Abstract

A urine collection catheter having a tubular portion open at its outer end and designed to be connected to a urine receptacle and a cup or cone shaped portion integrally connected to the inner end of said tubular portion, the cup shaped portion being of a shape to conform generally with that of the tip or head or glans of a typical penis. The cup shaped portion has a pressure sensitive adhesive on the inner surface to enable the catheter to adhere to the head of a penis when the catheter is pressed into engagement with the penis. The cup shaped portion is conical and is connected to the tubular member by a bulbous portion to receive surges of urine. In one version, the thickness of the cup shaped portion decreases from its outer to its inner end.
