Proper drainage of big urine bag while in wheelchair

[cementhead]

So I’m trying to use a 2000ml bag sitting in my chair. It has a 40 inch tube. I put a discreet bag to hold it in back of my chair along with a tube cover. It seems like I can never get it to drain properly. I end up having to pull the hose out and lift it up to drain into the bag and then let it hang down in a big loop where it fills up and then I lift it up again to drain the bag periodically. I have not found any videos anywhere that show how to get the bag to drain properly without filling up the tube and then filling up my bladder.
anybody got any suggestions?

Is it possible you could put it in front of your chair? This is how I've used mine for the past five years. You see where the red arrows are. The bag conveniently hooks on the edge of the seat frame. I used two zip ties on this double hook bag. I would assume the biggest obstacle you're facing is the chair you're using. I noticed the newer chairs there's only one foot plate which will make it very hard to place there. This is one reason why I will be holding off for a very long time to get another chair.

You must assure that the bag is lower than your bladder, and that there are no dependent loops in the tubing. Dependent loops are those that are lower than the top of the urine level in the bag. Here is a picture of a dependent loop in bed. The same applies to when you are in your wheelchair:

so it can be rolled up as long as no loops are below the urine level in the bag?

In bed, it is best to coil it on the top of the mattress. In your wheelchair you may need to coil and secure with a rubber band or velcro strap. (KLD)

I attach a night bag to my leg bag when alone for long periods of time (if just staying home). I set it up like in the attached. It works well ... I think.

From my diagram, does it look like I have it set up correctly?

[SCI-Nurse]

No. You need to get rid of that dependent loop. (right above the shoe). Does it work to put the leg bag on your thigh instead of your calf? (KLD)

[C5QuadGuy]

Yeah, on the leg bag. I updated the picture.... I have a leg bag strap above knee, and 2 more straps on the calf. It's 1200ml leg bag FYI.

There is still a dependent loop between the leg bag and the bedside drainage unit. That needs to be corrected. Everything needs to flow downhill. (KLD)
