title: How to clean and maintain urinary leg bags: 'easy on the nose'.
abstract: People with a dysfunctional bladder may have to wear a urinary collection bag. The authors found that the current practice of rinsing leg bags with water and cleaning them in the Cidamatic washer did not fully clean the bags. A trial of cleaning with Urolux showed that the bags were cleaner, smelled better and lasted longer, as well as that the procedure was easy and cost effective.
