Benefits of Sage PrimaFit External Urine Management

  • Designed for females to help manage urinary incontinence

  • An alternative to incontinence pads and diapers, which can lead to skin breakdown and incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD)

 

What to buy with Sage PrimaFit?

 

How does Sage PrimaFit External Urine Management work?

When properly positioned, PrimaFit’s ultrasoft wicking fabric absorbs and diverts urine away from the patient’s skin. Urine is then absorbed into the system’s core and suctioned into a collection canister, helping keep the skin dry and addressing a risk factor of incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD).

 

Guidelines for Sage PrimaFit Catheter Application

Step 1: Set up suction canister with tubing per hospital protocol.

Step 2: Place patient in supine position and separate patient’s legs.

Step 3: Clean patient’s genital area from front to back per hospital protocol and assess skin integrity.

Step 4: Remove device from package.

Step 5: Attach suction tubing. Ensure connection to device is secure.

Step 6: Position device vertically with Tapered End Cap facing downward and white fabric facing patient’s labia.

Step 7: Align Tapered End Cap with perineum and place device between the labia and against the urethral opening. Ensure absorbent fabric is covering the urethral meatus.
