: This article discusses 3 patients' trajectory
of care with use of an external female urinary collection device. All of these
females were incontinent of urine after the indwelling urinary catheter was
removed and managed with an external female urinary collection device.
CONCLUSIONS: The use of an external female urinary collection device is a
feasible alternative to an indwelling urinary catheter as well as managing
urinary incontinence.
