Abstract
A peritoneal waste bag support and drainage device having a pair of front legs, a pair of rear legs, and a flat horizontal table extending over the front and rear legs. The table has a front end, a rear end, a top surface, and a bottom surface. Each pair of legs has a main portion and a bottom sleeve. The main portion extends downward from the bottom surface of the table, while the bottom sleeve extends upward from the ground and envelopes the main portion of the legs. In order to adjust the length of the legs, the main portion is slid inside the corresponding bottom sleeve until the desired height to reached. When setting up the support device for drainage, in order to facilitate flow of fluid from a peritoneal waste bag, the front legs should be adjusted to a shorter height than the rear legs. Further, the device is collapsible in order to allow it be stored beside a toilet when not in use, or carried to various destinations when traveling.
