Just been informed that Coloplast are now supplying the new 'Simpla' range of leg bags as they've discontinued the ones I've been using for the past 19 years. Does anyone use this new range and can give opinions on them? I'm a bit worried as the tube appears to detatch from the bag itself and I don't want leakage. Or can anyone recommend a different bad? I currently use 750ml with a long tube (41cm) as I've a long leg.

What's the name of the one's you currently use?

I have used the same one's for the last 25 yrs, under one name or other and they do a 750ml tube:

Over the years there have been a few issues, shall we say but, I think no matter what one's you use, you are going to get some which are bad at some stage.

I use a 750ml "Conveen" legbag, ordered through Charter Health. The tube can be cut to desired length then just insert the push fit conector. Never had any leakage, or seperation. There is also a night bag to conect to too if required.

I use Hollister 32 Oz -- 900 Mil Capacity leg bags reorder # 9805 in my opinion best leg bags ever , they also have and 20 oz sizes . I tried other brands and hollister work the best for me . Yes they are pricey but very durable and reliable , easy to maintain no urine back flow from bag to tube or back to catheter. Same brand also for leg straps.


Bedside drainage bags I use Dover 2000 Ml ref 8887601600 Also no urine back flow from tube to catheter , work well.

I order mine online from athomemedical.com and or allegromedical
