Males with urine trouble, such as inability to use a urinal due to the use of only one hand or restrictions in movement due to spinal injuries, can be more independent in urination with the use of the MUDS.  Here are some helpful hints to promote efficient use of the MUDS.

     LYING FLAT ON YOUR BACK:   (Remember it is a gravity system) Slightly bend knee and place tubing under leg of choice. Place over penis with textured side up. Apply gentle pressure to groin area and press unit down gently into the scrotum. This will provide the appropriate angle for gravity drainage. The soft edge will not scratch or irritate. Do not leave tubing under leg for extended periods. It could cause pressure sores.

LYING FLAT ON YOUR BACK WHEN SPINAL PRECAUTIONS MUST BE MAINTAINED:  Use the 2 and 3 ft sections of tubing to form a 5 ft connection (remove the threaded connector from one end of each section of tubing, then use the connector provided to splice the 2 sections together) Hang the drainage container toward the foot of the bed. To use: run the tubing between the legs and use as above. If the bed is capable, slight reverse trendelenberg will greatly improve gravity drainage. This will allow the user to urinate independently and minimize to eliminate any leakage. Again, ensure that the tubing is against the bed when not in use to prevent falls.
