Abstract
Disclosed herein is a urinary collection system including a urine collection bag and a vacuum chamber coupled to the urine collection bag. The vacuum chamber is positioned in a vertical orientation. A top end of the vacuum chamber includes a drainage inlet and a vacuum port, and a bottom end of the vacuum chamber includes a drainage outlet. An isolation chamber is disposed between the vacuum chamber and urine collection bag, where the isolation chamber is configured to prevent reflux of urine from the urine collection bag into the vacuum chamber. A vacuum tube extends between the vacuum chamber and a vacuum pump. A plunger valve in line with an outlet of vacuum chamber is transitioned to a closed state when a vacuum is applied to the vacuum chamber and transitioned back the open state when the vacuum is removed from the vacuum chamber.
