About Convenient 소변 주머니

Convenient는 외출 시 소변 주머니를 착용해야 하는 환자를 위해 디자인된 휴대용 소변 주머니입니다. 일회용 용기는 1000ml를 담을 수 있으며, 서로 연결된 세 개의 단위 주머니로 구성되어 재사용 가능한 다리 밴드와 함께 착용합니다. 흡수성 고분자가 소변을 빠르게 응고시켜 냄새를 줄이고 움직일 때에도 내용물을 안정적으로 유지합니다. 가득 찬 단위 주머니는 버튼 밸브로 밀폐한 후 분리해 폐기할 수 있어, 주머니가 가볍게 유지되고 눈에 잘 띄지 않습니다. 사용자의 신체적 불편함과 심리적 부끄러움을 함께 줄이는 것이 이 디자인의 목표입니다.
