Product Overview:
Belly Bag Urinary Drainage Bag
The Belly Bag by Rusch improves dignity, mobility, and quality of life by having the bag worn at the abdominal area. Fastening around the waist by means of a woven belt with a quick-release buckle makes it suitable for men or women 24 hours per day.

Eliminates the problems associated with leg and bedside bags including inadvertent catheter extraction and leg bruising.
The Belly Bag is emptied by means of a drain tube with a twist valve that is in the approximate position of the urethra. An anti-reflux valve behind the catheter port prevents reflux urine flow.
Comes complete and ready to use with easy-to-fasten waist belt, anti-reflux valve, and soft nonwoven back panel. Sterile, 1000cc capacity.

Caregiver.
I am a CRna.
Take care of my wife.
My wife feels a lot more independent now that she has the belly bag. There is less odor when using it than with the Foley that has the long cord and can get tangled or caught in her wheelchair or on her crutches. When we go out she has told me that she feels a lot more confident about herself because of using the belly bag. I can't think of a thing that someone could say bad about it. Since it makes her feel better it cirtainly makes my life a lot better.

Total Retention at times..
If you have to wear a bag, I find this to be the best. You never have to adjust it when using,just empty. Most of the time I forget I have it on.

You can do it from a wheelchair, if you can slide your pants down (or pull your skirt up). I slide my pants down to about knee level; then I hook a bottle on the pants' top, and empty the bag into that. I am usually on the toilet when I do this, but it can be done in a wheelchair or any kind of seat, including a bed.

A:
The belly bag also comes in a style with a long tube for drainage. I have no idea if the tube in a problem while wearing the bag but it makes emptying it easier.
There is a spout with a twist-type valve that folds down to empty the bag. Hold the spout over the toilet, graduate container, bedpan, or urinal. Center the drain spout over the container, then twist the valve clockwise to open & drain. When the bag is empty, twist the valve counterclockwise to close.

Q:
can this be emptied while sitting in a wheelchair, or do i have to sit on a toilet?
As a nurse, my best guess is no. The inlet is large enough to connect to the outlet (open end) of a regular Foley catheter. A nephrostomy tube is much smaller than an indwelling catheter, so the open end would be too small to fit the connector/inlet.
